Championship-caliber singer<br />

LTHS student sings<br />

national anthem at<br />

state championship<br />

Submitted by Lockport<br />

Township High School<br />

Madelyn Alvarado, a<br />

choral student at Lockport<br />

Township High School, was<br />

selected to sing the National<br />

Anthem Feb. 24 at the Illinois<br />

High School Association’s<br />

state championship for<br />

girls basketball game.<br />

Being chosen to sing at a<br />

state championship game is<br />

the highest possible honor<br />

that the state music organization<br />

can give a choral student.<br />

There were more than<br />

700 students who auditioned<br />

for the District 1 choir and<br />

only 200 were selected to<br />

continue.<br />

Of those 200 choral students,<br />

the Top 16 were invited<br />

to audition to sing the<br />

national anthem. Of those<br />

16 students, only two were<br />

selected to audition for the<br />

state fest, along with 16 other<br />

students from other districts.<br />

Of those 18 students,<br />

only six were chosen to sing<br />

the national anthem at the<br />

actual games.<br />

That means that only six<br />

students were chosen to perform<br />

from a pool of 5,000<br />

vocalists in the state.<br />
