Fans of college dance teams are eagerly anticipating the rematch in Division 1A between the University of Minnesota and the Ohio State University at this year’s udadance Nationals. Last year, uofmdanceteam took first in Division 1A Pom and ohiostatedanceteam took second; and in Division 1A Jazz, OSU took first and U of M placed second.

For sisters Ellie (elliewagner13) and Ava (avawagner22) Wagner, this year’s Nationals will cap off nearly two decades of competing both with and against each other. Ellie, a senior at OSU, will take the mat for the last time with her teammates and against her sister, Ava, a sophomore at U of M.
