Outstanding performance, Clarksville! Visually the best group to perform tonight in finals. Love the drum break as well. Also a big fan of "Fly to Paradise" at the end. Definitely in the running for gold. Congrats on a great season, y'all!

Rivercrest just got past Clarksville by one. Interestingly, if had been ranked one spot higher by either visual judge, Clarksville would have won the tiebreak. So close. Speaks to just how competitive this field was tonight.
