How was Nationals?

Post by ILoveEgretsClub »

After looking at the "Did you medal at Nationals?" thread from 2009, I thought this was necessary.

How was Nationals? Did you medal? How did your team do? Better or worse than expected?

Better than I personally expected. I didn't think we'd make top 10 this year. :]

We did pretty good. We finished 26th overall, and medaled once(2nd place).

It was really fun! I now understand what it takes to be competitive at the national level, and my team got 14th in our fist year at nationals. Next season is going to be intense.
