Centerville Oral Interp Students Compete at State, Bring Home Strong Results!
The Centerville Oral Interp team wrapped up an outstanding season with an impressive showing at the state competition, demonstrating skill, dedication, and tenacity despite being a small team.
Competing in Readers Theatre, students Dulce Gutierrez, RyLee Sullivan, Brady Muller, and Jace Muller delivered a standout performance, finishing just one point shy of earning a state medal. Their work was praised for its cohesiveness, expression, and stage presence—an exceptional accomplishment at the state level.
In addition to his team performance, RyLee Sullivan excelled individually, earning a Superior rating in the Poetry category, a significant achievement that highlights his talent and preparation.
“They proved that talent and tenacity can take you far, but what impressed me most wasn’t just their performances—it was their resilience, positivity, and dedication to each other. Watching them compete and excel at every level this season has been incredibly rewarding. This team truly exemplifies what Oral Interp is all about.” — Coach Jacquelynn Skotvold
This season was one to celebrate for Centerville Oral Interp. Although the team had only four students competing, they impressively filled all seven categories.
Dulce Gutierrez: Readers Theatre and Non-Original Oratory
RyLee Sullivan: Poetry, Dramatic, and Readers Theatre
Brady Muller: Duet, Humorous, and Readers Theatre
Jace Muller: Duet, Storytelling, and Readers Theatre
The team attended three competitions and proudly returned with awards from each one, proving that hard work and determination can make a big impact—even with a small team.
