Just an FYI - there is no Overall Effect award at this comp. They give Best Visuals, Best Vocals, Best Band, Best Male Soloist and Best Female Soloist in a show.
Updated. I'll keep in mind for live feed predictions, if applicable.
The point spread predictions are (Vocals, Choreography, Overall Effect). So, I'm also predicting a point spread of ten points between 1st and 6th, and seven if it's 1st to 5th. I also predict that Burroughs and Carmel will tie for first, broken by BV.

*UPDATE reflects BB instead of OE. I believe it's still part of the score though. (?)*
Hastings is undefeated and that is amazing however, looking at their competitions they haven't had to compete against top notch groups (Not trying to take away anything from the groups they have competed against at all)

Yes, there will be a live stream! The live stream link will be available via the @ChoralClassic Twitter page and Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/WWSChoralClassic/?fref=ts) next weekend.
I haven't seen Hastings this year, but like some other Minnesota groups, it's not always certain if their sound and style will be appreciated by the panel here. That being said, in regards to the panel, I think it will end up something like this:
GC; Carmel (BV/BC)
2nd: WV
3rd: John Burroughs
4th: Buffalo Grove (BB)
5th: Hastings
6th: Napperville North
Carmel is unstoppable. Dwight and John simply make an amazing team. They will definitely be in a close battle with WV.
This is all my opinion you guys, but I honestly the top spot going to any of these three groups:
Waubonsie
John Burroughs
Hastings
I'm calling an upset on this one and I am going to say that Hastings is going to spoil this competition for some groups. 1RU and 2RU can both swap spots (Waubonsie and John Burroughs). This is all meant for good sport, and in no way am I trying to upset anyone with my predictions. Good luck to everyone competing and I'm really looking forward to see how this one turns out.
