Good Job Esperanza..I highly think that they can win div II champs. Impulse has surprised me as well because there show was ok when i saw it. Nothing like their 2001 Show.

Just about EVERYONE goes up during Finals week. Two points is a HUGE gap to make up in just three shows... actually, two, now.

88.75 Blue Stars
86.35 Yamato

Tonight is the Div. 2/3 semifinals. Will Esperanza pull through again? Today is also the Division I quarterfinals. Pacific Crest started the show off today and scored an 80.45. Good luck to all other corps tonight, especially California corps!

Cavies have got 1st all through except to BD.. Why would cadets jump up.. Cavaliers would have to literally Stop playing for 3 beats or something in my opinion ... lol and highschool bands dont do that..

Im overexadurating...

But I am a personal fan of the cavies , even before they started winning, and i think BD will win, cause its their turn ( not that judges will judge that way) but just that they want/need it more.. Gl to alll

and BTW If u think, all the top 2-3 kinda rotate in nce, But this year its realllly tite, so it will be a fun time waiting for those scores!

Yes, it is exciting to watch...I'm staying glued to my computer so that I can post tonight's quarterfinal scores on this thread...the competition is almost over, the Top 5 just need to compete...or maybe they already have, it's hard to tell w/a 56k modem...

Oh, Pacific Crest did edge out Mandarins tonight though, and they'll be competing at semi-finals...way to go PC!

Haha now lets just keep that order all the way through finals with a little lift in the scoring and everything should be just fine!

maybe because they have a good show, maybe because they practice and clean their show like everyone else, maybe because theres about 2pt jump when it comes to championships, and the list can go on

maybe because theyre scoring high in music
quarterfinals total music recap

cadets 29.00

cavaliers 28.90

do you think theyd want to fall down as opposed to jumping up

BD will win, cause its their turn ( not that judges will judge that way) but just that they want/need it more..

their turn

need it

how about they deserve it

and BTW If u think, all the top 2-3 kinda rotate in nce,

referring to champion titles?

Are you using a theasaurus?

Cavies and BD have been working extremely hard. I think that If you break it down, Sometimes show design and what they choose for the show, in the end will win it.. I dont think that the BD have been working harder than the cavies, they both deserve it , Then agin only one can win!

I said

They want/need it more, They have worked harder.. Did u not think I meant that?

I am not againts BD , i like them ( i just like cavies more) and I dont disagree with any judges, But people like you , think you can read my mind, dont tell me what i was trying to say

Yes championship titles.. Dci roatates alot, one corps wont be on top for too long
