West Texas bands headed back to state competitions

TLCA San Angelo and Irion County High School's marching bands have each qualified for the UIL State Competition for the second consecutive year.

MERTZON, Texas — TLCA San Angelo's Landon Sproul has learned under his band director, Kevin Dukes, since he was in eighth grade. Dukes said Sproul was talkative early on. He's since become a leader in the program.

In Mertzon, the Irion County Hornet Band wore Halloween costumes during one of the final practices before next week's state competition. The 2019 champions hope to continue a winning tradition in San Antonio.
