“I am very proud of our students for their performance on Saturday night. They played with emotion and it was by far the best performance of the year,” said Wando Band Director Scott Rush. “This represents the fifth consecutive year that the program has finished as state champions in 5A. The 5A classification makes up the largest sixteen schools in the state of South Carolina.”
The previous weekend the Wando Band competed at Super Regionals in Atlanta in the Georgia Dome. They won their division and finished fourth overall. The Wando High School Marching Band will compete with nearly 90 other bands in the Bands of America Grand National Championships Nov. 12-14. Wando is scheduled to perform in preliminary competition at 10:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12 at Lucas Oil Stadium, Indianapolis.
