Competition Season

After great success in our first invitational at UVU, the Waspettes went on to compete in two more invitationals. At The Falcon Classic the girls delivered amazing performances bringing home a 3rd place trophy in Hip Hop and placing 5th overall. Emily Gabler won 3rd place in the 4A drill down and Rachael Hales took 5th in her solo routine.

At the Bountiful Invitational the Waspettes killed it placing 2nd in Hip Hop, 3rd in Military, and 4th in Character. Emily Gabler represented Wasatch well taking 1st in the 4A drill down. 

Region took place on January 28th at Salem Hills High School. The day before, the team relaxed and visualized with a yoga class. The awesome Waspette moms then made Hawaiian hay stacks for lunch and performed their very own version of Uh-say. Even with the time crunch of a fast paced competition, the girls blew everyone away with their performances taking 4th at region and 3rd in Hip Hop. This meant the Waspettes could go to state! Even more impressive was that our outstanding seniors all received Academic All Region, and Marion received the hero award. 

This year, the Utah High School Athletics Association changed the format of the state competition for drill team. In our region, the top 5 schools move on to state semi-finals. There, based on our region rankings, we were placed into different pods. The Waspettes were put into Pod 3 with other 4A schools; Murray, Box Elder, and Corner Canyon. Our first routine wan't until 3:00 PM, but the Waspettes went down early anyways and watched some of the other schools compete. After eating lunch, the girls became focused and got ready to perform. The Waspettes crushed military, best its ever been! They then performed their sassy Ex's and Oh's dance routine, and finished with their intense siren character dance. The top two placing teams in each pod moves on to state finals. Unfortunately the Waspettes didn't move on to finals this year, but they most definitely excelled way beyond exceptions over the course of this season. Our captain, Meagan, also received Academic All State.
