Marching Eagles
Trophy Case
1975-2007
Trophy
Case may perhaps be a bit misleading as a title for this section. What it
really represents is all the competitions the Marching Eagles have entered and
the results they achieved [for those instances in which they placed outside of
the Top 3 bands or earned a particular rank in a category but received no trophy
[i.e. 1st place Music or 1st place General Effect when no
trophies were awarded]. Obviously, any final ranking outside the Top 3 bands
would not have earned a trophy. Results are listed by school year with
known spring competition results listed separately from the fall competition
results.
