Great performances from all the bands so far! I was really impressed by Lakeview. It looks like they have done some cleaning to their show and I’m looking forward to seeing them in finals tonight!

Totally agree! Lakeview has stepped it up, and it’s exciting to see all their hard work paying off.

Just saw Terrell, they sounded great, they have improved a lot. I would say that the only thing holding them back are visuals and marching. Yet, I really enjoyed their show, I am honestly surprised. I especially love it when the woodwinds rotated around the silver tree!

 VERY impressed with Terrell, as well.

Wow! Naaman sounded great!! I loved their solos, especially their trumpet! Their alto sax sounded a bit honky towards the end, he sounded good but also sounded a bit timid. I love their theme, and love it when the drum majors started dancing! Go Naaman you have improved a lot!

[Hottogo01]

I was so entertained by WM cereal killer I did not watch their marchers and only watch them role players, it was so entertaining I hope they make state so I can watch it again! 

[Hottogo01]

Wow, NM improved a crazy ton, they were clean, really really clean, it’s going to be close tonight, I am so excited!

Is this a random order or was NM first coming out of prelims?

The first 5 placed 6-10 in prelims, the second group placed 1-5 in prelims.

It is random order within each grouping.

darn, was really hoping they could make history this year. As a burnt orange band alumni from 2017 us making prelims was a big deal and now there right on the cusp of making state. Still so proud of their growth and where those kids are taking the program💪🏾

[coolsaxguy05]

Great job to everyone tonight!! Very unfortunate to see west drop from 2nd to 6th, they didn’t deserve that, I’m interested to see what the difference was between their prelims run and finals run. 

[coolsaxguy05]

Also, NORTH SWEEP!!!

[MoBone]

Real quick i thought I counted 14 total bands. How were there still 4 state spots? Is it not 1 state spot for every 5 bands? What am I missing?

20 bands made 1s in region that are in area C, 6 bands march military style so they choose not to go, but the decision to not attend doesn’t affect how many state spots there are.

[LJH17]

20 bands qualified - 6 were military that didn’t come to this contest.
