H-M-S dancers perform in Des Moines

Four Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Dance Attack members traveled to Des Moines last week to perform as part of the All-Iowa Honor Dance Team.

Jamie Diaz, Kinsey Schirmer, Delaney Murphy and Emma Vollink were four of the 238 dancers representing 98 Iowa high schools on the team, which performed during the Iowa girls' state basketball tournament. The H-M-S quartet is coached by Brittany Dolphin.

All-Iowa Honor Dance Team members were chosen based on ability, attitude, dedication and leadership qualities following auditions last fall in Newton. Less than 50 percent of those who tried out made the cut for the team.
