I know 2017, their second year at SA, Pearland was able to increase their score 9.575 points from a 78.275 at Conroe to a 87.850 at SA. And that 87.850 actually got them 17th. Just looking back from 2016 SA to 2017 SA, it looked like Pearland had something to prove and it led to a increase in 11 spots. Last year 2018 SA Pearland got 25th. At Houston this year they got a score of 82.4 and look like they have something to prove again. If they increase by 9.575 points again that would be enough to get them into finals this year. Like Daniel says, Pearland keeps on getting underscored.
