  1. They certainly have improved this year. Not sure if it's enough to make finals but I'd think they would be close.
  2. None of this is correct. All prelims and finals at Area are random draws, not result based.
  3. Most Non-UIL compeitions follow the top 1/2, bottom 1/2 format. Just not UIL yet
  4. As a band director, I can tell you that Area Finals is purely a random draw, not top 1/2, bottom 1/2. There is a discussion proposal presented to the UIL Marching Band Rules Advisory Committee for this to be considered in the future. Read about it here: https://www.uiltexas.org/files/music/UIL_MB_RAC_Spring_2023_Minutes.pdf
  5. One of the judges is a percussionist.
  6. No shade, but what are your credentials for having a "sense of what a state-caliber band" is? I say we just let the bands do the talking and see what results we have come Saturday night at 11:00 PM
  7. Klein Cain will be a nice competitor for Jordan and give them a run for their $
  8. McNeil has had some clearly outstanding RESULTS this year. I didn't say they were clearly outstanding and deserved anything better than 9th at Area Finals. McNeil was 6th at TMC, ahead of Dripping Springs, Westlake, Leander, M&G Johnson. McNeil was 2nd at CapCity right behind Dripping Springs. I call those clearly outstanding RESULTS for a season.
  9. Where does the 14 points come from? If you're talking about ordinals, McNeil had 41 ordinals and Churchill had 50. Judge side-by-side scoring was: McNeil/WCHS Judge 1 - 615/608 Judge 2 - 490/422 Judge 3 - 900/350 Judge 4 - 695/670 Judge 5 - 594/580 Just curious where the 14 points came from. I don't see it.
  10. Both groups have had steady improvement. However, so have all of the additional finalists. Churchill and McNeil have been 8/9, 9/10, and 9/10 in the last 6A Area D Finals. Shooting up to the top this year is inaccurate. McNeil has had some clearly outstanding results this year.
  11. Churchill beat McNeil because of one visual judge that had them 7th. They were ahead of WCHS in music by 9 points.
  12. Great list! I wouldn’t discount LASA this year. What I saw and heard at Region 18 last week was quite good. Should be a finalist this year IMHO.
