oh I just realized that. Could it have been because of the wind?

[Dave609]

because it was very windy at that stadium today based on some footage I saw

[LS2FL]

Is the finals order based on prelims results?

If anyone got prelims results, please share!

[deank10]

Thanks! If anyone has the complete prelims, I'm interested in how some of those middle-of-the-pack groups did.

Surprising prelims result! Many band surprised me in term of placement. Sulphur springs was favored second behind Lonestar from what I heard at the competition. Not making top three in their division much less not qualifying for finals was boggling to say the least. Overall a great competition to attend and Great band all around. Can't wait to see how they play out in the future and see them improve. Canton was also a surprisingly placement btw.
