1. With a Bluecoats outright win, DCI will have three unique champions in three successive years for the first time in 24 years (81-83, 86-88, 87-89, 91-93, 92-94, 93-95). The longest such stretches in DCI history were four years - 86-89 (Devils, Cadets, Scouts, SCV) and 91-94 (Star, Cavaliers, Cadets, Devils).

2. With a Bluecoats win or tie, they would join an elite group of corps with more than one DCI title (Blue Devils, Cadets, Vanguard, Cavaliers, Scouts, Phantom).

3. With a Blue Devils win or tie, they would break their own record with 19 DCI Championships (76-77, 79-80, 82, 86, 94, 96-97, 99, 03, 07, 09-10, 12, 14-15, 17).

4. If Blue Devils finishes first or second, they will have placed gold or silver in 13 straight DCI championships. If they place third, they will have medaled in 14 straight years. In any of these cases, they will have finished fifth or higher in 45 consecutive years.

5. With a first place caption award in percussion, Santa Clara Vanguard would tie the record-holding BD 83-86 drum lines with four consecutive Sanford awards.

6. If the corps currently rated 1-12 make finals, it will be the first time since 2015 that there is not a corps in finals that had not been in finals the previous year. Of the corps currently in 1-12, eleven have been in finals each year since 2014. The twelfth corps was Madison (14-15,) Academy (16), Madison (17), Mandarins (18).

 

One note: the sets 88-90, 89-91, and 90-92 are also unique, since Cadets only won in 90.

Should Phantom place 12th, they will join Madison as the only corps to have placed 1 thru 12 in DCI finals.

Here is another one to keep an eye on............

If SCV holds on to third, they will be the first corps dating back to 2009 to beat BD, than medal the following season. PR 2009, Cadets 2012, Crown 2014, and Bloo 2017 all failed to medal after beating BD the previous season.
