J-Mike16 Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Also I believe Panther Creek broke the Lake Ridge 2013 and Lake Belton 2021 Record on making State Finals in only their 2nd year in existence. Panther Creek did that and then on top of that, got a silver medal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post itsjaredh97 Posted November 13, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Not directly related to state, but here are some fun stats from Grand Nats that I found out. Some were already made known about and some I had to do some digging. Since 2019, there has been a new champion every year. (Vandegrift, Broken Arrow, Carmel, Avon) Bentonville became the first band from Arkansas to make finals at Grand Nationals. They also broke 90 for the first time at a BOA competition. Hebron has won the music caption and gotten 3rd place at every Grand Nationals they have attended. (2015, 2019, 2023) They also achieved the highest overall music score in BOA history. (19.8 in finals) Avon won their first Eagle since 2010, despite being on every podium since 2007. They were also the only band to improve their score from semis to finals. This was the first time since 2006 that there was a different winner in prelims, semifinals, and finals competition. (2023: Hebron, Carmel, Avon. 2006: LD Bell, The Woodlands, Broken Arrow) 2023 was just the second time at Grand Nats (2021) and 4th time ever at a BOA event (2017 and 2022 SA SR) that all finalist bands received a score of 90 or higher to qualify for finals. 2023 was also the second year ever (2019) in which the winner of Grand Nats failed to earn a higher score than the winner of the San Antonio Super. (2023: 97.45 to 97.6, 2019: 97.15 to 97.3) All 3 Texas bands who were the first out of finals are from Area D. LeanderMomma, ReveriesOp24, Dave609 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeto2401 Posted November 16, 2023 Report Share Posted November 16, 2023 Robinson (4A) who placed 25th this season in prelims, has more state championships than Vandegrift (6A) and Hebron (6A) combined Only 64 schools in Texas have won a State Championship as of 2021 Sundown (2A) has the most State appearances with 27 prelims appearances, 25 finals appearances, and 7 state championships Argyle (4A in 2021, 5A in 2022 and 2023) has had the most state championships with 8, but now being moved to 5A, they didn't even make the state, and was one place from making state Celina (4A) went from not making state at all, to winning the state championship back to back.

IF this wiki article is correct-- It's an interesting view of the Texas state champs in all classifications over the years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Texas_UIL_State_Marching_Band_Competition_Winners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeto2401 Posted November 16, 2023 Report Share Posted November 16, 2023 also want to add one more thing Georgetown (5A, but referring to the 4A times) Had 6 state champion wins in a Row from 1980-1985 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually the third time in Grand Nats history that the top 12 all broke 90 in semifinals. The first time it happened was in 2007.
