UK Dance Team Heads Into Finals In 1st!

Watch LIVE - UCA & UDA College Cheerleading & Dance National Championship!
If you watch a dance team compete live at the UDA College Championship, make sure it’s the University of Kentucky in hip hop!

Watch them LIVE today; the UK hip hop team will be performing at 3:06PM EST.

They’ll be taking the stage and heading out of semi finals in first place for the first time in history. This team really took a risk this year with their music and style, and now they’re seeing the payoff. The girls strutted out on stage with a routine to remember; the music was not your traditional hip hop sound, and their style strayed from the usual hard hitting, angry vibe we’re used to seeing from hip hoppers. They opened with a whacking section and added a feminine touch with props!

Will they hold their place at the top? You won’t want to miss their performance LIVE on Varsity TV!

Watch the day 1, semi final performance that made history:
