bancl Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 Whats everyone thinking around the area with Fort Bend ISD and Pearland ISD and Brazoswood and Dawson etc? With the new alignments I dont know what area we (clements) are in anymore Looks like 4 will advance per UIL estimates. Pearland, Brazoswood, Clements, Dawson, Dickinson have all advanced recently. They all lucked out with Friendswood dropping to 5A. They would have been a lock to advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtb617 Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Whats everyone thinking around the area with Fort Bend ISD and Pearland ISD and Brazoswood and Dawson etc? With the new alignments I dont know what area we (clements) are in anymore Here’s the UIL’s 2018 released map for each Area, grouped by region. https://align.tmea.org/align_1820/index.php It seems like Katy ISD and Cy-Fair ISD now has their own area this year (Area I), but Fort Bend ISD is still a part of Area E. That means you don’t have to deal with Cy-Fair, Cy Falls, Langham Creek, JET, Seven Lakes, or Tompkins this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanofBands Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Hey Everyone, I'm new to the page and really like all the discussion I see on here. I do have some thoughts on the upcoming years Area B competition and ultimate state qualifiers from there. While I'm no expert in band, just a band dad that was hooked when my son decided band was his thing, Ill say this. Area B will very interesting and I wouldn't be surprised if the " locks " get upset. With the new bands moving up to 6A this year its gonna be a show worth seeing. There are just so many things that come into this, judges preference, weather, performance time and finally the pressure of qualifying for state. There are going to be so many good bands in this area that its hard to say who will make it out until we see the shows this fall. As I learned the hard way at state last year, things change from prelims to finals. Anyway, I can't wait until the fall and we get to see how all this shakes out. josephbandfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do we think about finalists for that area?Pearland, B-wood, Dawson, Dickinson, Clements, Austin, Clear Brook, who else? And then 4 of those make it to state?

8to5brass Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 What do you all think about Area F with Conroe ISD (College Park, Woodlands), Tomball Memorial, and all the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostChoirGuy Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 I've never paid as much attention to Houston area bands, but I'm curious if the new Conroe ISD school is pulling from The Woodlands or TWCP at all? They are starting at 6A in the first year, right? Will they have a competing band program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I have heard is that they are pulling from both schools slightly but more from the Woodlands, but I didn’t think they were starting as a 6A. They may be I just didn’t know that.

jmj Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 According to info on the Conroe ISD website, it looks like the new school (Grand Oaks) is pulling from Oak Ridge HS entirely. It's opening as a 5A with grades 9 and 10 and then is expected be 6A by 2020 when all 4 grades are present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXClarinet20 Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 I think Area B is going to be tough No order... and I think I am missing a few! Keller Keller Central Halcolm Richland Plano East Timber Creek LD Bell Duncanville Waxahachie Prosper Coppell Martin My top 6 prediction on Area B based on knowing these bands in person: -Keller -Duncanville -Coppell -LD Bell -Waxahachie (it will be interesting because they were a 5A finalist in 2017) -Haltom or Timber Creek (possible but not a safe bet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelonfish Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 How are you not safe betting Haltom exactly? That’s what I’m saying . The way they performed last year was excellent and I’ve heard not a lot of seniors left and they gained a lot of people as well . I feel as maybe they are gonna be underdogs and then really turn out at the end of the season and show these people and other groups who haltom is .

TXClarinet20 Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 How are you not safe betting Haltom exactly? Area B is very tricky because all the band programs in that Area are very great. I believe Haltom will advance to state this year but it could be anyone's game this year because of Area B. We won't know what happens until late October :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSHSMom Posted June 26, 2018 Report Share Posted June 26, 2018 What's crazy about Area B if you look at that list, a few quality bands won't even make the finals! Assuming there are only 10 bands in the finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming there are only 10 bands in the finals. Area B and to an extent D are why the UIL system needs to be overhauled. The massive amount of great bands across the state is continuing to grow and is beginning to outgrow the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown2018 Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 Let’s talk about The LISD bands because I’m always on edge of which one of them is going to be the astounding one you know? Like it was Marcus for a while then FloMo for a couple years and the this year Hebron was the best I’ve ever seen them so I’m just wondering who y’all think is gonna be the “The King” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
