For what it’s worth, I’m glad for the kids at CP that they’ll get a performance today. I also think it’s fair that they will be in exhibition. I would feel awful for the first band out if CP took their spot in finals. Well handled by TMC staff! Bravo!

I was heading home from Waco and was THIS close to taking the exit off of I-35 to Kelly Reeves Athletic Complex, but I yawned and missed the turn.

Was anyone able to see CP exhibition? TMC’s Twitter seemed to like it, just wanted to hear from someone who was there as to what we missed out on from Waco.

After we got back from Waco, a few of us went to watch TMC, we only saw Reagan and CP because we watched CP in the lot. We decided not to go to finals because that would mean we would have to wait around for nearly 2 hours for Cedar Ridge.

Here's a link to the Cedar Park run at TMC. Thanks to the staff and organizers for allowing CP to perform in exhibition. Amazing job by the Cedar Park staff in getting the band out of warm up staging, getting the show arranged, and getting the kids mentally ready to perform in Austin.  

 

I saw the scores. It looks like Rouse performed their hearts out. Reagan was impressive. Georgetown was a fun show (how many times do you see a decapitation on the field).

MacArthurs performance was heartwarming. A few years ago that program got a 2 and had well under 100 people in the program. They have come very far in a few short years.

LT got screwed over a lot. They've been told by their directors they got 2nd in prelims ahead of Rouse, and the kids were saying the finals run was their best run by far. Judges also later told us we were on pace to beat Reagan.

 

I don't think that's true.

Why would a judge ever say that?

This is from Hornrank- it doesn’t list the Auxiliary caption- TMC hasn’t posted prelims on their site yet.

Last year’s preliminary results weren’t posted until May of this year, so it is not unusual for the scores not to be up.

I can imagine LT being in a better position than their finals placement and even 2nd. Why would a judge comment on any group’s potential to rise or sink in finals and specifically name another band they can pass? I’m not sure on that.

 

But, the 15 minute break and them not finishing, that’s a tough one. Rough season for a lot of kids.

I found it interesting that there was a 15 minute break in finals. If it were not for that break, Lake Travis would have been scored.

I don’t understand. Why did this happen?

Thanks Danpod for the edit. The claim didn’t make sense based on Hornrank’ s listed results

According to my event schedule, this was a planned break between top and bottom half.

I am confused as to why Lake Travis wasn’t scored. Were they a last minute addition from Waco?

No they were from Yamaha cup down here in San Antonio, and they got scored in prelims so I don’t understand why they didn’t get scored in finals.

Via the Texas Marching Classic:

 

Due to weather causing Lake Travis to end their show prematurely, they opted not to be scored in finals. They will be considered an exhibition band
