A little confused on how the scoring worked tonight

I believe (it was stated in the live stream), that in terms of the top 4, they had to figure out final placements based on who had a higher vocal score in prelims.

I interpreted what he said as ‘there was a tie for fourth so we broke it by prelim vocal scores’. I do not believe that the entire top four tied in finals.

There is an error in the middle school schedule. Manteno “Grand Paws” is competing Friday night., not Magic. Magic will be competing Saturday as listed.
