Unfortunately due to weather, Cabell Midland just got the word they will not be making the trip to Riverside. Best of luck to all other groups today.
So disappointing..was excited to see how the competition went with them there.
Finals predictions :
St. Clairsville
Hoover
Poca
Cabell-Midland
It will be interesting to see who takes this one! It seems like Cabell would be most likely to win, based on the results of this festival for the past couple years, but Poca has been practicing hard despite the water crisis and inclement weather, and it's certainly anyone's game!
I can't begin to guess the BV, BC, BB captions, but I will say Poca has some strong solos this year, and my money's on them to take at least one Best Soloist award.
It would be cool to see a new GC. Captions will def be a toss up..Ive heard good things about VV. Go St.C! Rep it up
Good luck to all groups competing! Let the WV season begin
P.S. I would give anything for this festival to cut out the excessive breaks. It really makes time go by so slowly, especially with only 6 groups competing.
