[dvillealumni2018]

 

I have all the info thanks to my Leander mom friend, but can’t upload the picture of the score sheet.

is there a way to find scores or not yet?

Preliminary history book post:

 

• Second cycle in a row that a band completely new to 6A makes state finals! And they join the band that did it the prior time. Congrats Waxahachie! The 5As can play with the big boys just fine!
• Along with Waxahachie, Vista Ridge and Cedar Ridge are also first time 6A state finalists! Additionally, this is Cedar Ridge's first time in state finals in any class. They are the only completely new band in this group.
• Marcus now has the longest streak of state finals appearances of any band here. 2006 on. They have a long, long way to go though to get to a record. Thank Westfield for that.
• Eight of the bands repeated from last year. 11 repeated from BOA San Antonio this weekend. I have a hunch it would have been 12 if Waxahachie attended.
• This year marks the first time three Leander ISD schools have made 6A state finals. Fully, 2/3 of that school district has now made the top class's UIL state finals. The only district with a better ratio than theirs is Lewisville ISD, with 4/5 having ever made it. And of course, both LISDs make up half of finals.
• EDIT: adding that Vandegrift and Flower Mound have never missed state finals on any year of advancement to the SMBC. This might also be true for Waxahachie but I'm too lazy to dig that deep sorry.

 

Others to come when prelims results are fully released.

Round rock got 13th

Dang, that's pretty frustrating, but honestly pretty good. Jumped over two bands from their area and beat some really good bands that most expected to be in finals. Goes to show how much talent those kids have, I couldn't be prouder of them.

As usual, I’m skeptical until I see it for myself. Which is why I’m excited to be back at state for the first time in 6 years

[dylan123]

can someone send the link for the results

[principalagent]

Results aren't public, but the recaps are flying around. They're likely in your directors' packets.

[LeanderMomma]

Yes directors have them.

[Txpharmguy]

RR 13th

Bowie 17th

Westlake 21st

Hendrickson 25th

[Txpharmguy]

FloMo, VR, Vandy top 3

[Bluewinter22]

Wow. What place did Alexander and United get? I’m guessing mid 30’s.

[Chris97]

Results for Pearland and Dawson?

[principalagent]

When will they release prelim results?

 

Right after the champion is announced tomorrow. 

[Avisshadow]

it's a new panel

[Dband2018]

Look at this judging...

We are so angry right now

If that judge at least gave us

21st we would have made finals

Some of the biggest changes in fate...

 

-  Bowie does not make finals, after placing higher than CTJ at Area.

-  Westlake is out after edging out Leander in Area.  

-  Hendrickson well out of finals after great showing at BOA SA.  

-  Round Rock is last band in at Area, and first band out at State.

So we survived the dreaded #1 draw, if barely. The kids are thrilled!

Ugh, Thats ridiculous!

I would put money on them moving up. 1st up is the worst!

[vincentlee1220]

should we be posting the recaps in public like this before finals is over?

Waxahachie missed in 09 due to one wonkey judge.
