In the Open A, Natalie Crandall w/ Decho Kraev was the victor.

Natalie won all dances with the majority of 1st places.  2nd in all was Isabella Libertore w/ Charles Cunningham who picked up some 1st places in all dances and for the rest had mostly 2nd’s and 3rd’s.  Only judge Eugene Katsevman did not favor her, awarding 4 6th places and a 4th.
