DANCE

OK-- I haven't posted about dance in two weeks-- so an update on who we've been doing.....

On the 20th we were at Waconia- we danced against some teams that we know we'll see at state and the girls went out there and performed beautifully!! And took home first place!! We FINALLY beat New Ulm-- by 18 points too!!!

Then this weekend we were up against them again--- we had a sick team-- we had two girls miss 3 days of practice- and right before we went on we had 4 girls that thought they were going to get sick-- but they pushed through it-- but because they weren't feeling too well we had 2 pretty big mistakes and that energy and spark that was there on the 20th wasn't there this weekend- so New Ulm beat us--- BUT-- we had tied with our rank points- so they had to break the tie and we only lost by 2 total points--- and New Ulm HIT their dance and danced it VERY well--- so I was glad to know that we only lost by 2 when we know we didn't hit it and we had sick girls and they nailed their dance--- We call this DEFENSE-- we get them to think that they can beat us- so when it comes to state and our girls are healthy and NAIL their dance - victory will be that much sweeter!!!!

We are dancing on Monday- the 29- at the High School for parents night and then we have this weekend off- we will be at Sections in Zumbrota on the 10th- and then State is the 16th-- the season is almost over!
