DAYTONA, Fla. (April 12, 2024) — The Morgan State Cheer Bears finished second in the Intermediate All Girl Division I after Day 1 competition at the NCA & NDA Collegiate Cheer and Dance Championship in Daytona, Florida.

Day 2 competition begins this morning with the Cheer Bears scheduled to perform at 12:20 p.m. at the Ocean Center Arena. The awards ceremony is scheduled for early Friday evening.
The Bears are looking to win their first national title in program history. They finished 3rd in 2008 (Intermediate Division) and 2nd in 2022. In the Advanced Division they finished 3rd in 2014 and 2nd in 2015. Last year's devastating torn Achilles injury on the warm-up mat left an enduring mark on the Cheer Bears. Determined to make amends, the Cheer Bears are looking to redeem themselves with a strong finish at this year's event.
The NCA & NDA Collegiate National Championship is open to the public and will be live streamed on Varsity TV. For more information about the event and to purchase tickets, visit
