i feel like the best band caption could go to urby, prairie, or linnmar because each of the bands are stellar. prairies band doesnt do well in gyms for some reason so itll probably be between urby and linnmar (im hoping linnmar because they ar GOOD!)


I think linn mars band will win because they do some many different types of songs and they do it amazingly

But that is the beauty about predictions- they are bound to be wrong So take what I have to prediction with a grain of salt.

Mmm. Yeah, I see that with Urbandale... Which people hate me for :/ don't get me wrong, I love Urby, but...

You know?

What about Linn Mar?


Based off of what I have seen, and heard, I just don't see them in the top 3.

I think the top 3 Urbandale, Prairie and IC west are all going to be extremely close


What about Linn Mar?

Also (since I can't edit right now), I am going to say CR Wash takes best band.

I can't wait to see IC West and Prairie, and i'll be honest I REALLY want IC West to win...

I think the top 3 Urbandale, Prairie and IC west are all going to be extremely close

and the bottom 3 Washington, Xavier and Linn Mar are going to be close extremely close.

Hmmm... I'm really excited to see this one.

GC: Linn Mar/IC West
1RU: IC West/Linn Mar
2RU: Prairie
3RU: Urbandale
4RU: CR Washington
5RU: CR Xavier

I really loved watching Wash at Benton-that was some tight competition! Captions are going to be tough here, but I think:

BV: IC West
BC: Anyone really
BB: Linn Mar

Derrrrrp...

I've never been here but I hear there are other captions?

1st: Linn-Mar
2nd: IC West
3rd: CR Wash
4th: Urbandale
5th: Prairie
6th: Xavier

At Benton last night, Xuberance beat Celebration, and from what I heard, almost beat Showtime. Also, Xub. beat ignition, who beat Focal point at Waukee. I think it's gonna be a battle in the top six prep.


Prep division at Benton was very close from 2-4. Xubes was 1 ranking point ahead of Cele and Showtime was 2 ranking points ahead of Xuberance. I'm not sure what the division would've looked like had they kept it points, but I do know one judge had much different rankings than the other 3 and that did effect the results. Everyone is going to have to bring it at this competition because it is so deep!

I keep getting more and more excited for this competition every week! It's gonna be a real fight to come out on top with all 6 of the varsity groups having a grand championship under their belt after this weekend. Even the prep division will be a hard fought battle! I can't wait!

Linn-Mar won at Monona Grove so that makes 6 out of 6 varsity groups that have a GC. Now the question is, who is the best? ;)

Prediction:
GC: Prairie (BC)
1RU: City West (BV)
2RU: LM (BB)
3RU: Urbandale
4RU: Washington
5RU: Xavier

It will be reay close and I am very excited to come see this competition! Really any of the 6 could take it!

Predictions:
GC: Urbandale (BV, BB)
1RU: Prairie
2RU: Linn Mar (BC)
3RU: ICW
4RU: Wash
5RU: Xavier

Could go a number of ways, Prairie could sneak a BV and I could see a ICW best choreo happen.
Any of the top four could take it. Not so sure about Washington or Xavier.

Predictions:
GC: Urbandale
1RU: Prairie
2RU: Iowa City West
3RU: Washington
4RU: Xavier
5RU: Linn Mar

Prairie and Iowa City West could also take on Urbandale for GC because they're having a pretty solid season so far. Washington could also jump up in placements, and so could Xavier. CRAZY!!! Buttttt I guess we will just have to wait and see!
