The Friendswood High School Varsity Guard placed 1st in Open Class at the Winter Guard International (WGI) Houston Power Regional on March 22. They were the top high school color guard at the contest.  Color guards from all over Texas and Louisiana competed at this event.

           Friendswood has placed 1st in all but one contest this season. The Varsity Guard is also the top seeded Color Guard for this weekend’s Texas Color Guard Circuit State Championship in San Marcos at Texas State University. They will be attempting to claim the Open Class title to complete back to back TCGC State titles after placing 1st in A Class at last year’s state championship. 
           The Varsity team had been promoted to Open Class by WGI at the National competition last year in Dayton, OH, after making finals in A Class.  This is a great honor for the girls, and a tribute to their hard work and dedication to the sport.
           Many thanks to the staff and parents at Friendswood High school.  We have come a long way in recent years, and couldn’t have done it without your support.
