Yes! So glad Nafo is going! They are still tentative on their calendar on their website. They are sitting at about 80+ winds this year it looks like. Glad they’re in the mix here representing the town of Fort Mill.

I could perhaps see Nafo falling back into the bottom 5 and Mill Creek in the top 5, but could easily go your way too. Although my prediction is that DB will beat Wando at almost every situation this year, but I am clearly in the minority in that opinion! LOL glad we all can have our opinions.

Well they were AA 3rd place in 2012 at GN, then 2013 didn’t participate and 2014 never made finals. So 2014 is when they switched to AAA.

Harrison H.S., GA 3. Nation Ford H.S., SC CLASS AAAA 1. Wando H.S., SC 2. James F. Byrnes H.S., SC 3. Mill Creek H.S., GA Personally I would place the bottom two schools higher than the last two places. Booneville H.S. has won their 3A division 9 out of 10 times from 2010-2019, and Saltillo H.S. are usually in the lower tier of the 5A Division each year never beating both bands. South Jones has always placed top 3 in their history in MS States. 2017 is the only expectation however still was able to Saltillo H.S.. South Jones is a great band they placed 1st place in 3 out 5 competitions in 2020 v-UsBands beating Walled Lake Central, Normal, and Milton (WI). They also achieved 2nd and 4th for the last competitions. In 2019, South Jones H.S. won their MS State Championships division 5A and was 2nd overall behind Hernando (Grand Champ) by less than 1 point. Booneville H.S. another winner of their 3A division and was 3rd overall just by 1.25 points behind Hernando. However, Saltillo H.S. placed 4th in their 5A Division Finals, but 22nd overall. 2019: 92.250: 6A :Hernando High School 91.400: 5A :South Jones High School (2nd) 91.000: 3A :Booneville High School (3rd)90.300: 6A :DeSoto Central High School 89.725: 5A :Ridgeland High School 88.825: 5A :Center Hill High School 88.800: 6A :Southaven High School 88.700: 6A :Petal High School 87.950: 4A :Stone High School (skip) 85.125: 5A :Saltillo High School (22nd)

But I would like to point out that Hernando, South Jones, and Boonville received those scores at three separate competitions with three different judging panels. The 6A competition was held at Northwest Rankin H.S., 5A at Pearl H.S., and 3A at Germantown H.S.

I guess it's all up to the judges and the kids.

Are Kell and Hillgrove operating as separate marching bands outside of competition? So many other bands have combined without incident, I wonder what the case was with KellGrove.

Reveal video from earlier this year announced both of them going to Hawaii for their band trip. Kell and Hillgrove thought it would be a fun thing to go ahead and combine the bands for a year in celebration of the trip. I wouldn't be surprised the pandemic played a part in both of their decisions, but that's the public reason.

I wouldn't be surprised the pandemic played a part in both of their decisions, but that's the public reason. I wonder if they even planned on BOA at all, focusing solely on their Hawaii trip. But that Hawaii trip has since been canceled due to COVID, so now I'm curious if they'll have ANY special trip to commemorate this season. :/

I’m also not sure if all the Walled Lake or Forest Hill schools are in the same city either.

Predictions now that we're getting closer to the date! As mentioned above, I do think the bottom bands could definitely shift around. It's tough to predict with so many new BOA bands in the mix! Hostrauser has South Jones in A, I have them in AA, as they are borderline. Time will tell!

Clinton has been dropped from the schedule. That slides Lambert, Mill Creek, and Chattahoochee 15 minutes later and extends the 2 p.m. break to 45 minutes.
Also Cabot and Collins Hill have dropped from the first block, so the start time is now 9:30.
