Dont have a show poster yet but... Lumberton HS, TX: Beethoven's Secrets

Phantom Regiment: Exo Genesis

My Top 5 currently: McKinney Celina Canton North Lamar Mineola Rowlett or Princeton could also swap out with Mineola.

Look, I dont even agree with them a day later. This event is going to be IMPOSSIBLE to predict because there will be bands that may place in the 20's that is finals worthy.

Lets be honest, any of these placements could and can be swapped around.

First attempt to predicting this insanely stacked competition. 1. Keller 2. Waxahachie 3. Timber Creek 4. Wakeland 5. Prosper 6. L.D. Bell 7. Southlake Carroll 8. Rock Hill 9. Mustang 10. Keller Central 11. McKinney Boyd 12. Clear Brook ----- 13. Walnut Grove 14. Hendrickson 15. Rockwall 16. Sachse 17. Highland Park 18. Duncanville 19. Keller Fossil Ridge 20. Aledo 21. McKinney North 22. Forney 23. Lake Highland 24. Berkner 25. McKinney 26. Grapevine 27. Tom Glenn 28. Creekview

You could make a case that this contest is possibly one of the most stacked events in the country. Like at least 80% - 90% of these bands are finals worthy.

He sadly did not make top 20. However his showstopper's performance is "goosebump heaven".

Iowa Colony HS: Shimmer and Shake Musical Selections: Angels in the Architecture by Ticheli Chandelier by Sia Ghosts by Muse Cloudburst by Whitacre

Oh, I already knew about that. I was thinking they were going to go to Oklahoma or maybe St. Louis.

Personal Rankings for Scholastic Open (Only watched about 9 guards) 1. Mt. Carmel 2. Northmont 3. Palm Desert Charter Middle School 4. Milford 5. American Fork 6. Somerset Academy 7. Naperville Central 8. Franklin Central 9. William R. Boone

I'm gonna get a lot of hate for saying this, but I thought Mt. Carmel was much more enjoyable. Don't get me wrong, Somerset Academy did awesome, but I was not fully into the show as I was with Mt. Carmel.

I am up to watch some Scholastic Open Finalist Guards!

OK Corral? Is this a teaser for Klein Oak to be heading north for an out of state competition?

Absolutely! They should make SO Finals with that run, even though they were sitting at 12th yesterday after prelims.

And yes they did have an oustanding run..... the best run of the season yet imo !!!!!!!

I've been watching Scholastic Open Semi-Finals for most of the day. They have all been killing it so far! American Fork has been my favorite yet. Hoping PDCMS has another outstanding run after this break...... so jealous LeanderMomma is there lol

Yes!

Holy cow! They did amazing!

Oh my bad, I didnt read the "and on". I know they are amazing, but there are many amazing groups to watch! lol

Just The Woodlands???

I got goosebumps while watching him!

The Woodlands has become one of my favorites this year. I just can't stop watching their show!

I'ma say Shadow Creek.

With PDCMS scoring an 85.4 at Manhattan Beach, it's looking like they may be placed in the top 6 or 7 in the projected rankings for SO. That is just insane. *Edit* Actually, taking a closer look at the other SO groups from the Indianapolis Regional, I think PDCMS will get placed in the top 10, not top 6 or 7.
