Review of the Corps

July 26, 1969 Carlisle, Pennsylvania 1 Connecticut Hurricanes 79.95 2 Yankee Rebels 76.40 3 Reading Buccaneers 76.05 4 New York Skyliners 75.95 5 New Bedford Whalers 59.95

this was i think suns first show with a female guard. it was a huge american flag section. and they still beat us.

this was the week the hurcs made their big move on a run to win DCA. they had won before but this show put distance between them and the rest of DCA. this is what i meant that this was the week corps made their moves to win it all.

because we crushed them that year. not so sure it was fair now that you bring it up. or maybe we just sucked that night. only the judges know for sure chuck. you are such a homer.

I didn't check but just how many times that season did Rochester see Sunrisers ?The frist show that year if i recall correct for the female guard was the DREAM .The Sunrisers had an all male american flag squad throught out 69 .The girls in the guard just 9 of them the frist year came from completing colour guards on Long Island ,one guard from Massapeaqua an the other from College Point .
