The Blue Angels Competition Dance team were really on a roll this year as they brought home the honor of being State Champions for the second year in a row. Pearl River County School District Coach Sadie Penton led her ladies in competition against other High School teams in the Coliseum in Jackson on December 12th. The Mississippi High School Activities Association’s State Dance Championship is held each December and hosts 40 dance teams from different divisions.
