Great job by everyone on Saturday. Special props to Norwalk....awesome dynamics and vocals. You guys were dynamite! Very competive finals. Thanks to DCG for hosting a high quality event!
No, if I remember correctly from last year, MS competes with MS, 1A/2A competes with itself, and then 3A against 3A
No- I think middle schools compete aginst each other for a championship in their class- then it is open class for 1A/2A and 3A - so there is an overall champion for the high school groups
