Prairie High School was ranked at 1st place during the day rounds as well as when they took home 1st last night! Ankeny was ahead by one point on vocals during the day round, and I'm not sure about vocals at night. However, Ankeny didn't put up huge choreography numbers against the Ambassadors during the entire day. (Day/Night)
Congrats to Prairie and Mr. Sands. I have a feeling that a dynasty is just beginning at Prairie. Success seems to follow Sands, as it should! Congrats and I can't wait to see you at Urbandale.
Congratulations to Cedar Rapids Prairie! Wow! These results definitely make me way more excited for Urbandale's competition.... and I was already very excited.
Okay, so I used to be super careful about only saying things that wouldn't get people upset - especially since it's a reflection on my school and everything. But I've been out of the show choir world for several years, so I don't really feel that "affiliated" or whatever. That and I'm old so I dont' care. Everybody calm down and let me give my personal opinion <:
Here's how I'd rank the day:
GC) Lincoln Southwest
1RU) Ankeny
2RU) Iowa City West
3RU) Cedar Rapids Prairie
4RU) Millard West
5RU) Ankeny Prep (disclaimer: didn't see them today. I just know they're usually amazing)
BV: LSW
BC: Ankeny
BB: Ankeny
Ankeny came out and blew everybody away with their opener. It was phenomenal. They're perfect show choir robots made in Santa's show choir workshop. But after that, a lot of the perfection and awesome wasn't as present. I think LSW did a better job of maintaining an excellent show throughout. They drew me in the whole time. So kudos!
Then again, DoJo is judging, and he hates tap... So we'll see ;)
Edit: My friends inform me that I'm stupid and that southwest will get third at most. <: So take what I say with a grain of salt.
Ruin their show halfway through, give them sportsmanship to apologize.
I know Ankeny took first. That's about all I remember.
BTW, prairie got 4/5 1st places in finals from the judges. They really killed it.
