alien0726 Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Little elm, an upcoming band with one heck of a colorguard:they're much bigger than I remember them..... More swaying in an opening set cool drum major start off killing off band members in the opener?? I like it tuning issues on the first note tuning issues in general... Mostly trumpets and flutes the show is kinda dark and twisted good fundamentals not a lot of fast paced marching why is this guard soooo good!?!?!?!? Twirling two rifles At the same time! WTF?

eddy725 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 ur right wakeland is fairly new, so is legacy, newman smith has always been stuck in 5A and falling short, and southwest got screwed last area year. i still can't believe there will be no sherman they always seem like a fixture in 4A state i thought legacy used to be a 5A band also...

ftwdrummer Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 No, Legacy opened as a 4A in 2007. Timberview was 5A until Legacy opened; the opening of Legacy pushed Timberview down to 4A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagDad09 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 No, as was pointed out on the other thread, Legacy opened as a 5A school in 2007 - marched as 5A non-varsity in 2007. Go look at 2007 Region 5 marching contest results for proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummerdad Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 i thought legacy used to be a 5A band also... This topic just keeps on giving...Legacy opened in 2007 as a 5A school due to Mansfield ISD's guess on what enrollment would be. Legacy's band went to UIL in 2007 as a 5A non-varsity band. The actual enrollment at Legacy was below projections and they were immediately moved to 4A the next year...2008. The rest of the story is what happens next year. Rumor has it that conference moves may be in store for ALL Mansfield high schools next year based on this year's enrollment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagDad09 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Based on the ADM numbers turned in on October 15th, Mansfield, Mansfield Legacy and Mansfield Timerview ought to be 5A unless the cutoff jumps dramatically. Mansfield Summit is on the bubble but likely will end up on the 4A side of the line. It is very close and will depend on how many schools that asked to "opt up" the UIL chooses to grant.

borchnork Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 What's funny is most of my favorite shows were from the groups that didn't make it. I really enjoyed newman smith and legacys show, but by far my top 3 favorite shows were out of sherman, aledo and the colony. I'd have killed to be the picollo player in aledo's show this year!!!!!!!! Such a fun little solo. =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opening of Mansfield Legacy actually had a greater effect on Mansfield Summit than it did Mansfield Timberview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teresa Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 smith wrecked this competition. (: I am so excited for the state marching competition in San Antonio! We are performing pretty early in the day so I'll finally get to watch other shows for once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan_albert52 Posted October 27, 2009 Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Legacy got new white gauntlets and white plumes. It goes really well with the red and black uniform and it brightens them up a bit, if that makes any sense lol. Gives it more pop than the old black ones. Looks good.

sax5warrior Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 The opening of Mansfield Legacy actually had a greater effect on Mansfield Summit than it did Mansfield Timberview. It did wonders to that Summit band program. Just compare the size of Summit in '06 (who was the 5A Area B alt.) to what it is now, they lost roughly more than half of that band to Legacy.

tofgolf Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 trump - Wakeland just opened in 2006, and started with freshman, sophomores, and juniors only. This year's senior class is the first one to attend Wakeland for all 4 years. My daughter is one of them. They started 2006 with 68 kids total, including guard, and 42(?) of those were freshman, and are now up to approximately 185 - 190. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drummerdad Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 He meant Wakeland.. No, they meant Legacy. Legacy opened in 2007, had three seniors that year, about a dozen last year (they did a great job helping to get things going). When Legacy opened (as is usually the case) all high school students had the choice to stay at their original school, and nearly all upper classmen did...and even this year's senior class is very small compared to the rest of the band. Next year, 2010, Legacy will have their first set of graduating seniors who have attended all four years at Legacy. That said, both the schools being discussed here have achieved great things in a short time...a testament to both the students and directors. Lets congratulate them and wish them and all those bands who are moving onto state the best of luck next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tofgolf Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 drummerdad - well said! The directors at both Wakeland and Legacy have done an incredible job of getting their programs to this level so quickly. I know Gerry Miller has the complete support of school and district administration, and I would assume the director at Legacy does as well. It's good to see that fine arts "gets some love" from these areas (and that is coming from an ex-jock). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
