Here are some of our recent team selections as well as our overall scores. Remember - the lowest team score wins. To be the best the judge has to award you a first (or a 1) in each of seven different criteria like volume, memorization, fluency or articulation. If your event receives the best score possible it would be a 7. A team score is made up of your best 10 events - so the best possible score is 70. No one has ever gotten a 70! But we have come pretty close.
Will we do it next year? Check back with us and see.
