How many nationally ranked bands are there in Area B? TWO! Area D has FIVE currently ranked bands (in the top 30) with THREE in the top 10!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let me tell you about the year 2014 when a great high school that won't be named made first in prelims and then 8th in finals, getting knocked out of state. Area D has so many great bands that could make finals at state, CTJ, Ronald Reagan, Churchill, Hendrickson, Round Rock, Bowie, Cedar Ridge, Stony Point. It is a blood bath in Area D, state is a blood bath, UIL is a Blood Bath.
