Knoxville senior Mason Hatch has been accepted into the Iowa All-State Chorus for the second time. He qualified for state after auditioning in Indianola. State competition will be in Ames Saturday, November 19th.

Hatch was asked if he gets nervous, “I was more excited this year. I’m really looking forward to Saturday, because I really took a lot of time this year to prepare for it. I did as much as I could, went to a lot of practice and clinics and went to a lot of things like that, just because I really wanted to get back in because it’s such an awesome honor.”

Mason will be going to State with his chorus instructor in Knoxville, Ian Heetland.
