CLASS vs. MAoMA Representation-

CLASS dominated the top of the board taking 1st, 3rd, and 5th.

MAoMA's highest scoring corps finished in 6th.

We were thrilled to make it two in a row!

This is pretty neat!

Thanks!

UPDATED records through season 34!

we are sorry we were unable to defend our title as we were at the CLASS Western Showdown but we congratulate Carolina Royals on taking their home show and their title back!

Yeah, unfortunately Alex was hosting his annual FMA Polo Tournament Benefit in Bank of America Stadium the day we would normally host the Calvacade. As it turns out, it's a pretty lucrative yet surprisingly secretive event considering it's a fundraiser for the league. We look forward to returning our show to the third Saturday next season and beyond.

PS- Kudos to our field lining crew for an excellent job patching the field.

Also, we owe the Chiefs a public apology. Since they were the first corps on the field they reluctantly found (marched in) a few areas of horse manure left from the tournament the night before. Our bad!

ewwwwww glad we missed that! lol

Could be worse could be worse.... ok not really.

And darn the one season I could definitely made the history page I ended up at the CLASS show instead. Maybe next season if they insist on keeping me in Div. 2 again.

Congratulations to the Bluecoats on winning the 33rd edition of the Carolina Calvacade! It's great to see them get the win after they were oh-so-close to winning Calvacade XXX (losing by .020)!!!

Lol our high school marchingband is playing Phantom of The Opera hahhahaha its awesome

Congratulations to The Tullahoma Azure Force for winning the 34th Carolina Calvacade!
