There was no such thing, and there won't be any this year either! - Fedor Antonov shared his emotions after triumphing in the general programme. - Little by little we began to have doubts about the prize. But they announced us! An explosion, a storm, and happiness! For a long time I could not believe that it had really happened. I think I'll be impressed for a few more days!"

The number of entries and runners-up showed that Volga Region University is full of talented people, ready to show their perseverance and will to win. Hours of rehearsals, weeks of waiting, months of preparation - it all paid off in full.
