There are too many good AND enjoy programs being learned right now to make a prediction on where they'll place in the end. I surmise that the further the COVID years recede into the distance, the more groups seem to be finding their footing again with membership maturing and logistics solidifying. Very hopeful for a competitive and entertaining season and I'm thrilled to be making my first trip to Allentown since 2015. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was continually predicting that 2023 will look to be a step up for many corps compared to 2022 and that is shaping up to be the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContraFart Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 1.) There will be 6 or 7 corps competing for 12th. Music City and Spirit will be in the hunt, BK and Crossmen will most definitely be pushing to get back in. Troopers and Colts will not go quiet into Semi Finals and Madison would like a word as well. 2.) Either Blue Stars or Mandarins will make their first top 5 appearance. 3.) Most corps over 90 at finals ever. Maybe even all top 12 corps will score over 90. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Regiment and Cavaliers have a better chance of making top 5 than the Mandarins. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can look at their history to see this. Also, this is our 75th Anniversary. They're bringing it!

Blue Stars have been in the top five three times in their history, but I know what you mean, modern times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
