Congratulations to Fort Mill High School Colorguards

Their 1st performance on Friday night in front of a live audience was followed by an amazing showing at their first competition on Saturday at Northwestern High School.

Cadets – 3rd Place out of 9

Blue – 1st Place

Gold – 2nd out of 11.

We can not wait to see what you all do in 3 weeks in Knoxville.

Apologies in advance for not having a picture of the Blue team to post. I will work on that for next week.
