bingogooberman Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 after 6 consecutive state finals appearances, Wakeland finally lands on the podium, snagging the bronze medal and nearly earning silver. Congrats! It's long overdue in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ_THE_DRUMMER Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 It’s my first time to actually look at the scoring. But I was surprised as to the variation from the judges. Look at Friendswood. How does one judge give them a 3 and another give them a 12? Sharyland had 7 by one judge and 23 by another... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBB Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 It’s my first time to actually look at the scoring. But I was surprised as to the variation from the judges. Look at Friendswood. How does one judge give them a 3 and another give them a 12? Scoring is always so interesting. I recall in 2017 where Roma’s scores for prelims were 7, 8, 10, 10, & 22 placing them in 11th place and missing state finals. I wonder if the 22 was anything closer to the other scores if they would have advanced then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlejaw Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 I’ll be the first to admit that I call out poor UIL judging and numbers management, but nothing seemed egregious or surprising. If this is the type of scoring we get every year, I’ll be much happier. Congrats to all of the 5A bands on a great year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeKyu Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 What a show! What a contest! Contests like this is the reason that I prefer UIL to BOA. The focus is on performance rather than the entertainment value or the "Wow!" factor of the performance. This allows bands like Highland Park (great show, extremely well played, nicely crafted and arranged) to have a chance to shine right alongside polar opposite shows of bands like Wakeland and their more BOA styled show. Huge congrats to Cedar Park, Highland Park, and Wakeland. They stood out and the scores reflected it. I think this year's finals contest was the closest from top bottom that we have seen since the realignment. Even the judging panel was no slouch! Great job to everyone involved.

bxOxAxUIL Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Dunno about that. And yeh the other poster later brings up great names and all but outside the top 3 the finals ordinals for the other groups was like a freakin dartboard: Rouse 5 and 10 in visual Friendswood 8 3 & 12 in music 4 & 9 in visual Lone Star 6 12 & 9 in music Same ol, good ol UIL... I'm curious to how the shadow panel with the new sheet did tonight? Shadow panel? Explain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natertater21000 Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Shadow panel? Explain. Due to a recent vote UIL will start having 7 judges instead instead of 5 for state finals. Yesterday there was a "shadow panel" of 7 judges that scored the state contest. Their scores didn't effect the results, they just wanted to test out the change.

Maybe they should throw out the highest and lowest score of the seven judges? Did the judges have A badges? I saw several people with A badges on the field making voice notes into their phones during the performance. Nobody talked to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unsure whether or not the highest and lowest will be thrown out. I doubt the people on the field were on the shadow panel due to UIL never having field judges. I could be wrong though. I honestly didn't even notice them down there while I was on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquaflamma85 Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Did the shadow panel have different placements? Would be interesting to see if the 7 judge panel gave a different outcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmtb617 Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 I wish uil posted prelims caption and class winners like boa does. Who is live streaming this, anyone? Btw, the legendary Philip Geiger, former Westfield band director) was a judge yesterday. Amanda Drinkwater is one of the judges tonight. Should interesting, very different style preferences there. Nice!! I remember hearing Philip Geiger judged last year’s state contest (6A) as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TX_Band Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Congratulations to all of the 5A finalist bands as well as those that competed in prelims on Monday. What a great couple of days showcasing some of the best bands that Texas has to offer. Special congratulations to our 3 medalists Cedar Park, Highland Park and Wakeland!!

BandKid? Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Can I just say that Rouse did an amazing job. When our band went back to watch the finals performance, I saw this band and it was amazing the music the visual, everything was great. If there was a GE score I would give it to them, but that's just me. Good job Rouse!!! gregorydf01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanBandAlum Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Rouse’s clarinet soloist was insane! Probably one of my favorite moments of the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the people on the field were on the shadow panel due to UIL never having field judges. I could be wrong though. I honestly didn't even notice them down there while I was on the field. I doubt high and lows will be thrown out. It seems closer to what the BOA format will be. 4 music judges: Woodwinds, Brass, Percussion and Ensemble. Now I am assuming here that is what the 4 music judges will be scoring being that what we know for sure is that there are 4 music judges and there are 4 new sheets with these captions listed being proposed. I mean the pieces kinda fit...unless it's 3 music judges who get the ensemble sheets and 1 judge who gets to fill out the woodwind, brass, perc sheet. We will know for sure though by next marching season or sooner as news comes out. Then you have 2 visual sheets: one for ensemble and one for individual (this could explain the guy on the field that the other poster noticed) and the 7th judge looks to be more of a GE guy being as the sheet is labeled "Content & Design." Good contest though!!! Can't wait for 6A's next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWHSParent Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Slight tangent, but I found it interesting that the UIL contracted with one of the PA announcers that does BOA events. Don't think that has happened before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be interesting to see if the 7 judge panel gave a different outcome I doubt they will ever release these scores, it’s probably just for UIL information to test it out. They’re probably shredded and burned to prevent a riot. Papajohnspizza and El Gato_01 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re probably shredded and burned to prevent a riot. Exactly this. The numbers from the shadow panel are for UIL purposes only. I am certain that small changes to the sheets and processes will need to be done before everything gets finalized so that it may be fed to the judges for training.

bingogooberman Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 https://youtu.be/VsOSwdFNbao Thank you!! Great show from them, they’ve improved so drastically over the last few years. Pretty remarkable stuff from such a small ensemble. Rainbow connection was stunning! I wonder why their membership is so low compared to similarly sized schools. Maybe their success will help with recruitment. It’s about time they start attending BOA, they would be firmly in the running for finals at just about any regular season regional tysharpe03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
