The Todd Beamer High School dance team recently took second place in the Championship Small Hip-Hop Division at the USA National Competition in Anaheim, California.

Dancers from across the country competed March 30 and 31, and the Titans made it to the top two, along with a team from California.

The award-winning Todd Beamer High School dance team holds nine state titles, and won a National Championship in 2016. The 12-member team is coached by Debbie Yaranon. Team captains are Hannah Kim and Destinie Okoli. Their hip-hop routine this year was choreographed by Daniel Cruz.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and the performances begin at 7 p.m.
