Well geez...I guess there is no love of Eau Claire this year. I really do think our show is pretty good and even though people have a little controversy over the standings at Milton we did beat Fort, Hastings, Monona Grove, and Davenport West. I'm not in anyway saying we have them beat I am just saying that is the way things panned out and we are so far having a very good year so don't forget about Eau Claire...And hey Jenny B from Altoona, this is Johnny B from Eau Claire.

1RU Fort Atkinson
2RU Mayville
3RU Parkview
4RU Eau Claire
5RU Monona Grove
these groups are all near the same level, so it doesnt really matter how I rank them... the placements will totally depend on the execution of each show! this will make it all the more exciting!
Ah, whoops, i only put five in. Thanks alex. Yes, i guess Manteno is going to be good, i think i'll take your word for it.

6th: Eau Claire/Parkview
That looks pretty good, 'cept we (altoona) are also doing rather good this year and will prob. be up there in the finals. Not so sure about Parkview. I heard they lost a lot of veterans. Last year was kinda a rebuilding year for us, but his year we are mostly veterans. Good luck to everyone!!!
You're forgetting about Manteno. They are one of the best small-schools in the country and almost beat Mt. Zion last year (which just won Onalaska). They made finals at most of their other competitions as well. Since you only put 5 finalists in there I'd bring Manteno straight to the top and move everyone else down a notch. I'm also thinking Mayville will get in. I can't wait to see them @our comp, Fort, and Brodhead.

I just got back from the Milton Invitational...which i'm angered about...i don't agree with the judging...but anyways, Milton has very strange judging and i'm not making my decisions based on their judging, but based on my, my show choir, Monona Grove, and other show choir's judging. Fort Atkinson, first off, is very good this year...you'd be amazed. Also, Hastings, as usual, is good. As for us, we're doing to show our stuff this year, last year was quite an off year for us, and we're making up for it! You'll see, those of you who haven't seen our show. As for Eau Claire, they made finals at Milton, even though Fort, Hastings, and Us all didn't make it! Which is really odd and pissed off all of us. But like i said, Milton's judging isn't right. And as for Parkview, well, they're parkview, and i've heard they aren't quite as good as last year. (Narrowly beat us in finals at Holmen). Well, what do you all think of my predictions?
I'm with my good pal jeremy up there. you cant say how good a school's show is based on one competition, especially when we learned the end of it a week before.

If it's any consolation, half our show wasn't finished in time for Onalaska, so we had to cut a lot out of the show. So I really wouldn't use our show at Onalaska as a basis for how the whole year is gonna go until we get everything put in and stuff. If we still stink then, then so be it.

Sorry Jorge, but I have to disagree. Logan prob. won't be in finals and if they are, they won't be ahead of Monona grove. Have u ever seen Altoona or Eau Claire perform? Last year Altoona took 4th and Eau Claire took 3rd, if I recall.
