This win builds on their strong performance from the previous week and sets them up well for the upcoming DCI Southwestern Championship. With other top corps like the Boston Crusaders and Santa Clara Vanguard also in the mix, enthusiasts eagerly anticipate a competitive season leading up to the DCI World Championship.

Houston, Texas – The Bluecoats achieved a remarkable victory at DCI Houston on July 18, securing their win with an impressive score of 91.25. This competition marked an exciting head-to-head matchup against the Blue Devils, who were competing at the same venue for the first time this season.

The success at DCI Houston follows the Bluecoats’ strengthening performance, as they previously broke the 90-point barrier at the Denton event just the week before on July 17. This recent win places the Bluecoats in a strong position heading into the DCI Southwestern Championship, set to take place at the Alamodome in San Antonio on Saturday.

DCI Houston was a highlight in the 2025 DCI tour, which includes additional stops throughout Texas in cities such as Denton, Waco, and Dallas. The weekend’s festivities promise to showcase some of the finest marching bands as corps build up to the championship anticipation.

With public gates opening at 8:00 p.m. ET and coverage commencing at 9:30 p.m. ET, fans are eager to witness these dynamic performances. For those unable to attend, the events are conveniently available for streaming via subscription on the FloMarching platform and the FloSports app.

The competition landscape is heating up, with the Boston Crusaders emerging as an early leader this season, achieving high scores and commendable performances leading into the weekend. Other notable corps in the Texas competition include the Santa Clara Vanguard and Carolina Crown, both of which have also reached scores in the 90s during the Denton event.

Fans attending DCI Houston left eagerly awaiting the results that would greatly influence the rankings ahead of the Southwestern Championship. Recent historical performance data suggests that corps who excel in the San Antonio Regional often carry that momentum into the DCI World Championship. From 2011 to 2023, most champions have consistently maintained high ranks in San Antonio, with only a handful of instances where lower-ranked corps triumphed.

As the 2025 competition unfolds, the atmosphere is poised for an intense showdown, with closely ranked scores among the top six corps indicating a tightly contested championship weekend ahead. The DCI Southwestern Championship is shaping up to be one of the most competitive events in over a decade. This event presents fans with a crucial opportunity to witness the ongoing evolution and refinement of each corps’ performance prior to the DCI World Championship scheduled for August.

As fans prepare for an electrifying weekend, the DCI tour continues its momentum through Texas, setting the stage for the next round of outstanding musical performances.
