Per the MFA site, I added Hendrickson for a total of 26 participants now. I’m pretty sure that’s more than we had last year!

Way-too-early prediction time. I am nobody and my opinions don’t matter. 1. Vandegrift H.S., TX 2. Vista Ridge H.S., TX 3. Rouse H.S., TX 4. Cedar Park H.S., TX 5. Cedar Ridge H.S., TX 6. Round Rock H.S., TX 7. Leander H.S., TX 8. James Bowie H.S., TX 9. Westlake H.S., TX 10. Westwood H.S., TX 11. Hendrickson H.S., TX 12. Lake Travis H.S., TX ————— 13. Louis D. Brandeis H.S., TX 14. Weiss H.S., TX 15. New Braunfels H.S., TX 16. Dripping Springs H.S., TX A — Ann Richards School, TX AA — Liberal Arts and Science Academy, TX AAA — Rouse H.S., TX AAAA — Vandegrift H.S., TX I tried my best. What an always insanely competitive regional! I would really love to see Rouse medal here. I realize keeping a 2021 regional champion out of finals may seem a little strange, but McAllen is no Austin. I still am looking forward to a great showing from Brandeis. I think the final two finals spots could be up in the air considering both Hendrickson and Lake Travis’s typically lower placements here than at other regionals. We could see the likes of Brandeis, Weiss, or even New Braunfels or Dripping Springs scrape their way in.

Even without CTJ this regional is as competitive as ever. Realistically I think LASA might have an outside shot at finals for that 12th spot, they had a very good BOA season last year while admittedly struggling a bit in UIL

I’m trying to remember if Weiss has made finals here yet. They should be close! And yayband914 putting Round Rock up in the top half. Interesting! I like it!

Now that I look at it, I’m not sure about that either… but we will see. This show is always so tough to predict! And I don’t think Weiss has made finals here yet.

If I’m not mistaken Weiss did make finals in 2021?

I'm really curious about Weiss and how they continue to progress with regards to show design. It seems their latest shows have leaned a bit more theatrical as they've grown in size and taken advantage of the dance team with building characters and stories, versus their surprise St. Louis finalist showing with a much more traditional show in their program's second year. Wondering what kind of creativity they have in store for us.

The top five of this regional is pretty solid. And I think Cedar Ridge will be in a great spot to take their first ever Austin medal. How they finished their season last year was incredibly promising and their staff seems to have stabilized after years of constant transition.
Spot number 6 could really go to any number of finalist level bands. Just depends how these bands deal with their director changes—something they all have in common.

Manor New Tech could make some swings for Class A, they've been rapidly improving since they split of from Manor HS. Last year they were one place ahead of Ann Richards at UIL 4A Area D, so I'm thinking it'll actually be a close race.

Other than Vandegrift winning, I don’t know what else to predict here! Which is just one of many reasons this contest is so awesome.
I watched a short Leander drone video and they sound pretty amazing already! Just sayin… 😉
