MSU Cheer Squads Sweep Nationals

Morehead State University

Morehead State University's cheerleading squads swept the Universal Cheerleaders Association (UCA) College Nationals, claiming national titles in partner stunt team, all-girl, and coed on Saturday in Orlando, Fla.

In the previous two years, coed had finished as national runner-up, but its performance in 2016 put them back atop the UCA, accomplishing the program's 24th national championship.

The final rankings finished as: (1. Morehead State, 2. Delaware, 3. Eastern Kentucky, 4. Missouri State, 5. Tennessee Chattanooga, 6. Wichita State, 7. Belmont).

The victory for all-girl marks its third straight championship, and their 11th overall.

The partner stunt team of Colin Tipps and Taylor DeSimone started the weekend off with a national title on Friday.

With the sweep of championships, MSU cheerleading now holds 39 UCA titles.
