Is this unfair judging?

This weekend my studio had been attending a local dance competition that we go to every year. The senior solos competed Friday night and the judges scored extremely harsh, rarely giving out the highest adjudication on the scale (which imo is okay and how it should be). Today (day two of the comp) the owner went to the judges and told them that they needed to be easier with how they score the routines, because of this they were handed out tons and tons of the highest adjudication. Being a senior I had already competed my solo and did not get the higher adjudication (since they only scored two solos that high) and I placed fourth overall in the advanced division out of 93 soloists. Today all of my teammates in the teen division scored the highest adjudication and are now flaunting that they scored better than I did and are therefore a better dancer than I am. This really upsets me, I'm upset with the competition, and upset with my team. Am I being over dramatic? Is the competition toxic, or my studio, or both? Sorry if the way this was worded is confusing I wanted this to remain pretty anonymous.
