In this episode of No Counts Given, host Kyle Rush breaks down what’s shaping up to be one of the most electric Dance Team Union National Championships yet — just 10 days away. From recent DTU stops in Tulsa and Orlando to last year’s top-scoring benchmarks in Large Varsity Jazz and Medium Varsity Hip Hop, this episode is all about context, momentum, and what actually matters heading into Nationals weekend.

Kyle connects the dots between early-season results, late-season refinements, and the teams quietly building something dangerous at the right time. He highlights trends, flags potential underdogs, and talks through why these final competitions weren’t about trophies — they were about preparation.
