The Corsairs, led by Head Coach Amelia Faulstick, entered Day Two of competition in 11th position after posting a team score of 87.98 in Friday's Preliminary Round, and climbed two spots on Saturday with a team score of 86.14 to finish 9th, overall. Carmel's appearance in the IHSA State Finals was the fifth-straight for the Corsairs, who were moved to Class 2A after placing 3rd in Class 1A in 2024. For reference, fellow 2A Finalists feature average enrollments surpassing 1,400 students, compared to just 1,100 for Carmel, further elevating this amazing accomplishment by our dancers!
