SaxPapi101 Posted October 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 Rowlett really surprised me at Royse City. Heath had a good showing, I just believed they should have gotten first after watching them. Garland also surprised me. I know Rockwall ISD had a fall break, so both Rockwall schools could have done better if they had a full week to practice. North Forney was underwhelming as with mesquite Watching Royse City's exhibition they sounded amazing and looked really good. Royse City Standings 1st. Melissa(5a) 2nd. Rowlett 3rd. Princeton (5a) 4th. Heath Edit. Saw the music scores, and one judge was not fair to heath. Two gave them first while one gave them tenth. Because of that Heath lost to Rowlett by two points. Rowlett and Heath were neck and neck in terms of visual performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave609 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 welp after seeing shows yesterday at the McKinney Marching Invitational, I have to say that my predictions really change- Hebron Flower Mound Marcus Wylie Wylie East Sachse Prosper Lewisville Plano East McKinney Boyd Outside of Finals- Rockwall McKinney Plano Plano West Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClarinetKing Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 Well prosper’s Rock Hill just made a finals appearance at the prestigious BOA DFW placing above the state finalist Southlake Carrol. I expect Rock Hill will surprise everyone in area c and could even potentially make a state appearance. Also to my surprise Wylie placed first over Wylie East in the McKinney Marching invitational although not really feeling these scores as they put Rockwall in 6th and the state finalist colleyville heritage in 7th. Sachse placed 10th at Wylie but then made a huge come back at BOA midland with 3rd place beating lake ridge and summit who originally beat them at Wylie by quite a bit.

So Colleyville Heritage didn't have a great run in finals. Wylie had an AMAZING run in both Prelims and Finals, and Rockwall had a solid run, but Lewisville, Plano East, and Burleson Centennial had much better runs overall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaxPapi101 Posted October 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I honestly see Heath being a contender to make finals possibly beating a Plano band or Allen same with Lewisville. I know both schools didn't do well in area last year both in the lower teens, 16th for lewisville and 17th for heath exactly. But I could possibly see both make area finals if its 12 bands or one of them make area if its ten bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are to many good shows that it would be unfortunate for only 10 finals spots and 5 state qualifiers. I really want there to be 6 state spots for this group. But we don't find out until next Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peshbandkid Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 I don’t know what to make of this area outside of the top 3. The Wylie schools looked strong at McKinney, but so did Lewisville, PESH, and Rockwall. Prosper looks good as always, but so does Rock Hill. Sachse and McKinney Boyd have both made strides this season as well. Its a shame this Area can only advance up to 6 bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wylie 6. Rockhill 7. Rockwall 8. Propser 9. Sachse 10. Boyd 11. PESH 12. Heath 13. Lewisville 14. Plano 15.

SaxPapi101 Posted October 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Whats your top 15 in the area, as well as honorable mentions who could possibly who could crack the top 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Mike16 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 oh lordy...... 1st - Hebron 2nd - Flower Mound 3rd - Marcus 4th - Wylie 5th - Prosper 6th - Wylie East 7th - Rockwall 8th - Rock Hill 9th - Sachse 10th - McKinney Boyd 11th - Plano East 12th - Lewisville 13th - McKinney 14th - Rockwall Heath 15th - Allen I think placements 4th through 9th could be anything. Obviously, this very well could change but, as of tonight this is my list. Dave609 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plano The bolded section is obviously where I had no confidence to determine. McKinney had Lewisville>PESH>Rockwall, but I know for fact that Plano East still has things to add, and I am confident the same is with Rockwall. Sachse and McKinney Boyd were in the bottom half of finals at Wylie (which is a more UIL oriented sheet,) but Sachse bounched back and I am sure Boyd will improve as well. Outside of that block, I think most things will stay where they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the judges can forget, their performances after watching 25+ bands. Who knows maybe Royse City or other bands can change the trajectory of the results.

Tubalord11 Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 I think Allen has a good chance! They definitely are better than last year and making area finals seems to have brought a lot of motivation. They definitely have a more clean sound and it’s very rich. For their size, they are definitely trying to up the notch in terms of difficulty. I wouldn’t count them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are my current predictions: 1st* - Hebron (Swept captions at DFW) 2nd* - Flower Mound 3rd* - Marcus 4th* - Prosper 5th* - Wylie East 6th* - Sachse 7th - Wylie 8th - Rock Hill 9th - McKinney Boyd 10th - Lewisville 11th - Rockwall 12th - Plano East These predictions may or may not change based on the results of the Prosper BOA this weekend. Rock Hill will surprise many at Area C. If you thought Hebron was insane last year they are really bringing the heat this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
