Outstanding performances by Franklin Central and Waubonsie Valley (of course).
Waubonsie for vocals and FC for choreo. I think it is clearly between these two with the edge to Waubonsie.
Shaping up to be a great competition. In girl's action, Waubonsie Valley Girls in Heels had quite stellar vocals. I predict:
1. Waubonsie
2. Franklin Central
3. Hersey
In mixed action, Glenwood had a very solid performance, but it didn't blow me away. Thought they would after beating Wheaton Warrenville.
I think Homewood blew me away with their Men in Black show, but I don't really remember because they flashy-thinged the audience at the end.
Impressive that a choir that is perhaps number 15 in Indiana would probably be top 5 in any other state.
GC: Waubonsie Valley (BV)
1RU: Franklin Central
2RU: Glenwood (BC)
3RU: John Hersey
4RU: Homestead
5RU: Laffayette Jefferson
Some notes
- I can't bet against my all time favorite group (WV)
- There will be a 5-8 point spread between first and third
- This will be the best finals in the nation today
Franklin central has amazing vocals they are very clean and we're phenomenal last week at pike. WV has decent vocals but they're not beating FC. Idk Glenwood but beating who knows. Just predictions though.

Glenwood beat Wheaton AND Twinsburg. At the same competition. And won BC.
Waubonsie was underwhelming via live feed (yeah--I know it's just a live feed), but their vocals tend to be unstoppable (this is the group that beat CLINTON last year). I'm under the impression that WV will not get below 1RU simply because they are WV.
The only prediction I'll make is that Waubonsie takes vocals. Our sound system wasnt the greatest and in the gym, they are magical! Don't trust the live feed!

Granted I've only seen Franklin Central live, a live stream of Waubonsie, and videos of Glenwood, I still believe FC's truly spectacular vocals paired with their great show design will put them over the top in this one.
If this happens, the show choir world might explode. ALL DA UPSETS

Jeff, Norwell will be at competing at Center Grove's Invitational this weekend.
Thanks, Preston. I did notice that once I added the CG event on here. Glad to see that they just switched competitions and didn't take another weekend off.
