So...at the competition in Bacon County last weekend (a very well-run comp, by the way), there were some very questionable scores. How can a team drop two stunts and still get full DOD points, and be only 2 points behind another team who dropped NO stunts, had NO bobbles, and had NO missing body positions or stunts pulled?? I can understand being outscored on tumbling if one team has fulls and the whole team (except the two hiding in the back) does standing tucks. And again, getting outscored on dance, just because of subjective judging? Many questions were raised over these scores, not just by the runner-up team, but by just about every other team's coaches as well. It appears that one particular team is being judged by reputation and name, and by what judges assume they can do, rather than by actual performance. The rest of us have to fight for every single point. Politics rule, apparently.
