Most Consecutive Top 3 Finishes


Recommended Posts

If you go to Top 5 you have BD since '75, the only corps of the 'big 5' that can claim that.

Most Consecutive Top 2 Finishes....

Santa Clara Vanguard '85, '86, '87.

...88, 89.

but even then, The Cavaliers had a stretch of seven years, from 2000-2006.

From 1999-2009, Phantom Regiment has finished in every position in the Top 9. In fact, in these past 11 years, Phantom has yet to finish in the same position at Finals two years in a row.

Has any other corps topped these random statistical feats?

I might be wrong, but isn't the most consecutive top two finishes the Blue Devils 79-84?

79 - 1st

80 - 1st

81 - 2nd (3 tenths)

82 - 1st

83 - 2nd (6 tenths?)

84 - 2nd (1 tenth)

6 years of top 2.

Most consecutive top 12 finishes:

72-09 SCV

Darn, ya beat me to it, although it could be restricted to "Top 8 finishes."

Other interesting things to ponder:

--) Can anyone imagine Blue Devils being as inconsistent as Phantom? (Goes back to CI, and the importance of consistent leadership)

--) Before the 2000s, could anyone imagine the Madison Meltdown? (Goes back to CI, and the importance of consistent leadership)

--) Will Crown get on a 10+ yr streak of their own? (Seems likely, as long as they keep consistent leadership.)

--) If Crown joins the New Elite (BD/Cadets/Cavies), will we change our lexicon to Top 4? Which of the three current New Elites is most likely to stay in 4th place? (I pick Cavies, b/c of the change in leadership, per CI.)
