Because the lots are insane. That wouldn’t explain why they aren’t owning content, though — the battery alone, my goodness. Is it the pit? (This is why I wish we had a separate pit judge!!) If I recall, in a recent season they did have two percussion judges. One was a field judge and the other ensemble. The intent was to get a better read on the front ensembles. I guess now that they restrict the field judge and keep them off the field, they felt they didn’t need the second one. IDK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First ever time in this position HAS to be playing with at least a few moods and attitudes I don’t think so, they have performed very well from what I’ve seen. Still, when a corps climbs into the rarified air of medal territory, and especially contention for the gold, it is almost a rite of passage to fall short before climbing that last step up the podium. I think they are a definite contender for next year, have set themselves up with a very strong showing, and now have the experience to make that last rung on the ladder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
