Albert, Marlon, and Emily
This was a new tournament, and all competitors were limited to one event, and only a sampling of the normal fair was offered, but it was a nice little competition. Marlon Poroj led the team with a 1st Place finish Dramatic/Humorous Interpretation. In Impromptu, the field had only 14 competitors, but that doesn’t mean the competition was easy. The top two slots were taken by a couple of four-year veterans, after that Elco’s mostly rookie team grabbed the next four slots (Emily Mercer #3; Albert Tang #4; Sophia Funkhouser #5; and Hilda Velásquez-Galvez #6) .
