Callbacks Win Quarterfinals
Yesterday, the Callbacks placed first at the National Championship of College A Cappella at the University of New Hampshire at Durham.
"Everyone worked together and finally after all that hard work we just managed to channel and use that energy to show everyone what we can do," said Megan L. Gaffney '02, the business manager for the Callbacks.
After winning the quarterfinals against New England schools, the Callbacks will compete in the regional competition this Friday. The winning group will then proceed to the national championship in New York.
