Flomo and Marcus should be in attendance per their rotation cycle, as well as Round Rock, TW’s, Hopefully Reagan and CTJ, and ofc any other possible surprises like Coppell or one of the Leander schools (I’m looking at you Rouse . But yeah, Wylie would do great here, easily a semi-finalist and with a super strong show, I see them in finals. Their last 3 shows have been amazing, and last years was just phenomenal!! Expand Gonna be tough for likely state-bound 5A schools to get to Grand Nationals this year, with 5A UIL State on 11/10 and 11/11. But it'd be cool to see them go! Quote

I do remember though they were seeded to at least medal in 2021 and then got 5th so we’ll see what happens but even top 3 would be amazing, though Nats next year is already insane, like might be the most competitive semis Ever Quote

Winning BOA SA against really good groups like Hebron and Vandy has proven that they are a force to be reckon with. Of course, anything can happen, but I have my hopes set high on FloMo to be knocking on Avon's door for the eagle. Quote

Expand Flomo also won SA in 2015 and 2016, before dropping to 6th at SA and 5th at GN in 2017. Consistently holding the top spot in Texas is so difficult. But Flomo taking home the eagle is one of my top wishes for marching band history. Listening to their video last year explaining their approach to design definitely gives me high hopes OWB_Nation 1 Quote
