Both teams earned recognition across the board. For the first time, the dance team took the floor with a Home Routine which placed them in second place within a highly talented division. They also excelled in the Game Day (2

The cheer team made their first-ever appearance at the NCA College Camp, where they earned a bid to the 2026 NCA College Nationals after excelling in every segment of the camp evaluations. They won the Superior Spirit Rally Award and the Superior Crowd Segment Award with powerful performances and high crowd engagement throughout the week.
