Pitt Cheerleaders Win National Championship
4/9/2019 4:00:00 PM | General
The University of Pittsburgh Cheer and Dance Teams annually rank among the finest in all of college athletics. That lofty stature was reaffirmed this past week with a pair of outstanding performances—including a first-place finish—at the National Cheerleaders Association (NCA) and National Dance Alliance (NDA) Collegiate National Championships held April 4-6 at Daytona Beach, Fla.
With more than 320 universities from across the country in attendance, the Panthers' Cheerleaders claimed the national championship for Division I Small Coed. A perennial top-10 finisher, Pitt's Cheer Team broke through this year to win its first national title since 1994. Additionally, the Panthers' Dance Team placed an impressive sixth in the Division I-A Team Performance competition.
The Cheer and Dance teams have been coached the past 36 years by Theresa Nuzzo. A former Pitt cheerleader herself, the Panthers' spirit teams under her watch have not only thrived competitively but are also considered one of Pitt's most visible ambassador groups throughout Western Pennsylvania and beyond.
