WGI Regional was held at Warren Central HS on Saturday, February 19. Ben Davis Varsity Guard was one of the many units participating in competition; with Ben Davis in the Scholastic A class. For Saturday, 21 units in Scholastic A would be divided into three groups. Ben Davis would perform in the first round and would be the second unit to perform. The top 11 scores would move to finals scheduled for Sunday. Since Ben Davis performed early, they unit returned to the High School to practice before returning to Warren Central to find out if they would be moving forward. Once all units had completed in the three rounds, Ben Davis found they had finished second in their round and sixth overall. This meant they would be returning to Warren Central on Sunday to compete against the other 10 units. Returning to Ben Davis early Sunday morning, the members started their day at 6:00 am to practice before their return to Warren Central for competition. After performing, the members would have to wait until mid-afternoon to find out the results during the awards presentation. This allowed the members to enjoy the other classes as they performed throughout the day. During the awards presentation, Ben Davis was presented with an eighth place finish for their finals performance. Congratulations Varsity for your awesome performances both days.
Next week, both Varsity and Junior Varsity will compete at Greenfield Central HS on Saturday.
Congratulations also go out the Ben Davis Winter Percussion on their first place finish at Indianapolis Percussion Finals on Sunday.
