QUOTES WITH COACH KK:Â
"
After a shaky performance Friday night, the team refocused for Saturday's performances and were able to secure high scores, resulting in the top overall placement for the 15-team competition. This team performed with energy, stamina, and technique from top to bottom. We are eager to get back in the studio and continue working and building our routine."
