After the Novice Free:
1) Encore of Boston (USA), 90.98 WR
2) Les Zimbawas (FRA), 90.38
3) Harmony Theatre Company (USA), 87.25

Will be interesting how this progresses going into US Nationals seeing what happened last year with the results of the US teams flipping a lot.

Last year, Les Zimbawas were in 5th and Harmony was in 3nd. The team in 2nd last year (Les Minis Lions) ended in last this year.

After the Junior Short:
1) Act 1 of Boston (USA), 57.15
2) Les Epines Blances (FRA) 55.40
3) Edelw'Ice (SUI), 54.45

Last year the Junior CE results completely flipped around with 2nd (Act 1) moving to 1st, 5th (Epinal) moving to 3rd, and 1st (LA) moving to 2nd. So this will be interesting as well. For sure the most surprising result to me is that LA is not on the podium after winning the CE last year and I'm excited to see how that might turn around as it did last year for Epinal.

After the Senior Short:
1) Les Metropolitains (FRA), 70.25
2) Les Vertacomicoriens (FRA), 68.45
3) Forte of Boston (USA), 67.75

Same teams on the podium as last year, pretty standard.
