It would be one thing if BAC had a trend that indicated as such, but having just 1 show where they come 1st in guard all season, and that too back in early July seems like an outlier to me. Especially when their win on semis night is sandwiched between 2 losses. Technically it is an outlier, but if the roles were switched, you would be the first to say, you gotta bring it when it counts most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't the NFL where you fire a coach for going 9-7. You want to get rid of a 30 year old (+/- a year or two) caption head for giving you a top 6 color guard in DCI two years in a row? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Just now, Sideways said: huh???...2015 was the last time BD won the Zingali. I thought Boston won Color Guard. Blue Devil's color guard has won high CG more times than their legendary horn line has won high brass. If I misunderstood, thanks in advance for the correction.

N.E. Brigand Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Kevin mentioned that he'll be reporting from DCA's championships over Labor Day weekend. FYI, those shows will be streamed, but not on Flo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many variables to be considered an outlier. posted from the DrumScorps app I agree there are different variables at play but I don't agree with your conclusion.

Especially when their win on semis night is sandwiched between 2 losses. Fair point. That semis judge really set BD back putting them 4th whether or not they had a rough night, while BAC teetered at 1st and 2nd. Interesting recaps for championships but regardless, I’m happy for that drum corps. Very exciting for them as they grow into future champions. posted from the DrumScorps app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedj2002 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I was a DM in HS and College and based my comment on what I see on the podium, not to offend the unity or perseverance that the Cadets are working through. I generally pick the best conductor who wins this award. Congrats to her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
