Lady Huskies Choir Wins State Championship

On Friday, February, 28, 2020 the Women’s A Cappella – Lady Huskies Choir of Hough High School competed in the 5th Annual Metrographics Printing North Carolina High School A Cappella Competition presented by Liquid Fifth at Overhills High School, Mars Hill, NC and scored first overall in the statewide choral competition.

The Hough Women’s A Cappella- Lady Huskies group is in its second year of existence with esteemed choral director Heidi Hickox-Gordon at the helm. The group was formed from the award-winning Hough Women’s Chamber group and this was their first state-wide competition. The 17-member group, comprised of 10th-12th graders, competed against a cappella groups from across the state of North Carolina and were thrilled with a win in their first outing. “This group has made great strides in the short time they have been together and I am so incredibly proud of these ladies,” said choral director Heidi Hickox-Gordon. “They were up against other, very talented competitors and it is an outstanding accomplishment to earn the Championship in their first competition.”
