LostChoirGuy Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 46 minutes ago, 1998-2018 said: Interesting. With everything that has happened there are still Keller doubters. Sure, they finished 14th in SASR Finals so the possibility of missing SMBC Finals has to at least be considered. But the other side of the coin is they also Finished 10th in SASR Prelims. (Likewise, Pearland was 14th and 12th.) Now the absence of 5A Cedar Park also provides some breathing room. Keller has made SMBC Finals every year there was a full competition since 2014. (This excludes the strange 2020 Covid-19 lockdown mini-contest which they didn’t attend, just like most of the state.) This year the design of the show is also intentionally slanted toward the UIL score sheet. I think it’s a coin flip whether the vacated slot is filled by Waxahatchie or Timber Creek. Other than that the only change I’m expecting is the order of finish for the bands. But there’s a reason the contest is settled on the field instead of in the forum. 🙂 Good luck to everyone! Make that last run memorable. I wouldn't worry too much about it. People underestimate Keller pretty much every year. 1998-2018 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTJ was 6th with a 92.53, only 0.13 above Vista Ridge in 7th, who was .05 above Cedar Park in 8th, who was .30 above Coppell in 9th. 0.53 points separated these four bands, just a super narrow margin. Not to mention 10 thru 13 was separated by 0.2 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even remotely worried about UIL. Just intended to politely acknowledge the possibility and a potential reason why some still doubt, as well as an alternative for those who don’t keep the faith. Nothing is guaranteed, but some outcomes are more likely than others. 🤔 Meanwhile, they still doubt and… A groan of tedium escapes me startling the fearful Is this a test?

1998-2018 Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 urmom292, I know there is no malice in your comment, just as there is none in mine. Your comment is fair and reasonably logical, with the possible exception that history is on the side of the Keller Faithful. However, as I have pointed out elsewhere on the forum, history and reputation are nowhere to be found on the scoresheet. As always, an excellent Preliminary run will be required to advance.

bandgeek7874 Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 I don't know who needs to see this, but somebody has to get a video of Hebron in the lot. Curious to hear what that band sounds like in comparison to DCI groups because they truly are a level above every other band musically. Bar has been raised for all bands in the future and they are the gold standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
