drill team!

This passed weekend we competed in Delta, Utah. It was my first competition as a coach so I was so nervous and anxious!! Friday night was the solo competition, in which two U'ettes competed. Chelsea Richens (I choreographed her solo) placed 2nd and Felisha Newman placed 3rd. They both did an amazing job and I'm excited to see them excel at other competitions.

They first competed the Hip-Hop routine. Everyone loved their costumes and dance. They executed it great and we definitely reached our goal which was to master Lifting and Showmanship. Results: 1st place

2nd was Military which was choreographed by Robin McClellan (the Military Master). They performed it so well that I got chills even after the dance was over! They were soo sharp and did an excellent job. Results: 1st place

3rd was Dance which was choreographed by Rachel Larson. Her choreography is so wickedly cool and so unique that no other team has anything close to ours but the girls could have had more energy. They performed it well though and I'm very proud. Results: 2nd place

4th was Kick which was choreographed by me. Right after dance, Maddie twisted her ankle again and couldn't dance on it so an alternate was put in at the last minute. My adrenaline and stress levels finally peaked! Luckily Brittany was prepared and did an amazing job. The judges really liked the choreography!! yay! Results: 1st place

Drill down: 5 girls all from Uintah took drill down aka swept it fo sho! I'm so proud of my girls for working so hard and focusing.

All in all, it was a great 1st competition to the season. Now all we have to go is up!
