Days 3 and 4 of Nationals featured many group dances, four of which made it to the Showcase on the final day! Group dances, solos, and duets performed with high scores and judges awards. Special shoutout to Sam, who performed her last solo at Nationals, and Ava, who was crowned Miss Star of Hope and was awarded the Larry and Helen Rose — Lamar University scholarship. Great job girls!
