Leander H.S., TX (AAA)


The Leander Band is a former Grand National finalist, a former super regional finalist, and a consistent regional finalist.

In 2017, Leander is expected to compete at the Austin Regional, Conroe Regional, and San Antonio Super Regional.

Leander competed at the Austin Regional, earning second place in prelims before slipping to fourth in finals.

The band will compete in Houston and San Antonio later this year and, if this first competition is any indication, they will likely continue their streak of finals appearances at both events.

Leander competed at the Austin Regional, San Antonio Super Regional, and Grand National Championships.

At Austin, Leander was neck-and-neck with Vandegrift, placing first in prelims and second in finals. The group stayed ahead of former super regional champion Claudia Taylor Johnson in both rounds.

At San Antonio, Leander placed third in finals, the highest-placing band that went on to compete at Grand Nats. This strong finish opened the conversation for a possible grand national champion title.

At Grand Nats, the group wasn't able to make a run for a medal, but did stay in the top half of finals. Their sixth place finish made them the second-highest placing Texas band this season.



2015

Leander competed at the Austin Regional and San Antonio Super Regional.

Their season was off to a great start after a narrow early-season victory at Austin. Leander beat second-place Cedar Park by 0.05 points and was unable to grab a single caption.

Following that incredible performance, we were excited to see how Leander would fare at San Antonio against all of the top Texas groups. Unfortunately, because of weather-related issues, Leander was unable to perform in the prelims competition at San Antonio, and was therefore unable to advance to finals. We'll have to wait another year to find out how Leander will do at San Antonio.
