As everyone knows, both ladies are coaches of the prospective schools and both Squads put on a showcase yesterday in Baton Rouge..
YOU be the judge, both squads brought their A game.

Honestly both were good. Both had a Stingette-Doll feel to them.
Uniforms - Jeanne (not a fan of the high waist style on either, because they don't fit all the ladies well, especially in the crotch or stomach area if they have a slight gut).
Energy - McKinnley (Danny). They were a little too bouncy at times for my personal taste.
Stands - McKinnley although I'll say Jeanne's ladies slayed tf out of that first song. But I really loved them both in the stands. I did like the formation at 13 minutes for Jeanne's squad.
At times Mckinnley looked a bit busy due to the number of ladies on the squad.
Overall solid squads for both. I didn't get bored watching either.
Both squads were really nice!! I love how CPAA threw that McKinnley piece back at them haha.
New Captain on McKinnley has always been a fav of mines and I'm glad to see her up front. Danni really be pumping out these girls the squad looks awesome and together to just have had tryouts not to long ago and most of them are rookies. The only critique I have for both squads is to not over do the moves to a point where it looks like It's going to throw you off balance. Outside of that I say they each held their own. Great job ladies and coaches!
The down side of the tights are that they look good on dancers who doesn't carry weight in the mid section or dancers who hip to waist ratio is perfect (KP) or else it takes away giving a no waist line illusion.
I enjoyed both squads! MCK came thru by being a lil more clean just a lil bit! CPAA caught me with the uni and the how dramatic they are with their counts!
Makes me wonder how the Dolls would look with 2014 BC top paired with 2010 BC BOTB uni leggings or the even the blue leggings! That would be yet a cute but dressed down choice for a first or informal game!

Semaya's energy was a little TOO much at this performance.... a lot of the counts were overdone and the squad tried their best to match her, which miraculously didn't turn into a disaster. Maybe I'm just used to the effortless confidence of Jada, but I'm sure she'll settle into the captain position and find her groove. I'm definitely rooting for her.
As far as CPAA, those white tights were a bit unforgiving on the thicker young lady, but I loved the top. Somewhat edgy for a high school squad, but I'm from ATL and we invented edgy when it comes to high school dancelines, LOL. They could have been a little cleaner with their counts, and the captain seemed to be enjoying herself more than she seemed to be focused on precision in execution.
The chocolate young lady in the camera's focus in the beginning of this clip....YES MA'AM. Controlled. Effortless. Attitude. Form. Just on point! She looks so seasoned and I think she's new to the team. They look amazing to be just put together. However, the rest of the team was too bouncy and overdone. I just knew someone was going to throw themselves off balance. After some conditioning and the excitement wears off, I think they'll have another awesome season. And it's time for us to stop giving college teams a pass for being a newly picked squad. These high schoolers pulling it off!
I hated the high waist tights on both teams. The sagging looked really...nasty. CPAA's top was cute!
