For Area C,
I see Duncanville, Coppell, Berkner, and N. Mesquite as the top 4. I've seen Rowlett and Sachse and feel they will not be ahead of N. Mesquite.
As for other finalists, I predict this as the order:
1 Duncanville
2 Coppell
3 Berkner
4 N Mesquite
5 Rowlett
6 Lake Highlands
7 Midlothian
8 Naaman Forest
9 Mesquite
10 Sachse

With that theory in mind, I guess the Cowboys can say they are 4-0 this season instead of 2-2. : )
Hi,Your post has been edited because your vein attempt at trying to gloat at a PRELIMS placement is not amusing. I sincerely hope that you are not from the school that you are bragging about because I'm pretty sure we have some sort of connection with your director and I don't think he/she would be too happy to see such poor sportsmanship. And even if you're not from the school or have already graduated, you should probably quit being a jerk.
By the way, saying that you won Prelims is kind of like saying your football team won the 1st Half.
Regards,
Daniel Valdez

i was there, and quite frankly, i couldn't understand the prelims scores. in my opinion, there is no way that duncanville should have been anything but 1st in both prelims and finals. mckinney did derserve 2nd. poteet deserved the placement that they received as well. there show was lacking in the execution that they are normally known for. they had many marching issues with alignment, etc. maybe they'll get it together prior to area and state. if not, i think they'll be sitting home watching others go to san antonio.

My predictions for finals are (in this order)
Duncanville

Here is what I think for whatever it's worth!
Duncanville
Wylie
Poteet
McKinney Boyd
McKinney

Allen
Naaman Forest

By the way, I'm usually pretty close!

Favorites would be in no order: Berkner, Coppell, Duncanville, and Rowlett
Dark Horses: Sachse, and North Mesquite(No pun intended)
I will post the schedule after dinner, I'm hungry and the Rangers are getting beat
i think the finals will be:
coppell, duncanville, berkner, rowlett in that order. then lake highlands, sachse, north mesquite. then the final 3 spots will go to either naaman forest, midlothian, lakeview, garland, or robert e. lee

Irving and MacArthur have taken huge steps forward! In fact, this is the first time that Irving HS has ever advanced to Area. The last time they made a I was back when only the top 2 bands in the Region advanced.
DeSoto looked like the could have done well enough if they hadn't have just this week been hit with a very very large number of NP/NP problems. It was a well enough designed show, but it is impossible to deal with having a quarter of your band missing.
I'm excited that it looks like we aren't going to have any problems with Area C reaching 20 bands.
Will the Region 21 bands attend? If not, there will not be 20. Does it take 20 or 21 to have 10 bands compete in finals?

"Garland ISD schools(and only like 2 make it, Sachse, and Rowlett)"
I disagree. Beside Sachse and Rowlett, you can ALWAYS count on Garland Naaman Forest making a 1 at UIL, and I would think that Garland HS and Lakeview would be there as well.
I think all the Garland schools except North and South Garland will be at the Area round.
Don't discount what you do not know as fact.

I agree with most of your predictions, however, I don't think Garland will be in the top 10. Instead, I'd replace them with either Lakeview Centennial or possibly Pearce. Here is how I see the order being:
Duncanville
Coppell
Berkner
Rowlett
N. Mesquite
Lake Highlands
Midlothian
Naaman Forest
Sachse
JJ Pearce
Sachse is down quite a bit from previous years. JJ Pearce is jumpin into the 5A waters again and the last time they were 5A, they struggled to make 1st divisions.
