I have heard rumors that Panther Creek is a feeder school for Hebron, does anyone know if this is true?

I believe panther creek would be a Lewisville ISD school, unless i'm wrong.

panther creek would also probably be a 5A or 6A if so, because of how much people live in the Lewisville ISD area

Area A will only have 3 state spots this year. So far 15 bands will advance to Area. The final 2 bands from Region 6 have Regions on Tuesday for a max of 17 bands to Area. 

Ended up with 18, got close to 20.  Regions 16 and 22 were kind of a bloodbath.  Riverside is the biggest shocker for me, I've been super impressed with every video I've seen of them this year.  I think they were a better band this year, despite how UIL went.  Sometimes you get a brutal panel and get a ton of 2s.  They'll be back next year.  

Canyon ISD trio and Pecos are all very strong this year again, I hate that someone is going to get left out this year.  Was cool last year seeing all the Area As in either the teens or finals, growth up here has been awesome.  I love seeing area become super competitive.  Andrews has a super fun and visually captivating show this year, Big Spring is always solid, Hereford sounds and looks better than they have in a long time, etc.   Should be a fun contest next week.

Riverside getting a 2 shocked me big time. I too have been enjoying them the last few years and do think they will be back next year.

Someone big is going to miss advancing to State and it could be any of the Canyon ISD bands and/or Pecos.

Area A has grown to be more competitive than what it used to be like. Not at the level of Areas B & C but at around where Area E is.

I'm also excited especially because we will see some new finalists this year and some new medalists. Again region 25 will be the best the state has to offer therefore area c is now the most competitive. I'm excited how area b will hold up against area c this year because area b lost all their bands basically.

even though they did lose their bands, there are a TON of competitive ones, like China Spring, Gatesville, Aubrey, Krum, etc.

Yeah well they lost farmersville who is now in area c. I have Farmersville in my top 5 maybe even a silver medal. They aren't too clean right but the progress their making with the absurd show is remarkable. I'm not too sure they will top both sulphur springs and celina at area but maybe one. I do think thanks to how clean their getting and how difficult their show that by state they will surpass both celina and sulphir springs. Now I'm basing that off the constant progress they have been making if they let off they will not do that. But yes area b still has a of great bands from old area b and some of those I think will be our new finalists due to area b always being a bloodbath. Thankfully a few bands have moved up or to another area so those bands that were stuck can advance now.

Lol, who is this? Just say we.

Do we think we still have representations for all 5 areas in state finals this year?

It is possible! I personally believe though that if there isn't, then it will be the first 2 out of finals.

My generalized thoughts on how many from each area will be in finals-

Area A- 1 (or 2)

Area B- 2 (or 3)

Area C- 4 (or 3)

Area D- 1 (or 0)

Area E- 2
