LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - The University of Kentucky has been dethroned in the national cheerleading competition.

The Lexington Herald-Leader reports that UK lost its title to the University of Memphis on Sunday.

Morehead State University won its 22nd national coed title in its division Saturday, according to the association.

Morehead's all-girl squad placed second.
