The ULM Hawkline consists of up to 14-22 dancers. We perform jazz, hip-hop, and pom
dances throughout the year for different functions on-campus such as: football games,
men’s and women’s basketball games, baseball games, the Miss ULM Pageant, Christmas
at ULM, and pep-rallies. The squad may also perform and participate in off-campus
events as well. Hawkline attends a summer camp with ProAction Dance in Las Vegas,
NV, and may attend UDA or NDA summer camp as well, depending on funds. Each year Hawkline
participates in the American Collegiate Championship in Denton, TX in March, and may
also participate in UDA or NDA Nationals depending on funds.
Hawkline practices up to 3/4 times a week to learn and perfect choreography. Practices
are held during the academic school year on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturday
mornings of Game Days. Team workouts are at 6:00am on Tuesday and Thursday mornings
during the academic school year. We also attend a technique class on Friday evenings
during the Fall Semester.
Your ULM Hawkline is back-to-back National Champions. They are the reigning 2020 American
