Even in its new singstock form, New London continues its proud tradition of caption awards that make you want to really look at the judges sheets to find out what exactly happened (laughing emoji)
What I believe happened from what I heard last night is that St. Francis and Sauk Prairie tied during finals, but what the comp does to break the tie is then go by prelim placement scores. So as a result, Sauk Prairie placed better than St. Francis during prelims, so they took first place, even if St. Francis had more points towards the vocals and choreo caption awards during finals.
Sorry if any scc staff members are here, but I recorded all the prelims awards
