Gdub Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 Trust me when I say this again.......McKinney North is a 4A school just like McKinney High. McKinney Boyd is the only 5A school in MISD. Quote
JustAddWat3r Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 has there ever been an area that sent 7 or more bands to state? Quote
ftwdrummer Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 OK, given that McKinney North isn't 5A...no, there is no possibility of Area B sending 5. Area B has 29 5A bands, tops. Quote

I already asked that a while ago and here's what the genius came up with: Xenon said: It looks like it happens for one area every year. 2000 Area F: Clements Langham Creek Stephen F Austin Pearland Clear Lake Cy-Falls 2002 Area C: Berkner Rowlet The Colony Plano East Lewisville Creekview 2004 Area E: Cinco Ranch Cy Fair Cypress Falls Langham Creek Ronald Reagan Winston Churchill 2006 Area G: Brownsville Hanna Harlingen Donna SA Taft PSJA North Harlingen South Props to Xenon.

takigan Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 Almost looks like a cycle. It'll be D that sends 6 this year....so if Area B sends 6 in 2010 and Area A sends 6 in 2012, then we'll have a complete 7-Age cycle of the UIL Zodiac. Quote

blahaha Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 I have a feeling Area G will send 6 again this time. Quote

ftwdrummer Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 Yeah, I meant 6...thanks for the save, Xenon. Quote
rpd Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 blahaha said: I have a feeling Area G will send 6 again this time. Probably. Region 11 gave a lot of ones today. I don't know exactly who got them though other than us though. Quote
horn_r1 Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 So far in Regions 11, 15, and 28, thirty-one bands have advanced to the Area contest. If i'm not mistaken, as long as four or more bands from Region 14 received a division 1, then Area G will send 7 bands to state. Quote

The rumor is that Region 14 advanced 6 5A bands to Area (I don't have specifics on which ones), thus making Area G have 37 bands. This means that Area G is going to be a really really long contest and will be taking 7 bands to State. Quote

Donezo Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 Adding to Xenon's list of 6 bands advancing: 2000 Area C Duncanville Coppell Berkner Plano East Lake Highlands Newman Smith 2002 Area E Langham Creek Reagan Cypress Falls Churchill Taylor Seguin Quote
Danpod Posted October 19, 2008 Author Posted October 19, 2008 I really wish all of the Region Contests went down yesterday. It would so much easier to update the list! Although some Regions will have their contests on Monday or Tuesday, here's a list of the Regions we still need: Region 4 Region 5 Region 8 Region 9 Region 10 Region 12 (3A) Region 14 Region 16 (South Zone) Region 17 Region 18 Region 19 Region 22 Region 23 If anyone has any updates, please let us know. Thanks again, folks! Quote
slartibartfastnn Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 FYI...Area C 2000 - 5 were slotted to advance per # of bands at Area. 6 advanced only because of a scoring error...they announced the wrong 5th place band at first because there was a three-way tie for 5th and it was broken incorrectly. If I remember correctly they used the old "add the high and low back in" instead of "judges preference". So the original 7th placed band was actually the winner of the tie breaker and leapfrogged the 6th place band (which was 6th with either tie-breaker) to advanced to state. Therefore the originally announced 5th place band was actually 7th with the correct tie-breaker but they let them advance anyway since they screwed up an announced it. So we had probably the one instance in the history SMBC when a 7th place band advanced and the 6th place stayed home. Weird huh...hope that was clear as mud. And don't ask who was who because it is not important...just thought I'd share a little history so mistakes like this aren't forgetten and hence repeated.

queso2992 Posted October 19, 2008 Posted October 19, 2008 (edited) There is a possibility for 6 bands to advance to state from area B...I don't know if there have been any 5A bands that have not recieved a one so far in this area but according to http://uilforms.com/regions/2/AREA%20MARCH...mOrder-3A5A.pdf, there are 30 5A bands in area B Edit: ok so I figured out that on the link above, it lists Granbury as a 5A band, but on the official result link listed previously, Granbury is a 4A band...so does anyone know for sure which they are?

My mom said she thought yall were really good! (i think you guys played either right before or right after my band) She was talking to me after the contest, and made it a point to talk about how much she liked yalls show, lol. (But then again, my mom is no expert) But i though that you guys wearing your real uniforms this year made you look wayyyyy more professional. Does your band director not record your performances for yall to watch afterwards? Quote
