<< ViperGTS, your post is a little misleading. Your sister came third, but one might have the impression that your sister came first if they have no knowledge of your sister's name, age or haven't seen her pic before.
Oddly enough, AmusedOne and I seem to see things the same here. I thought for a moment that the first place winner was your sis. She looks so much like you. However, I was startled 'cuz as far as I recollected, your sis didn't look anyway like the first place winner (McCann) when last I saw her and she would be too old to be your sis. But then I scrolled down a bit and saw "Stephanie". She looked exactly like your sis I saw in the pics you linked long time ago. I recognised the name too.
Anyway, congrats to your sis for taking the third place. >>
That's funny, I read his post as his sister taking first in STATE, and third in last year's NATIONALS, and the link was to last year's nationals. I don't think anything was misrepresented.
