We have never had a band from New Mexico win a BOA regional title. Perhaps this will be the year that changes.
Also do not see some of the El Paso area bands that were past BOA competitors like Coronado, JM Hanks and Americus.

As I suspected, there are likely quite a few El Paso bands who signed up late so are not on the lists yet. So I'll drop this here:
Very Likely:
Eastlake H.S., TX (AAA)
(band calendar)

Can you help clarify that for my dumb brain? Looks like the second break was already 45 minutes per the 8/18 schedule. The last performance time in the middle block was 1:45. The break was scheduled to start following that performance ("2:00"). The next band is at 2:30. That's considered a 30 minute break. Per jeremiah , the schedule has been adjusted to reflect that the last performance in the middle block is at 1:30. Early blocks now read: 10:15 - Eastlake H.S., TX 10:30 - Bel Air H.S., TX 10:45 - Cibola H.S., NM 11:00 - Del Valle H.S., TX 11:15 - Volcano Vista H.S., NM BREAK 12:15 - Andrews H.S., TX 12:30 - Centennial H.S., NM 12:45 - Eldorado H.S., NM 1:00 - La Cueva H.S., NM 1:15 - Las Cruces H.S., NM 1:30 - Cienega H.S., NM

Very excited to see Eastlake and Bel Air going. I was hoping for more of the great El Paso bands to get more involved in BOA.

Kinda hoping to see J.M. Hanks H.S. they usually compete in NM for the TOB Competition and they have won for the last three years in a row. For sure to place well at this Regional.

Are you thinking of a different competition? According to the Zia Fiesta website, Clovis HS has won each year since 2013. J.M Hanks last attended (or at least last made finals) in 2004, where they placed 9th. To your point, though, it'd be cool to see Hanks attend this regional. Anyone know when their last BOA show was?

Sorry ur right I meant Tournament of Bands at NMSU. I think the last time was 2014 St. George Regional (3rd place)

Not familiar with enough of these bands to make a full prediction ranking, but I do know Clovis, Grapevine, La Cueva and Organ Mountain are definitely locks for finals, possibly all in the top half.

Yes to all of this. Pebble Hills and Bel Air are also locks and likely round out the top half of finals. Clovis probably wins this somewhat easily unless Grapevine takes a big step forward this year

I think the championship is a 3-horse race between Pebble Hills, Clovis, and Organ Mountain (formally Oñate). I'm leaning Clovis right now, but OM was very competitive with them last year too. Grapevine, Bel Air, and Eastlake I'd say will be the groups to round out the top half of finals, but groups like Centennial, Las Cruces, and La Cueva could easily be in that mix too. Very fun looking regional, hard to predict what will happen cause of how many of these bands aren't regulars at BOA.

Eldorado should also be a dark horse. If not top half, most certainly a lock for finals.

Organ Mountain (formally Oñate). Spanish conquistador out, nearby set of peaks in. Reduces the list of new-to-BOA bands by one from what I was previously counting.
