The Roslyn High School Marching Bulldogs took first place in the USBands New York Regional Championships—held Sunday, Oct. 23 at Lindenhurst High School. They received a top score of 90.9 in their group—the highest score of the day!
“Each year our marching band program grows under the phenomenal leadership of music teacher Frank Mauriello and his dedicated team,” said Assistant Principal Dave Lazarus. “Through countless hours of rehearsal and commitment to one another and the program, they have risen to the top of their class.”
The last weekend of competition will take place Sunday, Oct. 30 at the JMA Wireless Dome at Syracuse University, where the Marching Bulldogs will compete against over 50 schools.
“The Roslyn community is the epitome of the statement, ‘it takes a village.’ We contribute the success of this season not only to our talented students, but to the parents, high school administration, central administration and the Roslyn Board of Education,” said Mr. Mauriello. “Without everyone’s support of the program, this truly would not be possible. The students, staff and I are looking forward to working hard in the final week of the season as we head to Syracuse for field band finals.”
“We are incredibly proud of our talented student musicians and wish them the best of luck this Sunday at the New York State Field Band Championships,” said Superintendent Allison Brown. “Their show is amazing and we know they will do us proud!”
