Wilmington University Wildcat Cheerleaders Win Fourth UCA Small Coed Division II National Championship!

For the fourth straight year, the Wilmington University Wildcat cheerleaders were named 2015 UCA Small Coed Division II National Champions at the UCA/UDA College Cheerleading & Dance Team National Championships at ESPN Wide World of Sports in Orlando, FL. The team competed January 17-18 after a pep rally send-off at the University's Sports Complex. 

The Wildcat Cheerleaders performed their first cheer routine perfectly, which advanced them automatically to the championship round. The team then defeated Colorado Mesa University to earn the UCA Division II National Championship trophy. Over the weekend, first year team members Ryan Hertz and Kristen Basquill competed in the Coed Partner Stunt Finals.

The dynamic duo took fifth place among 13 other dual team entries at the national level. Wildcats Hertz and Basquill finished behind duos from Sam Houston State University, Morehead State University, The University of Memphis and The University of Georgia.
