Winside, Newman Grove, Hampton, Clarkson, Lyons-Decatur, and Leigh were the teams competing. Lyons-Decatur finished second, and Winside finished third.
Several Leigh students earned Outstanding Actor and Actress Recognition, including Kaegan Held, Cameron Miller, Cort Pokorney, Holly Kuhr, Logan Becher, Audie Tejkl, Reagan Settje, and Carson Ahrens.
Reagan Settje, a Junior at Leigh High School said, “It feels great to make it back to state again this year. We worked really hard to get where we are and can’t wait until state.”
Megan Hillen, Assistant One Act coach for Leigh High School said,” We are very proud of all the time and hard work that the members of the One-Act have put in this season. Some of them have had to step outside of their comfort zone and they have done a fantastic job. We look forward to performing in Norfolk at State!”
They will be moving on to state to perform in Norfolk at the Johnny Carson theater, on December 5.
