Manchester is definitely the favorite here - stereotypical Andy Haines group with powerful vocals and classic choreo - but if a group is going to challenge them it will be Poca. Second Runner-Up on down is where results should be interesting. Cabell Midland made finals at Poca over some of these other groups, and i expect that they will keep the momentum from their finals placement. i've yet to see both Nitro and St. Clairsville, but i'm hearing this is a breakout year for Nitro, so i favor them for Third Runner-Up. as for the last spot, i've never seen Lee Davis or Martinsburg, but have heard enough good things about the latter to give them the benefit of the doubt. if neither school were to make it, i'd probably guess Herbert Hoover as Fifth Runner-Up.
I can't wait to see Martinsburg. I wish we were able to see them more often. They have a well respected program but rarely make it down this neck of the woods. I would look for them to place extremely well at this competition.
Wow...who would have thought a little bit of show choir drama would happen 3 weeks before our festival (lol) but seriously, all of the groups who are coming this year have an equal chance of winning...Nitro has a great show this year...I haven't seen VV yet but I'm sure they have a great show (they usually do...woot)...and Manchester may even do well...but grand champion is a toss up, our competition may not be "loaded" with "giants" but all groups should go and have a good time...because I know I have a good time hosting
