Shepard High School choral director Roland Hatcher and his amazing show choir, NOVA, delivered yet another sterling performance on Saturday and came home with another haul of trophies.

NOVA traveled on Danville on Saturday.

"Another crazy long day, but another great weekend for NOVA!" Hatcher said. "The kids and I all agreed, after winning the class that we have competed in for a long while at back to back competitions, our next step was to move up a class to compete in the top tier of the activity at the rest of our competitions this season. The kids had two great runs of their show, including their best run of the season during finals and earned the following awards," he added

"Very very proud of these kids. They keep raising the bar, went toe to toe with some of the best show choirs in the state yet again and did not flinch. Two more competitions to go - both wildly competitive, but we will hope to end this season on a high note!" he added.
