She’s been doing some awesome stuff at west. The high brass and percussion are really giving it some edge over other programs.

Ranchview first (didn’t make finals), followed by SS. I was confused about the prelims sheet as well. It looks like maybe they had a separate percussion and guard judge separate from the other judges based on the scoring sheet someone posted above. Going off the actual prelim rankings, Sulphur was first for percussion and Celina was second. Ranchview was WAY down the list. deank10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasStrangers Posted October 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Based on Division 2 Prelims 2 of the judges seemed to agree on many of the scores and one judge must have been looking at things a lot differently. The Ranchview Percussion award was weird. Also, the one judge who gave Mineola all 7 which cost them 1st overall in Prelims. I am also curious to see final judges results there was a lot of moving around in scores.

BandDad11 Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Does anyone have score sheets for overall/division 1 for either prelims and/or finals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Chappa Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 I’d really like to see the finals sheets for division 2. Mineola (and yes, I’m biased towards them) had a far better performance in finals than prelims, yet plummeted to 6th. That, coupled with winning CG in finals, sounds odd to me.

TexasStrangers Posted October 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Yeah, I was curious how Mineola went from 2nd in Prelims to 6th in Finals. Yet, won Overall Guard and Overall Drum Major in Finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The judging was consistent throughout the contest although it does seem weird that a band as well known as mineola placed so low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A commenter above stated there were additional judges for guard/DM and drums and those scores did not count towards advancement and, I’m assuming, overall rankings and scores.

TexasStrangers Posted October 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2023 I guess we won't really know what happened unless we see the Final Score Card for the judges. All the bands in the finals are very talented and very deserving. I just like to go back and look at lots of band competition scores cards to see how they compare to each other to understand maybe how a band missed out on placement or making finals. You typically see trends of some kind of a glaring weakness that sticks out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
