I feel like Prosper is a bit low considering they’ve been pretty high up at this contest consistently.

Would love for Hamilton to win AA and maybe make finals? I need to do some research on them

I watched their show from last season, very good. I think they definitely have a strong chance of taking AA but I think finals may be out of reach just looking at how they were this time last year, but I’d love for them to have two performances. Also really great schedule, tough spot for Reedy but the blocks are pretty matched in strength, this will be a great one.

We’ll also in 2A is Liberty (I think) and they were pretty good last year and are the reigning 2A champion of last year.

Lake Hamilton made G Nats Semis a few years ago and did quite well.  I remember really liking their show.

Yeah it’s for sure not guaranteed but I think both bands have a super strong shot, plus Melissa had a very good season last year, 2A will be a good battle

Looking at the schedule in depth now and here’s my takeaways from it.

 

Rockwall Heath and Rick Reedy have real early morning times. Really hope that doesn’t affect their show.

 

Wylie and Prosper up early will be a nice watch, at least for me.

 

That third block is insane. Would hate to be in that block with all the finalist potentials in there.

 

Obviously saved the best for last with Marcus going last. Also rough draw for Forney to be in between Coppell and Marcus, but I think they can still pull it off.

I got the privilege to make it to Rock Hill and Walnut Grove high school’s parent showcase and I’m very impressed to say the least. Rock Hill and their show was a big step up creative wise from past years and it finally feels like they’re stepping away from crowd pleasers and heading towards more competitive shows like they had in 2022. Also enjoying their visual aspects which I feel like struggled last year. I also really like their trombone parts (I’m slightly biased). Walnut Grove in the same way surprised me. To be frank they haven’t been the best since their opening in comparison to other PISD schools but watching the content in their first two parts was really entertaining and challenging. It feels like they’ve finally created a show that represents their program. On top of that a parent over there was talking about how they had 3 ensembles qualify for music for all’s convention in Indy. So I’ll be curious to see how that’ll transfer from concert band to marching! Lastly, I think if performed to the best of their ability both of these schools could make a deep impact into finals!

Both bands I feel like will have great years this year. Rock Hill is definitely a one who could sneak into finals and Walnut could also compete.

I don't know why schools like Commerce and Whitesboro go to this event when they could go somewhere else and compete with schools more on their level especially since scoring is completely different then UIL which is what their shows are geared for.

It could just be they give out quality feedback at BOA

Boa is a great experience for all schools regardless of size. Obviously more beneficial for larger schools but getting to perform in front of large crowds is more fun for the students, especially if they win their class, and they are still receiving great adjudication

Where did that prelim schedule come from? There is nothing posted on the BoA site or anywhere.

But they took it down or are reformatting the sites, for now the posted schedule in here is the schedule unless otherwise stated

I’m not sure who pissed of the walnut grove design staff, but the demand for the back half of their show is on a completely different level than their past outings. Excited to see them piece it together.
