What a memorable day at the Minnesota State Class AA Speech Tournament! 🏆

Our state qualifiers - Amanda Kopp, Ava Smith, Cameron Bleess, Genevieve Brace, Lilia Osei-Dankwah, Niko Pearson, Cody Esposito, and Ainsley Doom - took the stage with confidence and passion, delivering standout performances all day long. We couldn’t be prouder of how they represented our program.

It all led to a truly historic finish! 🎉 Senior Lilia Osei-Dankwah brought home our school’s first-ever state speech championship! 🌟

What a day at the Minnesota State Class AA Speech Tournament!!!

We are extremely proud of our state entrants: Amanda Kopp, Ava Smith, Cameron Bleess, Genevieve Brace, Lilia Osei-Dankwah, Niko Pearson, Cody Esposito, and Ainsley Doom. Each of them had extraordinary performances all day. They represented our program with excellence and heart.

And history was made… our school’s first-ever state speech champion: Lilia Osei-Dankwah!!!!!

Her finals performance was nothing short of beautiful- the perfect capstone to a stellar career. After placing third in the state last year, she finished her senior season on top... Truly the stuff of dreams.

Congratulations to all of our talented Bluejackets on an unforgettable season!
