Norwell's "Knight Moves" End Season Undefeated!

Norwell’s Knight Moves completed an unbeaten Small Mixed Division Show Choir season with another win Saturday, this time at the 14th annual Ohio Valley Showcase at Southwestern High School in Hanover.

The Knight Moves headed off mixed choirs from Columbia City, Austin and Ross, to take their season record to a perfect 32-0. The Knight Moves also won the caption awards for Best Choreography and Best Vocals.

Competing in the Women’s Division, the Knight Stars were edged into first runner-up by Center Grove, by an eight point margin. Norwell won the caption award for Best Vocals, but Center Grove’s larger choir took Best Choreography.
Also competing in the Women’s Division were Clover Hill (W.V.) and Columbia City. The Knight Stars therefore finish their season at 17-3.

Norwell’s Lauren Fiechter, who preforms in both choirs, also won the Solo Division.

Norwell’s individual Best Performer awards went to Addy Johnson (Knight Moves) and Leslie Sagstetter (Knight Stars).

Although the competition season is over, Norwell’s show choirs still have two more events to prepare for. On April 28, Northern Wells Community Schools will present its annual Musical extravaganza, featuring all choirs and bands from its music departments, from elementary through high school. On May 5, the season will officially conclude with the Choral Spring Show, which will also be the farewell performance for this year’s seniors.
