The question: Where will this regional be held? There is now a football game vs. Purdue on this date here. Is Delaware's stadium open for the date? It's a way better venue anyway.

CONFIRMED: Green Level H.S., NC (band calendar) I always like to see new bands going places the haven't gone. I'm not too familiar with this group...have they been doing BOA? They opened in 2019 and is the newest addition to the Wake County School District (Green Hope, Panther Creek, Cary). I can't remember which chunk of students from the latter three schools was transferred to Green Level, but they should be a very strong program right off the bat given the talent pool of the district. They were planning on doing some BOA in 2020 and took the year off in 2021, I imagine to rebuild. In fact I don't think any of the Wake County schools did BOA last season...

They're the newest school in the Cary school district that has Green Hope, Panther Creek, and Cary. They opened in 2019 and although they haven't done BOA yet, they beat Green Hope, Panther Creek, and Cary multiple times in 2021. I think they should make finals pretty easily here

Could make finals in any of these two regionals. I would probably challenge this. This is still a brand new circuit and I really don't think the depth of NJ bands is not enough to really warrant them being a lock, at any regional. With that said NJ now having their own state circuit is certainly a step in the right direction.

I was only stating that BRHS had a great year in 2021 beating much of the bigger bands, and could build up a great program for 2022 just like JPS or Westfield or Elizabeth. Lastly, I did write "Could" meaning it's no definite.

One of NJ greatest band with highest amount of Regional finals, and highest score in GN Semis, and only NJ band to win a BOA Regional Prelims. Every band goes into their highs and lows. But they are slowly growing in numbers and growing in power. Even in 2018 they placed 3rd place overall in music in BOA and by the end of the 2019 season BRHS beating JPS in NJ Regional Prelims and only 0.2 away from JPS finals. I believe they could get back to where they were in the past.

To be fair though, the judging by one particular judge was not even close to being in line with the other judges so this greatly benefited JPS. Not saying anything poor about the ensemble but the judging was poor.
