Congratulations to the EHS Marching Band for winning Class 1A/2A Grand Champion at the Limestone Rocket Invitational on Saturday. The band edged out Metamora by a razor thin .3 points, and also earned 1A/2A Grand Champion Winds, Percussion, and Auxiliary awards. What's more, the band did all of that with a yet-to-be-finished production. The next time you can see the Marching Hornets will be Friday night at halftime of the Homecoming Game, and in competition on October 13th at the University of Illinois (8:56 a.m.) and Downers Grove South High School (3:45 p.m.). The band is led on the field by Drum Majors Mark Crenshaw and Amanda Wright, who learned that two people cannot physically carry 8 trophies back to the buses.
