After placing second in their first two competitions since the 2018-2019 school year, Color Guard has only ramped up its practice routine. Meeting four days a week, and regularly for eight hours on Sunday, the team continues to work on bettering both themselves and their show. The team is continually preparing for state, hoping to bring home a victory after a year of no competitions.

“The team this year is a little smaller than usual, but just as strong,” Jordan Garrison, senior, said. “We have a lot of newbies and middle schoolers who are learning fast and keeping up. I have high hopes for the team this year.”
