Then you'd have atleast 8 Texas schools in finals with the possibility of the top 3 being Texas schools.

I'd say have Farmersville and Yoe as definite sleepers. They are both killing it in sound.

The schedules are up on UIL: http://www.uiltexas.org/music/marching-band/state Who is predicted to make finals?

What are the predictions for the 3A schools to Advance from Area to State?

Where did you find the schedule for Area D?

I have noticed the same! It is very up in the air!

Question: Region 18 and 26 are a joint competition, where they combine both regions. So since two 3A schools cone from each region, would both be allow to Area due to their Regions being separate?

I have heard the same, I've seen Cameron Yoe, Jourdanton, and Teague they are putting out great shows. Yoe has a tremendous sound, definitely one of the bests I've heard so far this year.

Definitely, I believe we will see a greatly improved group, especially from 3A.

Is their any word on the 3A catagory? Has anyone seen some of the top groups?

Thank you!

Would anyone know the results from yesterday?

Where can you find the results from Prelims?

Where are the overall results from this contest?

I highly understand that, but I did not say they were as good as the higher classifications. I said that where they were 3 to 5 years ago, they have improved.

I respect your take on the subject, but I must counter it. If you watch the top groups from 2009 and compare them to the top in 2015 you'll notice groups in 2009 were just trying to play as loud as possible where as groups in 2015 are starting to play with a fuller tone quality. Also the drill being done now is a lot tougher than it was in the past few years along with that harder shows are being done. But, that is just my take on it.

I just wanted to start a topic to keep up with the smaller schools. These divisions keep getting better and more talented every year! These kids work hard, I want to hear about which programs are showing great improvements and great potential for the State competition and even potential to earn hardware!

I believe the moment Leander and Vandegrift went to 6A, 5As fate was sealed, Cedar Park all the way. As for 3A you've got your usuals Whitesboro, Cameron and a strong Mineola group, but look out for Jourdanton who just came off of a TMEA State Honor band title. 2A, you have the war between Sundown and New Deal, but keep an eye out for Kerens. 1A is practically anyone's game.

Good luck Texas!

How is James Bowie?

How is Tarpon Springs this year?

I hope Texas can bring home the gold! #TeamTexas!

How's Leander's performance?

Who was judge 5? He stuck out like a sore thumb compared to the other judges...

Both Miliatrys made finals! Superb!
