Marcus, Flower Mound, and Hebron obviously have a rivalry that runs deep on the field, but I think the respect that those three schools have for each other is also pretty unique. I remember when Hebron won their first medal at state in 2012, Marcus was walking by the Hebron busses on our way home and they took a moment to celebrate with us and really uplift us. That’s the kind of interschool relationship that makes this activity fun.

well, marcus won state that year so what did you expect? its a power move

This was coming off a 2011 season where Hebron didn’t even make finals at San Antonio. None of us expected to be anywhere close to the medal stand at state in 2012. I could see your point if it were present day Vandegrift and Hebron having this interaction, two schools at the height of their powers and in constant competition, but this was an entirely different situation.

He was referring to BOA SA, there was no 5A state contest in 2011.

I also know that Mineola vs Whitesboro is pretty big

I would think that Mineola vs any 3A school, but Winnsboro put a target on them for sure... especially since 2 of their band directors have gone to Mineola in the past 4 years.

Hebron was 23 ordinal points behind Marcus that year. Hard to compare because they still used a five judge panel as opposed to the current seven judge system. For the sake of my point, let’s look at the area j contest this year, which uses five judges. Hebron won with a score of 7. 22 points behind them was Prosper, and 24 behind them was Braswell. Both amazing groups, especially relative to the average Texas band, but I don’t think most people could say they’re “close” to Hebron.

This is more of a football battle, but I still wanna put Rockwall vs. Rockwall Heath
