Just gonna organize into bubbles for now: 1st: Flower Mound 2-4: Leander Ronald Reagan Vandegrift 5-7: Claudia Taylor Johnson Hebron Marcus 8-11: Cedar Park L.D. Bell Round Rock The Woodlands 12-16: Hendrickson Keller Keller Central Vista Ridge Winston Churchill Music: Lewisville ISD Visual: Flower Mound, Ronald Reagan GE: Flower Mound Wow, some very good bands will not be making finals. Wouldn't be surprised if 10th place broke 90, geez.

Without trying to be biased towards my alma mater, I think Round Rock will advance to state. They have a very good ensemble sound compared to recent years and visual looks a lot cleaner than it did in 2014. They also just added more show and I was impressed how good it sounded already.

Agreed, as good as Reagan and Vandegrift are this year Flower Mound has San Antonio in its Talons. Well see about UIL after area. Can Flower Mound return to Nationals already? Need to show Tarpon Springs, Broken Arrow, and Avon what Texas is made of!

Correlation does not imply causation. Besides most of your statements don't even make much sense. And James Bowie did not miss State in 2014. In fact they were first in Area D and 2nd in state prelims (4th in finals). Regardless I do agree that anything can happen.

Yes, in 2013. Woodlands, Round Rock, Marcus, LD Bell, and Cedar Ridge.

I think Leander will be an Underdog Champion for Grand Nats. Also I think Bowie and Woodlands could surprise people at these next two regionals.

My bad, Vista Ridge had the highest music score in prelims

I was right about prelims, Leander even swept captions too. Let the craziness begin lol

How awesome would it be to see Vandegrift win 6a and 4a state in the span of 3 years? Impressive.

I really wanna see Vandergrift now...

Looking at the caption spread for 4A my guess is Leander was first for prelims. Probably not even a point difference between the top 5, this regional is ridiculous!

Wouldn't be surprised, they did it last year after all. I was unaware Vandergrift and Vista Ridge were 4a now.

Think you forgot someone, Austin Bowie should definitely be top 5.

Bowie's situation is considerably worse though, taking into account the distance they have to travel.

True but he was back with them last year too and no medal. They certainly have a chance but those top 3 are insane.

Round Rock High School: Tryptic

Looking at some videos I was very impressed with Vandegrift musical performance. Haven't seen it in action along with other groups performances so well see. It'll be interesting to see how Vandegrift and Round Rock match up to the three going to Nationals as they don't have to play the long game. These will probably change a bit the day going into the competition. 1-3: Cedar Park Claudia Taylor Johnson Round Rock 4-5: Leander Vandegrift 6-8: Cedar Ridge Hendrickson Vista Ridge 9-12: Dripping Springs Westwood Westlake Winston Churchill Music: Cedar Park Round Rock Vandegrift Visual: Claudia Taylor Johnson Round Rock GE: Claudia Taylor Johnson Leander Round Rock

And Leander.

Coming from the band that heard Hebrons music warm up, their playing was absolutely, horrifyingly good. I was honestly expecting a perfect music score. I don't think Flower Mound would have been able to keep with their music scores, but maybe could have done better visually.

No, 1300 is the Nats trip. We pay an entirely separate band fee.

I knew Vandegrift would bring it back! Not surprising considering their rise from area in 2013.

As far as I know only us and Broken Arrow have one thats main focus is football games.

For sure? No. District will decide at 7 in the morning if itll be clear. 4:15 will only happen with their say so. As of football game concerns we'll just have our JV attend as to not have an absence.

As long as the district gives us the clear it appears Round Rock will perform at 4:15.

Agreed, this isn't a scenario anyone wanted in the first place. There are just little things that are frustrating (for everyone involved). I could care less about waking up at 2 in the morning, it's when crazy storms are involved that driving at that time becomes dangerous.
