Show BHS drill team national champions By TOM HARALDSEN The Bountiful High Mandonelles captured three championship champion-ship titles during the USA National Drill Team finals held this weekend in Anaheim, Calif. The Mandonelles, who captured their third consecutive state title last month, literally dazzled the crowd by beating out 49 other schools to win titles in all three categories in which they were entered. They took first place honors in dance, military, and props. The latter division saw the Mandonelles receive a standing ovation for their clever and innovative unicycle routine. This was the first time that adviser-coach Jan Whittaker and her team have traveled to the California competition, and thus marks the first national titles for the group. Following a short visit to various attractions in southern California, the team was expected back last night. Congratulations Congratula-tions to the Mandonelles for winning three national titles! |
