Howard University Ballroom Dance Team Seeks Historic Win at National Competition

Howard University Ballroom Dance Team Seeks Historic Win at National Competition
Posted By: Will Moss on February 04, 2026


Howard University, one of the nation's premier Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), has an exciting opportunity for its renowned Ballroom Dance Team to make history this year. Thanks to the dedication and leadership of student Brock Montgomery, the team is poised to compete at the highest level and potentially become the first HBCU team to win a prestigious national ballroom dance competition.

The Howard Ballroom Dance Team has long been a source of pride for the university and the broader HBCU community. Founded in 2010, the team has consistently showcased the immense talent and artistry of Howard University students, competing against top programs from around the country. However, this year, the team is aiming to reach new heights with the guidance of Brock Montgomery, a senior who has been instrumental in the team's preparations.

Key Takeaway: The Howard Ballroom Dance Team is poised to make history as the first HBCU team to win a prestigious national ballroom dance competition, thanks to the leadership and dedication of student Brock Montgomery.

As the captain and choreographer of the Howard Ballroom Dance Team, Brock Montgomery has worked tirelessly to refine the team's routines and push the dancers to new levels of excellence.



His passion for ballroom dance and his commitment to representing Howard University on the national stage have inspired his teammates and garnered the support of the entire HBCU community.

The team's upcoming competition at the National Collegiate Ballroom Competition in April will be a true test of their skills and determination. Facing off against top programs from across the country, the Howard Ballroom Dance Team will have the opportunity to showcase their exceptional technique, creativity, and teamwork on the national stage.

"This is the moment we've been working towards for years. We're ready to prove that HBCUs can compete with the best in the country and bring home the national title."

The significance of this opportunity cannot be overstated. If the Howard University Ballroom Dance Team emerges victorious, it would mark a historic achievement for the HBCU community and inspire countless young dancers to follow in their footsteps.

HBCUConnect.com is proud to support the Howard Ballroom Dance Team and their pursuit of this groundbreaking victory. Their success would not only bring national recognition to Howard University but also showcase the immense talent and potential of HBCU students in the world of competitive ballroom dance. The entire HBCU community is rallying behind the team, and we eagerly await the results of the upcoming national competition.
