While the marching band season has ended for the beloved CHS drum line the season went on a little longer. The drum line competed this past Saturday November 12 at the Lone Star Classic Drumline Competition.
The Lone Star Classic is a competition for drum lines specifically. Over 80 drum lines all over the area come to compete. Coppell competed in the Marching division and performed a modified version of the marching show that the band performed during the 2011 marching season. The band placed 9 out of 15 bands in its division in preliminaries and did not advance to finals.
“We changed up the show a little bit to make it more interesting to watch,” sophomore Mikki Hoffman said. “Even though the marching season was over we were still working because we wanted to do well at Lone Star. The results could have been better, but we did our best and that’s all that matters.”
