In the Youth division, Addison O’Leary and JR Kingsman set the tone in Round 1 with a 14.701. Lily Lewis and PS Guys On A High took Round 2 by nearly two-tenths with a 14.597.

Division championships went to Kinlee Reagan (2D), Raelinn Exheverri (3D), Raelyn Hamilton (4D), and Karsyn Murray(5D).

The Teen division brought just as much heat. Pressley Green kicked off with a first-round win on Lovininthefastlane, then sealed her second consecutive Teen World Championship aboard Sissys Slick Design.

Lacy Kimbell won Round 2 on JJ Blazzin Carizzo, while Teen division titles went to Jaley Smith(2D), Sarah Boothe (3D), Jaylen Wilkerson (4D), and Addi Page (5D).
