- The DeWitt High School Marching Band took first place at MCBA state finals on Nov. 4
- This is the second time that the band has placed first at the state competition
The Dewitt Marching Band are state champions once again.
I was in Detroit this weekend to see how it went.
After competing with 10 other bands for the 1st place title at Ford Field, DeWitt heard the announcer's voice during awards...
"And now fans, presenting your 2023 MCBA flight 3 state champions, receiving the gold medal with a score of 85.05, the Dewitt High School Marching Band!"
The stadium erupted with applause and cheer as the band held the trophy claiming first place.
In addition to first place, the band was also awarded 4 out of 5 captions including best music, general effect, visual, and percussion.
This is the second time that Dewitt marching band has claimed a first place victory in flight 3 competition.
After winning it all in 2021, the band got second place last year... and was excited to see that the countless hours of practice and dedication to the show paid off this year.
The band will compete in the 2024 season, but details of the show are still in the works.
