TOPEKA – Today, Governor Laura Kelly welcomed the Kansas State University Classy Cats to the Statehouse to recognize the team’s 1A Pom National Championship title. Governor Kelly signed a proclamation declaring May 23, 2022, as “Kansas State Classy Cats Victory Day.”
“It is my great pleasure to welcome our very own K-State Classy Cats to the Statehouse to celebrate their first national title in the program’s history,” Governor Laura Kelly said. “After an incredible year, this talented group of young women became national champions thanks to their hard work and determination. They’ve made Kansas proud and have inspired so many young dancers across the state.”
The K-State Classy Cats were named national champions for Division 1A last month at the College Classic National Invitational in Orlando, Florida, where they defeated runner-up Arizona State by 0.3 points in the final.
