2020 NAIA Competitive Dance All-Americans Announced
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) has announced Tuesday the 2020 NAIA Competitive Dance (CCD) All-America teams. To achieve NAIA All-America or Honorable Mention status, student-athletes participate in a try-out.
Officials judge the athletes during the try-out and All-Americans are determined by the judges' scores. An athlete must score at least a total of 12 in order to be considered for honorable mention and one must score at least a total of 16 in order to be considered for All-America. The CCD Coaches Association officers then confirm the list of scores and athletes.
The All-America teams are designated by "All-America" and "Honorable Mention" status. This is the fourth championship season for the sports of Competitive Dance.
The 2020 NAIA National Championships are hosted by St. Ambrose University and will take place at the Lee Lohman Arena from March 13-14.
