Cavaliers should not have won percussion last year so winning last year set a false standard for this year.

Cavaliers should not have won percussion last year so winning last year set a false standard for this year. Now that's a bold statement. It's true that Cavaliers' percussion won only two of their first seven competitions, placing second to Carolina Crown on June 30 and July 2, second to Boston Crusaders on July 7 and July 8, and second to Bluecoats on July 15, but they went on to place first in all fourteen competitions after that. Their sixteen first place scores came from ten different judges (Brooks (3), Davila (2), Dempsey, Hall (3), Howarth, Kristensen, Leitzke, Rapacki (2), Williams, Wilson), including two (Brooks, Davila) who had ranked them second in the early season. None of that means you're not right and all those judges weren't wrong. Art is subjective.

None of that means you're not right and all those judges weren't wrong. Art is subjective. They played a very meh book well (particularly in the front ensemble), pulled on some nostalgic feelings, and capitalized on some other corps not cleaning better repertoires as well as they should. Maybe it would have been better to say “They may have won, but they weren’t the best percussion”.

Maybe it would have been better to say “They may have won, but they weren’t the best percussion”. “not cleaning better repertoires as well as they should” that’s the whole game these corps are playing, if they can’t do that then can they really be the best percussion?
