Marching Knights Triumphant at Plymouth






Norwell’s Marching Knights capped off another successful weekend with top honors in Class C at the Plymouth Invitational Saturday.

Norwell headed off the challenges of Northwood and Maconaquah to take first place in Class C. Twin Lakes, Northwestern, John Glenn and Knox rounded out the field.

Norwell also won the caption awards for Best Percussion, Best Music, Best Visual Effects and Best General Effects. Caption awards for Best Field Crew went to Northwood, Best Color Guard to Northwestern, and Best Drum Major to John Glenn.

This weekend sees the Marching Knights return to state qualifying competition, in pursuit of an 11th consecutive appearance at the state finals. They will be contesting the Class C Regional Championships in Chesterton, with a gold ranking required to enable them to proceed to the semi-state championships at Plainfield High School on Oct. 24.

Norwell is scheduled to compete at Chesterton at 1:23 p.m.

Bluffton will also be contesting Regional Championships this weekend, travelling to Lafayette Jefferson for the Class D competition. The Bengal Brigade is scheduled to perform at 11 a.m.

(Results from Bluffton's Saturday performances at Homestead and Snider hadn't yet been received at the time of posting. I will be away Monday but will post them Tuesday - assuming they arrive).
