Waco’s Holly Tucker wins her battle round on ‘The Voice’

In her first performance since choosing Blake Shelton to be her coach on the NBC's ‘The Voice‘, Baylor student Holly Tucker took the stage in the ‘Battle Round’. And at the end of the battle, Tucker moved on to sing another day for Team Blake!

In the Battle Round, 'The Voice' coaches pit members of their teams against one another and they sing a duet, the coach then picks the winner of the battle. Each coach has two steals again this season, so they can pick up the castoffs from other coaches.

Holly was pitted against fellow Team Blake contestant Michelle Raitzin, and the pair sang Carrie Underwood’s hit song ‘Blown Away’.  The performance by both Holly and Michelle was outstanding and Shelton had a difficult time choosing who won the round. But in the end, it was Holly who was picked to advance.

Congratulations to our local girl on her win! You can continue to show your support for Tucker by purchasing her performance of ‘Blown Away’ on iTunes. And if you haven’t yet, be sure to “like” her on Facebook, too.
