from the late nineties to 2011, my high school marching band was nationally recognized for making finals at every boa contest we went to and we had a decently large band program with over 100 winds every year. In 2012 our old directors quit and we barely squeezed into Conroe finals and did not make san Antonio finals. This year we are going back to boa Conroe, but our directors primary focus is to make state uil. We also only have 70 winds. Last year we had 74 but made the top 7 at all our contests and almost won at friendswood. IS making Conroe finals possible with only 70 winds?
