Among the students competing in the event were Emily Adkins, Victoria Adkins, Aidan Bennett, Emmett Brown, Steven Brown, Sebastian Ellison Jerry Fernald, Clyde Johnson Brodey Pennington, Chris Pennington and Brayden Welborn.

At the time two additional USA team members were named to join 7-year-old Aidan Bennett in August. Aiden was nominated in March of 2019 to represent the United States of America in his division. He competed last year in Florida and brought home the 2018 National Point Circuit ASJL Competitor of the Year title.
