Feb 14 2025: IHSA Day 2 wrap-up and Comp Wknd 12

Episode Summary

We go a bit deeper into the Day 2 teams from IHSA state, looking at the links between a team's Day 2 experience and their season-long experience --the arcs, high and lows, and good stories. Where does hip hop thrive in the IHSA ecosystem? And is there a pom-hip hop connection? Can a pure kick routine do well, or does it have to be a jazz hybrid? We've got wrap-ups from "Last Chance Weekend' in IDTA. And it's Comp Weekend 13: TWO nationals comps, and IDTA State! We dive into the crossovers between IHSA and IDTA state teams, and the gigantic differences between the two events.
