Slight edit to the Friday night schedule. Cashton is now performing at 6:20pm and Logan Middle is performing at 5:40pm. Stage and lights are set! Let's go!
Indeed. Not sure if you're simply clarifying for the comments or the event page above. But at least above, we have performance times listed now since that's a helpful thing to know and then once Saturday evening hits the event page automatically adjusts to display it as exhibition only (as opposed to placement ribbons or placement unknown). This is a newer feature Häakon added within the past year or so. You can look back to Logan's page last year to see what that looks like.
5 varsity groups (with a highly anticipated 6th) are coming off of Grand Champion victories. This one will be good!
It'll depend on judges, too. But man, kids kill it! Leave it all, and give them your best!
Predictions that will most likely be wrong
GC: Lincoln Southwest (Sweep)
1RU: GCS
2RU: Hilltoppers
3RU: St. Francis
4RU: Bloomington Kennedy
5RU: Sioux Fall
Women's Divisions
GC: Vivace
1RU: East Side Swingers
2RU: YTBN
This is going to be really close too. I can see ESS passing Vivace for the GC but, at the same time, I can see YTBN passing both of them for it. But, don't sleep on Vivace and their two-year streak at Logan. All I know is this is going to be a fun competition.
Prep Divison
GC: Lincoln Prep (BC)/Express (BV) (This is going to be really close) I can see both groups switching Caption Awards
1RU: See Above
2RU: Sparta
Best of Luck to all Competing Groups

This is looking to be a GREAT competition...
Five of these groups have already swept this season (GCS, Lincoln Southwest, Onalaska, Bloomington Kennedy, St. Francis). Not to mention Holmen coming close behind first and Sioux Falls Washington's GC, both taking Best Vocals captions at competitions. Add Sauk, with their incredible story telling and performance factor and I'm very interested to see how this will all play out!
Still early on but after two competition weekends here are my predictions:
GC: La Crosse Central
1RU: Lincoln Southwest
2RU: Onalaska
3RU: Sioux Falls Washington
4RU: Bloomington Kennedy
5RU:St. Francis
There’s still a lot of time, a lot of things will change, but here’s where I think it’s at right now.
I believe that these schools will be at the Logan Showcase in 2019:
Holmen
Onalaska
Lincoln Southwest
Sioux Falls Washington
St. Francis
Sauk Prairie
Bloomington Kennedy
Altoona
West Salem
Madison East
Tomah
Logan Showcase 2019
