But in the halls of some local schools, the genre is seeing a revival.

These teens are trying to save go-go. Can the music save them, too?
A new generation of D.C. teens is discovering the power of go-go music, thanks to a revival effort in local schools.

After three torn ACLs and a first pitch gone awry, Croix Bethune is thriving once more for the Washington Spirit — and one game away from at last playing in an NWSL final.

Gotham was the better team for a lot of the match so it's a fear result. The way KC dominated the league this season I expected a better showing from them. Gotham wasn't the average 8 seed though... #NWSLPLAYOFFS
