North Eugene Dance Team

PEACHES Award – Justice Harrison-Unruh
This award represents something bigger than dance ability. PEACHES stands for Passion, Effort, Accountability, Coachability, Humility, Excellence, and Sportsmanship—and this dancer embodies all of it.
As our only senior and a two-year captain, Justice has led with consistency, strength, and heart. You set the tone for what this team can and should be.
You show up with passion, you put in the work, you hold yourself accountable, and you lead with humility and respect for everyone around you.
Your impact on this team goes far beyond this season—it’s something that will last.
We are so grateful for your leadership and everything you’ve poured into this program.
Congratulations, Justice.

2026 Rising Star Award – Addi Thompson
This award goes to a dancer who has shown incredible growth, initiative, and drive to improve. She is coachable, motivated, and hungry to level up her skills and abilities—and that mindset is exactly what leads to big breakthroughs and great talent.
Addi, you’ve truly taken ownership of your progress this year. From cross-training outside of practice to consistently working on your flexibility, you’ve shown what it means to be committed beyond just showing up.
We see your effort, and we’re so excited for your continued growth.
Congratulations, Addi!

Our Miss Congeniality 2026 – Anabelle Simmons!
This award is especially meaningful because it’s voted on by the team. It reflects how someone shows up everyday, not just for themselves, but for other.
When asked to describe this individual, their teammates said things like:
“You’re always positive. You’re kind, helpful, and welcoming. Even on hard days, you continue to show up and support others. You give feedback with respect, and you genuinely care about your team.”
That kind of character doesn’t go unnoticed—it shapes the entire culture of a team.
Anabelle, thank you for being such a steady, uplifting presence. We’re so lucky to have you! Congratulations 💕

Congrats to our 2026 Academic Excellence award winner, Lila Procopio!
This award recognizes a dancer who has demonstrated exceptional dedication not only in the studio, but in the classroom.
Earning a 4.0 GPA while balancing the demands of dance team AND lacrosse is incredibly impressive. It shows discipline, time management, and a strong commitment to excellence in everything she does.
Lila, we are so proud of the standard you have set so early in your high school career, and we’re excited to see all that you continue to accomplish.
Congratulations!

State 2026 was kinda fun

We’re honoring Justice for this senior Sunday.
This week marks the last competition and state championships for our one and only senior dancer. 🥹
Justice has been an excellent captain, and a star dance student and team member. She always keeps it real while holding kindness first. She’s been supportive not only to the other dancers on the team, but to our new coaching staff as well. A million thanks is not enough for all of the passion and effort she showed towards her team.
We are so excited for her future in the field of child development, and know that the skills she learned while on dance team (beyond leaps and turns) will carry her far in her life, wherever she goes.
NEDT FOREVER ❤️🤍

Come see our final performance before State!!
