Diagonal Large Group
State Speech
Diagonal High School took an improvisational acting group to the State Speech Contest
in Waukee on February 8th and brought home an overall Division 2 rating, which is considered very good.
Performers were Junior Lydia Hoffman; Sophomores Ashlynn Allee and Kylie Hubbard;
and Freshmen Cadance Shiflett and Jaylynn Doolittle.
Coach Pam Hoffman says, “The group draws 3 situations and then they have 2 minutes to
decide which situation to use and plan their strategy. Then they have up to 5 minutes to perform it. Our team performed Getting Lost in a Magical Forest. These kids are not afraid to go from any sporting event to a live performance in the blink of an eye!”
