So much talent! Spots 1-4 , It was easy to pick who, but picking the final order outcome for these 4 was definitely difficult. Spots 5snd 6...so much talent here too. Fantastic choreography from Manteno!
Wheaton Warrenville, wow!!! Your vocals are spot on and powerful!
What a day at El Paso yesterday. One of the hottest gyms I've been in (shoutout Colby), and so many staple Illinois groups I got to see for the first time. Some highlights of my day:
Herscher: Absolutely the standard in the 'less than 25 performers' class of groups. The vocal precision in that show was top-notch for a group of its size, and every single member held their own visually as well. Huntley: I will always shout out a first-year show choir program. I was so happy to see so many performers and band members. The journey in show choir will take a few years, but you guys are certainly headed down the right path. Crete-Monee: Forget one or two steps ahead, y'all are like a full five steps ahead of where I saw you last season. Great work! Your show was the funnest of the day, I never stopped smiling. Enjoy your well-deserved podium finish! Quincy: No one in the gym really knew what to expect from you guys before the performance. I think you exceeded most people's expectations. The show was solid both vocally and visually. I hope the younger performers in the group really take this seriously because there's some great potential in this group. Sauk Prairie: Thank you for representing Wisconsin so well yesterday, both in the product you put on stage and in your conduct around the competition. It feels so weird to me that this is your highest placement of the season - perhaps your directors should get you away from La Crosse more often All jokes aside, Exec impressed everyone I talked to. Second was well-earned!
