MANILA, Philippines – It's cheerdance time once again!
As always, prepare to be amazed as 8 collegiate teams go all out in the UAAP Season 82 Cheerdance Competition on Sunday, November 17, 2 pm at the Mall of Asia Arena.
Last year, the NU Pep Squad reclaimed the cheerdance crown with a flawless Dia de los Muertos-inspired routine. The FEU Cheering Squad was also successful in its quest for a podium finish, coming in at 2nd place, while the 2017 champions Adamson Pep Squad finished 3rd last year.
This season, the defending champions got lucky with the draw as they landed the prime performance spot. (LOOK: UAAP Season 82 Cheerdance order of performance)

Hashtags to remember
