University of North Texas, Denton. "I think it's a fun dimension that in the competition, there are groups of various levels and ages," Jones says. "It's always interesting to me year to year that someone might expect a high school group to not do as well as a collegiate group. However, that's not the case most of the time. These are really, really amazing groups, regardless of their ages."
