The winter color guard also took first place in the weekend's competition, Wilmer said.

"The winter guard's show is called Diablo Rojo," she said. "Both groups placed first in their class, but the guard had stiffer competition. The guard scored 12 points ahead of their nearest rival. That is amazing considering some competitions are determined by hundredths of a point."
