Congratulations to Churchill as well. They’ve had a rough few years but you can always tell they keep fighting the good fight . McNeil impressing as well.

Lake Belton most definitely surprised a couple of people at this contest. Also I did not expect Brandeis to place that low. Either way congrats to all the finalists!!

I was really impressed with Lake Belton. They have come a very long way.

Churchill's show is so very entertaining. Just a treat to watch.

And McNeil's sound is fantastic. By far the best I have ever heard from them.

+1 to everything you said here.  All the shows were great.  I was surprised by McNeil finishing in 2nd place though.  But when looking at the finals recap, it appears one visual judge really didn't like McNeil...placing them 7th.  That lone outlier was enough to give Churchill the win.

What a Churchill W. Predicted 3rd after a 5th place finish last year and took 1st this year. They’re on the up. I think Churchill could make state this year and could def be top 5 at BOA Waco. 

Churchill's has definitely improved but Area D is a beast so not sure about them making state. If only 5 advance, they have to beat at least 4 of the following bands.   

CTJ

Reagan

Round Rock

Westwood

Dripping Springs

Cedar Ridge

Bowie

McNeil

Yes, they beat McNeil but Dripping Spring beat McNeil the week before that at Capital City and Dripping Spring was beat by Westwood, Round Rock, Cedar Ridge the week before that at BOA Austin.  And we know both SA schools are going to make it as well.

But aren’t a few of them going to Nats? They might be able to sneak in. 

Round Rock is going to Grand Nationals...but their band calendar also lists the state marching championships as well...so I'm assuming that means they'll go to state if they qualify.

Westwood's calendar shows them going to St Louis Super Regional...and San Antonio Super Regional...and state marching contest if they qualify...all within a span of 10 days.  That seems like a nightmare from a logistics standpoint but we've seen bands do it before.

Dripping Springs is going Grand Nationals and their band calendar shows state marching contest but no BOA San Antonio.

Bowie is going to Grand Nationals and they have both BOA San Antonio and State on their calendar.

CTJ is going to Grand Nationals but their band calendar isn't showing anything so not sure what they are doing.

So we'll see who drops out of state if they qualify to advance.

Why?

This is just a weird contest for any Killeen school to go to, but I applaud them for even trying seeing as they got a 1 at region last year for the first time in like 20 years 💀
