How were They? I understand this was their first finals appearance in some years.

I have to be careful with my response because where I volunteered gave me access to information that isn't public, so sorry for the generalities. They had a nice bee-themed show that stuck together well with good visuals. They had a better prelims run than finals run (in other words they weren't 10th in prelims), but it was fun to watch, and they deserved a top 10 placement. They aren't back to past levels or they would have won this contest, but as a building block it could be a sign of better things to come.

Great to hear! Anyone have or know where to find the prelims results?

What exactly happened to Westfield? I see a lot on here about how they used to be really good and they ‘fell off’, but I am unaware of the details on that matter

I'm actually unsure, but I think it had to do with all their good staff leaving and being replaced more inexperienced staff, as well as the area declining a bit. There placements faltered a bit in the late 2000s before plummeting aroumd 2012.

Phil Geiger won Nationals in 2003, and then he retired. That’s the gist of it.

On the topic of that show (the name is escaping me).. It was great. That is all.
