What to Watch For in Foxboro

  • If you were told a West Coast corps would be the first to break 80, you wouldn’t be faulted for thinking it would be the perennial heavyweight Blue Devils. But instead, it was Santa Clara Vanguard who reached the mark first, last night in Olathe, Kansas. Vanguard is continuing its Midwest tour tonight, but three other corps--Blue Devils, the Cadets, and Carolina Crown--could all reach that mark tonight in Foxboro. All three have already come within a point of breaking 80.
  • This is also the first time this season the Blue Devils will compete against corps from the East Coast. The California corps wrapped up its West Coast tour on Sunday and spent the first half of the week travelling across the country to Massachusetts. Fans should watch to see how the Blue Devils’ score stacks up against the current top corps in the east, the Cadets, in these two corps' first matchup of the year.
  • Three other corps also continue their tours Thursday evening in Foxboro. The Boston Crusaders, Crossmen and Troopers have all shuffled positions over the past two weeks. Boston may be the favorite to top the other two on the corps' home turf in Foxboro, but how those three finish tonight is anyone’s guess.
  • Three more corps kick off their 2015 seasons tonight, and several are celebrating anniversary seasons. Jersey Surf turns 25 this year with its show, “SunSurfing,” while the Spartans celebrate 60 years with “At the Gates.” Meanwhile, 7th Regiment will debut its 2015 program, “The Labyrinth.”
