I had no idea GCS was returning to Viking Cup (after 7 years)! They should have just stayed on the other side of the river and competed with the Millard groups at Lewis Central.
Anyways, congrats to Burke & Blair for making finals!

Congrats to GCS on their season and I am so proud of all of you! Everybody was fantastic today and the competition was wonderful overall!
Does anybody have any information on the Viking Cup this weekend? Their website hasn't been updated in a while and I think that Kurt Runestad is judging, but that's all I know.
Anyways, congrats to Burke & Blair for making finals!
