THE J.E.B. STUART DANCE TEAM placed third in the Hip Hop category at the United Dance Association’s championship competition last week, held at Paul VI Catholic High School in Fairfax. It was the team’s second consecutive year at the competition. The girls placed second last year in Hip Hop. This time round, the girls performed both hip hop and jazz routines. The team also took on new team members this year, along with a new head coach, Betsy Finch. The girls will be competing with the same two dances at their last competition of the season on Sunday, Dec. 5. (Photo: Courtesy Alissa Wunder)
