Let's bring some 2014 vibes in here. I'm pulling for either BA or TS Gimme '16 and a medal headed to Ohio. Actually, those 3 for all the medals would be just fine, thanks. Mix things up a bit.

Finals predictions: Avon, Music, Visual Tarpon springs, GE Broken Arrow ———————— Carmel ———————— William Mason ———————— Castle Cedar park ———————— Bridgeland Prosper ———————— American Fork Dobyns-Bennett Leander I really like this but I hope Broken Arrow takes a caption or something. I kinda doubt that it’ll happen but I would love to see this. This is a small stretch idk about tarpon that high but with how close the top 4 are I could see it happening
