Thursday, March 27, 2014 was a fun evening in the Mount Si High School auditorium as some very talented students showcased themselves in the 2014 ‘Wildcats Got Talent’ Competition. 19 acts competed and five made the final cuts.
Top 5 Wildcat Got Talent Finishers:
- Lydia Petroske and Maile Young, who sang a parody of ‘American Pie’ called ‘Chinese Salamanders.’
- Kaitlyn Rogers, who performed an artistic unicycle routine to ‘All that Jazz’ from Chicago.
- 3rd Place: Connor Drake, who played his own piano composition.
- 2nd Place: Kennedy Stinson, who played piano and performed her own song, ‘The Fighter,’ dedicated to her sister.
- 1st Place: Alex Kilian, Morgan Myers, Natalie Werner and Judy Zhu, who performed the Beatle hit, ‘Black Bird,’ a cappella.
