We're 3 days in and, by now, a good portion of the groups expecting to compete this season have a show or two under their belt. Let's take a look at how things have panned out since day 1 Sunday.

Band Geeks, Perception Drum & Bugle Corps, and Sapphire Sound all retained their spots a top Division I. Blue Deviled Eggs and Madison County Cadets traded places, but remained in the Top 5. These 5 all seem to have a bit of a gap between them and the rest of Division I, but time will tell if they can all hold on to their positions.

The Pride of the Texas Hill Country currently sit on top of Division II, as they did at the end of Sunday night. Knights Vanguard also held onto their position, remaining in 2nd. Taking over the Bronze Medal Spot, Star of CA who moved up from 4th. Vagabond dropped slightly, moving to 4th from 3rd place Sunday night. Spartan Regiment dropped down to 9th, and Challengers jumped into the Top 5 for Division II.

Performing for the first time this season, Rhapsody took the reigns at the top of Division III tonight and have nearly a point between them and 2nd place. Speaking of which, Maroon Dawgs moved down one spot to 2nd after holding the top spot. Also jumping into the Top 3 after making their first appearance on the circuit this season, Glassmen currently sit in 3rd for Division III. Black Gold and Red Regiment both retained positions in the Top 5, but moved down one spot each to 4th and 5th respectively.

After 3 days, Corps seem to already be getting comfortable in their current positions. But, as early in the season as it is, there's no telling how things will end. That's the beauty of drum corps.
