I go to Forney, and we didn’t even attend that comp, so idk what you’re saying. Last week, we attended BOA Dallas and didn’t make finals, but still walked away with a caption and 3rd place in class 3A (boa classification is different). Poteet attended the same comp (BOA Prosper) Forney did this week. Poteet walked away with 28th versus us making finals and walking away with 9th in both prelims and finals. 
 

Don Hanna is an easier competition compared to BOA, so it’s not easy to judge the two schools when they are so different.

Obviously Forney going to win but NM is definitely making second their show is really good compared to Poteet but needs to be cleaned up more before next saturday Area

Time to predict this area yummyyyy

1. Forney 

2. Poteet

3. Anyone else (all of the shows I’ve seen from this area are actually good, I’m serious when I say any one of the other Area C schools can take 3rd).

west got first place in royse city prelims

me personally i think forney poteet and pine tree/west have it in the bag for finals. forney and poteet both attend boa comps which are diffidently harder then don hannah and north getting 4th place, yes norths show is really good but they really dont have that much competition they go against ok and good bands while forney and poteet go agasint state and grand national winning bands i think north may have a change but they dont have it secure yet there show still needs alot of work.

 my predictions are
1. forney - with caption and 3rd in class 3a
2. poteet - also with caption and made 9th in prelims and finals
3. west - with caption and 1st in royse city prelims and made finals 

 i also want to mention that poteet was number 1 rated in mesquite and north was 3th during the mesquite marching festival 

1. poteet - best ensemble together - caption with best drumline 
2.west - good musicality - caption with best color guard and best snares 
3. north -best visual - best solo and good front ensemble
4. mesquite - good visual and best basses
5. horn - good musicality and good tuning

poteet’s supposed 9th in prelims and finals was actually Forney. my original message with that one dude earlier this thread wasn’t clear, but Poteet got 28th in boa north Texas (or boa prosper). Forney got 9th in prelims, advanced to BOA North Texas finals and took 9th with a score of 80.35, and Forney also got 13th overall in BOA Bedford with an award in Class 3A for Visual Performance.

in addition Forney also took home 5th in HEB Marching Contest this year, and also got prelims awards for Music Soloist and Visual Ensemble, as well as 2nd place in Class 5A.

I’ve heard that 23 bands in the Area made 1’s!?!?! Means they are taking 4 to state. What are y’alls predictions now?

Expand  

That’s so big! I’d say Forney, North Mesquite, Poteet and either West or Pine Tree, both have been having great seasons but taking 4 is such a W!

4 going to state out of this competition is going to make it VERY interesting. The only program that’s for sure is Forney. Every other spot is going to be very competitive. 
 

As someone with no skin in this game, it would be cool and historic to see all Mesquite ISD 5A programs make state.

I also think that will mean 10 finalists if theres more then 20 that qualified, even though there will probably be less then 20 bands actually at the contest. 

Expand  

Yeah, my band qualified and our director told us there was 23 that are advancing to area. Im willing to bet under 20 will actually go, leaving 3 state spots. 

Posted

So we have 4 bands advancing to state (I believe correct me if I am wrong), but here are my final predictions:

1. Forney

2. Poteet

3. North Mesquite

4. West Mesquite / Red Oak / Terrell
 

idk who to put in 4th, but I’m most likely going with West Mesquite.
