I have to say this was an amazing day!! All the groups were spectacular!
But I must say Gahanna was absolutely wonderful!! I've never heard any other choir with that good of blend and intonation! They were all so humble and just so happy to be there it was amazing! I had a chance to talk to their piano player and she was telling me all about there program and how amazing of a day it was to be there. They had nothing but class and humbleness. I'm so glad I got to see them perform!
Thanks for the update, Dylan! I'm glad to see Buckeye Valley in finals. I was a fan of them when I saw them perform at Walsh Jesuit earlier this month. It's also clear Gahanna Lincoln needs to attend more competitions! They disappear from the scene for several years and then casually come back and win 2RU.

Cool to see Gahanna Lincoln competing for the first time since 2010. They are going to be a wild card here, as in 2010 at Marysville they received best vocals while finishing in 5th place!
