WGI PIO Champs!

So I struggled. I cried. I worked my butt off.

But this weekend made all of that worth it.

At the 2007 WGI World Championships in Dayton, OH this past weekend, United Percussion took first place in Percussion Independent Open class with a score of 95.5 (out of 100, of course). We topped Penn State Indoor by 7 tenths. This is the first time United has ever won a world championship.

What else is that we were also "bumped" to World Class, so we will now be competing in WGI PIW competition. Word.

The feeling I got when they announced, "...and in second place, with a score of 94.8.............(forever passes time)....Penn State!" was unbelievable. So much pressure was lifted, and when I saw our staff crying and hugging each other, tears filled my eyes. it was a GREAT weekend.

However, now school is back in my mind and I have a photo project due tonight at 6. Lata.
