Central College earned a clean sweep in the Division II and III college ranks at the state dance competition last week.

Central Dance Coach Lexi Hanna tells KNIA/KRLS Sports the Central Dance team won in each dance category they performed in.

Hanna says while many colleges pick one or two styles to dance in, she says the Dutch compete in all three, which requires many hours of practice to perfect.
