• The WGAZ State Championships were at the Arizona
  State Fairgrounds. The colorguard finished 5th in
  Scholastic A, which is a fantastic end to their
  season! Including only three Open Class groups,
  the guard was 8th in the state of Arizona!
  That's a great accomplishment.
• The drumline continued with what we are now
  calling a "dynasty"! They finished in 1st place
  in Open class, which puts them in 1st place
  overall out of all AZ high schools! Amazing job!
  This is now three consecutive state
  championships (two in Open Class)! The drumline
  is not quite done yet, as we have a few weeks to
  prepare for World Championships in Dayton, Ohio.
