DCA Kicks Off 2017 Competition Season

DCA kicked off its 2017 competition season in grand style Saturday evening, June 24th in West Pittston, Pennsylvania with five DCA corps battling for position plus two outstanding corps in exhibition. The White Sabers came out victorious as they hit the field extremely prepared. The new uniforms are without a doubt fan friendly with a unique light blue and white color combination. The Bushwackers are starting the season much improved in all sections and may sneak up on a few corps as the season progresses. Placing a solid second and topping the Percussion caption the Bushwackers are off to a very promising start. The Connecticut Hurricanes are small in numbers this season but still presented a fan friendly and crowd pleasing show. Matthew Piros and Cristina Garbalosa are the new Drum Majors leading the Hurricanes forward this season. Our hosts for the evening, the Skyliners, are also ahead of last season in terms of being prepared. Once the last portion of the show is in place, good things lie in store for them. The Erie Thunderbirds are off to a great start this season and tonight were the only corps competing in Class A. Their show is more demanding in drill than last year and yet remains fan friendly. They are definitely further ahead at this point of the season compared to the past few.
