• While many have viewed the NHS Dance Team as a support to other Rockets sports, these athletes are coming into the fall geared for a spotlight of their own.

And this time, they have a plan that might just make it their best year ever. Sports producer Kristen Connors gets in step with their captains and coach to find out more.
