Shelby Putnam, the team's coach since 2011, previously said that the audition call came after one of their performances went viral. The squad comprises a total of 13 members, and despite of size, the team motto has contributed to its success. "Our team motto is beat John Glenn. It means to just be better than the last time and always go and be your personal best. Beat the last performance you did," Putnam claim.

High School Kick Dance/Pom Team - A pom dance crew from Bangor Township, Michigan that specializes in high kicks impresses the judges, particularly Howie, who returns after a brief hiatus. The group has won the High Kick 2021 tournament. Simon's eyes widen as the team enters the stage, each member resembling Howie. As the audience applauds, Howie expresses his desire to give them the Golden Buzzer already. When asked who their favorite judge is, they immediately pick Mr. Mandel. They disguised themselves as Howie in the hopes of changing his opinion of dance teams.

The 14-19 yeard olds perform to Pitbull Ft. Anthony Watts & DJWS - I Feel Good.' As soon as the performance is over, Howie gets to his feet. He compares the act to his spending hours alone in a funhouse dancing. He describes the performance as enjoyable, and every one of them possesses humorous skills. Simon was curious if he will have look-alikes in the future, and the group assured him that they have plans for that. Sofia says she enjoys the music and their energy and had a great time seeing them. Howie takes the stage after four "yeses" to dance with his doppelgangers.

Even though fans loved seeing so many HowiesS on stage they weren't particularly fond of the performance. Many aren't sure if they are good enough for talent shows. A tweet read: "They’re a fine high school type choir that might win a high school talent show but #AGT worthy;"

However, some fans were excited to just see the judges enjoy the show: "The John Glenn High School Dance Team...stunned the Judges with their Howie Mandel look-alike appearance on...AGT...Tues. 19th. Pretty good performance! Looved it...Howie's involvement...and all."

Another fan compared the performance to a high school talent show: "Liked the choreography, dunno if it's a million dollar act. Reminds me of a high school talent show audition. #AGT."
