Marching band second at state finals

The Lake Orion High School Marching Band capped their best-ever season with a second place finish at the Michigan Competing Band Association finals, held Saturday at Ford Field.
Lake Orion easily set a new school record score, eclipsing 89 points from the Flight I judges.
Plymouth-Canton continued their long streak as the state’s top band, topping the 91 point plateau. Lake Orion was closer to the Plymouth band than any school in any competition in recent memory.
No other band scored higher than 83 points.
The Dragons won two invitationals earlier in the season and finished third at states a year ago.
