Hermiston High School’s Stardust Dance Team took first place at the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association 2023 1A/2A/3A Dance/Drill State Championships for the second year in a row and third time since joining the WIAA.

Stardust placed first in the Hip Hop and Show categories on Friday, March 24, and second in Dance. The team brought home first in Dance and Show last year and first in Dance in 2019. The dance/drill state championships were not held in 2020 and 2021, due to COVID.

“The Hermiston School District and Hermiston athletics are very proud of our Stardust Dance Team,” said Director of Athletics and Activities Larry Usher. “These athletes put in countless hours to perfect their craft, and it is great to see them rewarded for all of that hard work.”
