Lake Ridge could place in the top five. They didn't make finals at HEB, but -- seeing as how the scores for HEB prelims have not yet been released -- it's not impossible that they were 11th or so behind Lewisville / The Colony with a bad or mediocre run. -

Thank you, littlejaw, for your commentary and rankings. I'm sure I speak for many others as well when I say that it is appreciated. -
UIL 5A Area 2017
Anthony V replied to Danpod's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
Danpod's dictum about the tractor holds not only between Area prelims and finals, but also between Area finals and State competition. -

2017 BOA Atlanta

No. -
I was there at that contest last year. Keller had an uncharacteristically weak run in prelims, while Keller Central did pretty well in their prelims run. Finals was rained out, so prelims scores were taken as final. Had finals not been rained out, Keller would have jumped up two or more points above Central. For reference, Richland, in exhibition there, probably would have scores somewhere in the 73-76 range. So, I think it's more correct to say that Prosper was at that point just beginning to come somewhat near the performance level of Keller Central.

2017 Area F Predictions??

Finally, some decent weather! -
The only bands in a position to topple CP are Waxahachie and Richland. Maybe Prosper as well. But the chances of that happening are very low. Richland was probably in the best position to do so coming into this season, but they didn't come out of the gate all that hot. As a result, it's hard to say how close (or far) they would end up from CP. Waxahachie has a chance to snag a music judge or two from CP if they are as polished late season this year as they were last; they did it to Keller at DMI last year. It's hard to tell where Prosper is at. It's clear they're good, but how good is that compared to the other three? The most surprising thing I could realistically see them doing is taking 2nd place. EDIT: "But the the chances of that happening are very low" should read as "But the chances of CP being toppled are very low."

2017 Grand Nationals
Anthony V replied to northtexasbandfan's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
I think that's within the realm of the reasonable, just considering the score spread from STL. -
2017 BOA Atlanta
Anthony V replied to Magma31651's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
Haltom is very good, but I think it's more reasonable to slot them somewhere between 5th and 7th. Not saying they can't place higher, but I think it would be an uphill battle. -
2017 Area F Predictions??

I'll need to dig around to see how Aledo has historically done in UIL. I can imagine circumstances in which their boldness, sometimes overextended, would not be preferred to Birdville's more controlled products. A third band potentially in the hunt is Colleyville Heritage.
