Thanks, David. Congratulations to you too!

FYI, I spoke with some of the judges, and they told me that your student's
WWQ was actually better than the Senior division wind groups that won
prizes in the Senior Division (which was divided into String and Wind
categories)! That's why they decided to create a special prize for them
even though they didn't put them in the Junior Division finals with the
three string groups.
