FROM THE VOICE OF HEAD COACH REGAN VAN WIE

"We went down as a team to do the very best we could have, and we did! This year has been all about trusting the process, and we did so. We are not just only the McKendree University Dance Team, we are also a family. We thank The College Classic for giving us this opportunity to show them what we are as a team. We also thank the McKendree athletic department and the president for letting us get to go and experience an amazing nationals event that we will never forget!"
