• Since 2003 Wildfire compulsory teams have finished in the top three teams 12 times and to show our program is getting better with time, 8 of those 12 top finishes have been since 2006.
• Wildfire Level four teams have only lost one competition in four years and finished 2nd in that one.
• 2009 State team results: Level 4 -1st, Level 5- 2nd, Level 6- 2nd
