On an aside, I'm really happy MOC Floyd-Valley has had a successful first BOA outing. I'll get to see them in person next week at Festival of Bands. I wish they were doing the parade competition so I could see them in their wooden clogs.

Is this the first regional win by a band from South Dakota?

Is this the first regional win by a band from South Dakota? Yes! Previous best placement by a South Dakota band was a 2nd place from Lincoln at the 1985 Whitewater regional where they were 10 pointed by Marian Catholic.

I'm gonna make a spicy little prediction. My reason for Lincoln being first is simply because I adore their 2017 show (yes I know that has absolutely no merit to their strength this year lol). I also just love an upset. 1. Lincoln SD (GE, visual tie) 2. Lincoln-Way (Music, Visual tie) 3. Bellevue West 4. Independence 5. Bellevue East 6. Davenport Central 7. Blue Valley Southwest 8. Grand Rapids 9. Millard South 10. MOC-Floyd Valley 11. Northwest 12. Dowling Catholic 13. Omaha Burke 14. Rock Island 15. Blaine OH MY GOD I WAS RIGHT. LINCOLN WITH THE UPSET

This just goes to show that predictions made by someone who has absolutely no idea what they are talking about can actually come true sometimes

WOW!! Big congratulations to Lincoln HS SD. This is not only their first BOA regional title, it is the first for a South Dakota band.
I do believe that Blue Valley Southwest placed higher than a Kansas band has ever placed at a BOA regional (I doubt a Kansas band was at a regional prior to 85).
Also shout out to Davenport Central, IA for a good showing. This band has been a frequent Grand National participant for many years.

Very curious about MOC-Floyd Valley, but YouTube is definitely letting me down. No video less than 3 years old, and they definitely didn't have 125 on the field then... something interesting is afoot.

No video less than 3 years old, and they definitely didn't have 125 on the field then... something interesting is afoot. MOC-Floyd Valley has been a very strong band for many years, with the exception of one or two seasons. But being in NW Iowa and rarely traveling, it can sometimes be hard to get a bead on them. Except for those couple of years just before the pandemic, they usually march 100-125 (out of a school of about 450 in 9-12). I thought they would give Independence a run for their money in Class A. I think Grand Rapids, MN wins the 2022 title for northernmost band competing in BOA. They are in northern Minnesota, closer to Canada than Minneapolis.
