***The St. Anthony meet was our largest meet. There were around 425 students competing at this meet. Also, this was our first meet with finals. So first, the students have to perform in 3 rounds and make it to finals. Then they have to compete once more in front of 3 judges against the best people in their category. Despite the huge competition, Wyatt Borst WON the humorous competition. St. Anthony are the "Huskies" so for a trophy, he took home a little stuffed husky with a blue ribbon. The last time we placed at St. Anthony was when Brandon Fabel placed his senior year.
**This past weekend we had great success at Dassel Cokato.
Dassel Cokato gives out a charger award for a team member who plays a big roll but maybe doesn't always get up on stage. This award was given to Evelyn Chvala for her hard work in a new category this year.
Peyton Tietz and Lily Werverka got 3rd place and Ellie Coffel
Wyatt Borst got 2nd place in Duo.
Avery Lueck got 6th in Poetry. Lily Springer got honorable mention in humorous. Lily Werverka placed 5th in honors finals in humorous.
And again Wyatt Borst won humorous. This kid is on fire this year.
