Actually Chi-hi was planning to attend but Hastings never gave us confirmation so we we're forced to find another comp to go too. We're all very sad about this.
Early Predictions
GC- Ankeny Centennial "Spectrum" (BV)
1RU- Bemidji "Vocalmotive" (BC)
2RU- Wheaton South "The Classics"
3RU- Waukee "Millennium"
4RU- Bloomington Jefferson "Connection"
5RU- Ankeny Centennial "Eternal Rush"
I think ankeny will almost certainly take the best vocal caption, but for the choreography caption I see it flipping between bemidji and wheaton. This is such an epic competition with the best of Iowa, Illinois, and Minnesota. It's also going to be interesting to see who makes finals. I think that Waukee is most certainly going to place, and then the other schools that have a competitive chance of making it are st. Francis, south st. Paul, and Bloomington Jefferson. I also think that Eternal Rush could make it based off of how they will do at Linn Mar competing against CR Washington Celebration and the advanced mixed groups their.
We don't have performance times at this point -- but are very excited to welcome the following groups to Swingin' on the River 2019.
