kevingamin Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Some of the questions waiting to be answered after yesterday's Semifinals performances: Can Blue Devils break the record score of 99.15, previously set by the 2002 Cavaliers and the 2005 Cadets? Can Bluecoats make up the 0.15 deficit to Cadets and take the silver, earning their best placement in their history? Will SCV's drumline be enough to keep them ahead of Crown and their hornline? Can Blue Knights hold off a surging Phantom Regiment and keep hold on 7th? Will Blue Stars and/or Boston break 90? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 Drum solo with the drum line up front. No body movement like we see from DCI drumlines, but it's shocking to me when the Marines even do a simple foot cross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
