Well the corps does not update their website very often, but members of the corps have been speaking freely about it.

Will the Citations be in the top 5 with their new staff?

Top five, could go in almost any order

1. Jersey Surf - Should have won last year, but what a battle.

2. Spartans - Low entertainment level (IMO) but always solid all around.

3. BDB - Always under rated feeder corps that has made it's own name stick out.

4. SCVC - Ditto.

5. Teal Sound - Visual design has dropped significantly in the last few years, but love the big brass sound.

Middle of the pack

6. OC – Under rated groups often ignored, great talent great new staff.

7. Beatrix - If they compete in open they will open some eyes, lots of fun to watch, probably placed too high, but great group.

8. Revo - Great GE hopefully bigger then last year

9. Raiders - consistent

10. Fever

Bottom of the top end.

11.Cap Sound - Really wish they would have gone to finals last year, their show went from tolerable to great, by far the biggest jump in quality.

12.Impulse - They're due to bounce back

13. Dutch Boy - Over hyped, over rated, great group, I just don't think they have the talent, I've been wrong before.

14. VK - Decent first year, good turn out, if they're numbers and talent don't improve, they won't see finals.

And the rest.

15. Marion Cadets - Usually have a good draw, but with their Ali like return to the ring all will depend on numbers

16. 7th Regiment - Strong teaching corps, could move up into the next group.

17. Colt Cadets - Constant program improvement, always fun to watch, love to see the that the Colts World class corps are always in the stands for them.

18. Mystical - Word is they are also returning, best of luck

19. Targets - Always a fun group to watch, struggles with numbers, but show tenacity even in the face of adversity (their transportation struggles last year)

20. Sprit of Newark - Another small corps that’s usually fun to watch

21. H.Y.P.E. - The Canadian Kids in the cool uniforms with the brass...brass. Show design struggled last year, but they did a nice job over all.

22. Racine Scouts - The group that never dies, fun shows but show design struggles mightily, "cheese" does not sell, as should have been apparent the last 10 years, regularly play music over the head of the talent level. But none the less a DCI mainstay that's forever improving and entertaining.

23. Les Stentors - Another Canadian group that struggles with membership. Used to be a beast in DivIII so one never knows.

24. BDC - never really meant to be a competitive corps, but it doesn’t take anything away

Good list. Well thought out. One reason I enjoy "Open Class" Corps is you just never really know how it's going to shake out until it all starts and gets rolling. It will be interesting to see how your predictions turn out.

That being said... didn't you forget a certain Corps from Spokane WA? :tongue:
