The team placed ninth in the medium varsity High Kick division and improved their score 18 points from last year.<\/p>\n<p>The competition was attended by dance, pompon and drill teams from all over Michigan, which were categorized by size and level of the team. The teams could then compete in the divisions of hip hop, jazz, contemporary pom and high kick. High School High Kick was the biggest event, taking up the entire afternoon competition while the other events occurred in the morning. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was the best we\u2019ve ever done,\u201d sophomore Rebecca Lowery said.<\/p>\n<p>Each team competing in High Kick generally has a \u201ctheme\u201d to their routine, with choreography, costumes, and music going with that theme. This year, DHS\u2019s was Ghostbusters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI loved our theme,\u201d Lowery said. \u201cIt was fun and different from all the others.\u201d<br \/>\nThere are some things that Lowery said can be improved on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNext year we\u2019ll add more dancing and creativity,\u201d Lowery said. \u201cBecause we really realized this year it was more of a dance competition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The team was very happy with how they did and will compete at regionals at Heritage High School Jan. 28.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Varsity team improves score 18 points from last year<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,6],"tags":[45,44],"class_list":["post-2738","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-3feature","category-3-sports","tag-dow-high-sports","tag-sports-stories"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pompon has strong showing at EMU - UPDATE ONLINE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/update.midlandps.org\/index.php\/2011\/11\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Pompon has strong showing at EMU - UPDATE ONLINE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Varsity team improves score 18 points from last year\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/update.midlandps.org\/index.php\/2011\/11\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"UPDATE ONLINE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DHSUpdate\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2011-11-03T07:14:49+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2012-01-03T07:18:59+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Update\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@DowHighUpdate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@DowHighUpdate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Update\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Update\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/be39f258dafaaac3e98f5951fe5e9198\"},\"headline\":\"Pompon has strong showing at EMU\",\"datePublished\":\"2011-11-03T07:14:49+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2012-01-03T07:18:59+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":222,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#organization\"},\"keywords\":[\"Dow High Sports\",\"Sports Stories\"],\"articleSection\":[\"FEATURE\",\"SPORTS\"],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"CommentAction\",\"name\":\"Comment\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/#respond\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/\",\"name\":\"Pompon has strong showing at EMU - UPDATE ONLINE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2011-11-03T07:14:49+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2012-01-03T07:18:59+00:00\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/index.php\\\/2011\\\/11\\\/pompon-has-strong-showing-at-emu\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/update.midlandps.org\\\/\",\"name\":\"UPDATE ONLINE\",\"description\":\"H.H.
