This was the stiffest competition Tarpon faced since Broken Arrow attended in 2013. Despite losing the music caption to Dobyns-Bennett and visual caption to Wando, Tarpon still won overall by more than a point. It's clear that Tarpon still has the skills to make finals, but the national champion title will be harder to seize.
At Grand Nats, Tarpon won its day in prelims, earning first place from all but one judge. In semifinals, the group tied William Mason and national champion Carmel. In finals, Tarpon fell behind Carmel and Mason, finishing fourth overall.

After winning the national championship in 2014, it's not a surprise that no one in the lineup for Atlanta was even able to get close to Tarpon. LD Bell was almost four full points behind and Harrison almost five.
As we look to 2016, expect to see Tarpon return to Atlanta and Grand Nats, hoping to bring the eagle back to Florida once again. Some people speculate if Tarpon had attended Grand Nats this year, they could have kept the eagle.
2014
Tarpon Springs competed at the Atlanta Super Regional and Grand National Championships. Tarpon won the Atlanta regional yet again, which wasn't really a surprise. What was surprising was the huge (almost 5 point) gap between first place Tarpon and second place Mason. Their dramatic success at Atlanta forced their name into the conversation for the eagle. Three weeks later at Grand Nats, they proved that a 100-member hornline can compete against and beat groups almost twice that size.2013
