Update: Brazoswood has withdrawn from the competition due to inclement weather in Houston.

This regional has typically been won by an outsider. For the past four years, groups from San Antonio and Austin have traveled all the way south to McAllen and walked away with the gold medal. But this year's lineup looks like we could have our champion, and perhaps even all three medalists from cities south of San Antonio. Brazoswood, John B. Alexander, San Benito, and United are a few of the groups that could walk away with a title.

Beyond medalists, Del Rio, Hidalgo, Pioneer, and Roma will be in the running for finalist spots along with former national finalist Winston Churchill. Despite some significant staff changes at Churchill heading into the season, we still expect them to be competitive here in McAllen.
