Ankeny Centennial high school’s choir, Spectrum, took home the title of grand champion. Waukee high school’s choir, Millennium, took home second place and Ankeny high school’s choir, Visual Adrenaline, took home third place.
Johnston choirs performed on both Friday night and during the day Saturday as exhibition choirs, meaning they did not compete.
