As she stands in front of the saxophone section, sophomore Amelia Heidt throws her rifle into the air. The colorguard often stands in between the percussionists and the rest of the band during their performances.
Every year the Spartan Regiment ends their season with a final competition. This year the competition took place at The Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, consisting of around 70 schools. Senior Toby Kelly found the competition to be a fulfilling way to end the season.
“Our last competition, especially for your senior year, hits really hard, especially when it’s at the dome, because there’s so many people there watching,” Kelly said. “And it’s like your one last time to leave it all out on the field and leave your mark in a way.”
Francis Howell Central placed 33rd in the competition, and now the spartan marching band prepares for the winter season.
