Sorry I haven't updated all day! The Wi-Fi is locked at the high school and no one seems to know the password. Not even teachers. LOL! But the finalists listed above are in performance order. Here are full pre-lim results:
Women's Division:
1st- Oak Mountain Chanter
2nd- Homewood Legacy
3rd- Tupelo Soundwave
Congratulations to all Middle School division winners. So many great kids and parents. You represented your schools and communities with great class. Albertville appreciates your enthusiasm for our contest!! Best wishes to our high school competitors today!
BTW... If y'all missed the middle school solo winner tonight y'all missed a show! He was AMAZING! I don't remember where he was from or his name, but he played guitar and sang I'm Your's by Jason Mraz. One of the best solos I have EVER seen, middle or high school!
What about the girl?! And the two honorable mentions?! They were all flipping amazing

Anyone know what time large mixed division starts?
I'll be there beginning early in the morning so if noone beats me to it I'll post the entire schedule!
So excited to see all these wonderful groups at Albertville High School! It is going to be a great competition and we are all going to have so much fun! Good luck to everyone!
Some of these groups dont have backdrops from what I understand so that might speed it up just a little. But their is an incredible group of people working this who will be working hard to keep everything rolling. I remember going to Danville Illinois one year and not starting finals until 11:30 and we did awards at 3:00am. The set-up was tough. Instead of just walking onto stage you had two sets of stairs that were rolled together to walk down. When the steps were moved, it was a good 5-7 ft drop down to the stage. Made it real hard for choirs with large sets to move quickly.
Just think about what we would have to go through if we went there with this years set lol
I don't think I've ever been to a competition with FIFTEEN groups in the large mixed division! This is gonna be a LONG competition! This division alone for prelims is gonna be at least 4 hours and that's if its on time, which we all know... usually doesn't happen in show choir.
I'm really excited to get to see Homewood, Auburn, and Opelika's shows! And I'm especially excited to see Albertville's show on their own stage! It's gonna be amazing.
