The University of Delaware Synchronized Skating team travelled to Richmond, VA to compete in the Eastern Sectional Championship on Saturday, January 30. The team won the competition for the 17th time in program history.
"We are a group of 25 young, talented and intelligent women whose passion and love for the sport has brought us together from all over the country" said team member Kelsey Daniels. "We have had to overcome many adversities and obstacles in order to (earn) 17 Eastern Sectional (Championships) and several national titles. Taking time to accept one another and work together is how we become a cohesive unit. Our genuine, caring and friendly attitudes have created a sisterhood and a home away from home."
The team is coached by UD Alumni and former team member, Wendy Deppe, and National Ice Dance Competitor, Megan O'Donnell. More information on the team can be found on their website and by following them on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.
