emc2 Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 That'd be a 1-2 Calif. finish if it happened. Trivia questiion... Its happened before. When was the last time, 2 Calif. based Corps finished, 1-2 at Finals ? Can not say to early. SCV has a long way to go to match the barri solo from Boston 2011. which IMO was one of the best solo in DCI history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I wonder if one of the other CA corps will ever finish that high. Mandarins-Pacific Crest for 2023! Baby steps. If either could find a way to finish in the TOP 12 some year first, then I suppose they could have an outside chance of doing so. Don't these level Corps have difficulty retaining talented and experienced marchers ? Thats the biggest challenge to placement improvement many of these lower tier Corps have, imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theCHEZman Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 The predictions are fun but even after seeing a clip of Crown and Cadets, it's so hard to view a show at this early stage and get much out of it and I don't count stand stills because everyone sounds powerful and clear not moving. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, it is just kinda fun to do. :) I have a feeling after Minneapolis this will not even look the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats so true.. its just a fun thing to do, as its really hard to gauge things in the preseason and at this juncture. I also gave up long ago trying to figure out what placements judges will have in mind on these things. But its cool to guess and predict. What else we got to do on here ? haha Edited June 12, 2013 by BRASSO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
