Doing some homework on this one
Wakeland had the 8 slot in prelims out of 22, not long after the rain had mostly stopped at the Area contest. They were 1 point out of a first place tie with Lonestar and they (Lonestar) were 2nd to last in the 21 spot. Lonestar has a great show and are certainly one of the top 5A bands in the state of Texas, no shame in finishing 2nd in prelims to them.
At Prosper the also had the 8 slot out of 30 bands. Scored an 85.7 which tied Prosper 6A and was .9 from LD Bell 6A which had 1st place in prelims.
In both contests, Wakeland had a later draw in Finals, which everyone agrees is the best place to be. Just my thoughts but having an early draw at both events and being within a point of 1st in both events is not a bad place to be.
Wakeland swept finals in Area, all 1st place positions and they won BOA Prosper by 2.25 points.
