Mitchell is good this yeat. I can't wait for Wheaton now.
Truthfully, I think Mitchell is phenomenal every year. They consistently have entertaining shows. Ankeny Centennial seems stuck in 2nd place, but that's still an excellent placement. I look forward to seeing both shows at some point. Congrats to all groups!
Maybe I need to see the second half of Ankeny Centennial's show, or maybe there's a lot of really amazing groups, but it is crazy to me that AC is not completely dominating this season. Just from the Youtube video alone that I've seen, I was impressed. Tough competition in Iowa for sure.
First, I want to say that centennial killed it. I swear, Lester Miller is one of the best (if not THE best) directors out there, and this show proves it.
my opinion after seeing finals:
6th: kennedy
5th: southwest
4th: johnston
3rd: Millard west
2nd: mitchell (came close to putting MW here)
1st: Ankeny (sweep)
I strongly agree with your predictions. I was so impressed with Millard West! BUT I feel Johnston is gonna place ahead of them. What a good finals!

Glad to see someone else that gets it. Ankeny Centennial's show is THE show of the year as far as I'm concerned, and I just watched Waubonsie.

Ho-lee cow, Millard west! I am a believer. Incredible show. You guys have come leaps and bounds from when I was competing! You should all he very proud of your hard work. Very high energy and precise show. No bad solos, either. Great job, guys!
