principalagent Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 For what it’s worth, Dripping Springs beat Cedar Park at Area D in 2011 by A LOT in both rounds and then Cedar Park won state easily - even getting straight first place votes in prelims! Quote

Nah, but honestly area rankings rarely have any useful data when it comes to further predictions. They are always wack. Vista ridge won area D in 2013 and then things got set back to the correct order immediately the following week. Quote

inmysights31 Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 It’s hard to believe too. Dripping spring came out there on fire and cedar park had a small tear in the latter part of their show but still. I’m very surprised. Quote

NTxBandMom8 Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 Did you make it to Area B tonight for finals? If so, I don't know how you could type without your fingers freezing together! I'm out here, and I'm thinking the last few bands are really going to be hurting. 42 degrees. Brrrr........... Quote

Idk, I was at 2013 finals, and while I started having serious problems with the results at 4th place, I thought 1-2-3 was the correct order *that night*. gregorydf01 1 Quote
