KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Madeline Soave, a senior member of the Siena Heights dance team, was named a NAIA All-American for the 2015-16 competitive season, as announced by the NAIA on Tuesday. Lauren Nowak and Lauren Fultz were both named NAIA All-American Honorable Mentions.

Athletes perform stunts in front of the qualifying competition judges and receive scores based on the quality of their routine. The performers must accumulate a predetermined score in order to achieve All-America status.

Soave is a veteran All-American, being previously named an NAIA All-American in the 2013-14 -- the inaugral dance season in the NAIA -- and 2014-15 seasons. Soave was the first All-American dancer at Siena Heights.

Fultz was named an All-American in the 2014-15 season while Nowak earned All-American Honorable Mention honors.
