2022 BOA San Antonio (Nov. 4 & 5)
BandFan59 replied to LeanderMomma's topic in Upcoming Contests, Events, and Festivals
Don't think it will happen any time soon but I would love to see Broken Arrow finally make the trip to San Antonio. -
Wando was first out with a 90.55. The last band to get in finals was Blue Springs with a 90.60. As for the finals scores I'll just say that I heavily disagree with the judges on a lot of the rankings and scores. Flower Mound deserved better IMO and Broken Arrow, although fantastic, was not that far ahead of everyone else. Guess the judges saw something that I didn't.

Yeah I think the last thread broke for real lol. Anyway I thought Broken Arrow was near flawless and likely the champion here, but Avon sure brought the house down! Love their rendition of Fire of Eternal Glory. Marcus was just beautiful. I don't know how else to put it, but those mellophone soloists were outstanding and the best I've heard all year. Absolutely deserved that music caption in semifinals and wouldn't be surprised to see them win it again.

Blue Springs' show is a lot of fun! Enjoyed the soloists, though wished there was a bit more full ensemble moments as opposed to the soloists and small ensembles on the platform. After Claudia Taylor Johnson you can tell there's a definite step down musically, but the visual side was still excellent. Great performance!

Sad to see CTJ in the bottom six of finals. I think this is the strongest show they've taken to nationals and was really pulling for them to grab a medal here. It looks like Team Texas may be coming home without a medal this year, but Flower Mound's performance time puts them in a great spot to potentially sneak into the top 3.
