Way to go marching band
To the editor:
I would like to thank the Marshall Tigers marching band for their performance this year. There wasn’t any coverage for them, and I don’t understand why, but the adults and students put in a lot of time and effort and it has surely paid off. It wasn’t reported, but a few weeks ago they took first place overall in Sioux Falls, S.D., and then took third place overall at the dome (that is the only write-up I have seen this year.) Great job and you should be very proud.

Editor’s Note: The Independent published a lengthy story on Page 6A on Oct. 12 about the band’s trip to Minneapolis and extensively covered this year’s Pursuit of Excellence competition in Marshall.
