Ocean Lakes Marching Dolphins placed first in their class at the Tidewater Regional competition last Saturday at the Virginia Beach Sportsplex. As well as their overall win, Marching Band brought home trophies for best color guard, best percussion, best music, best visuals, and best general effect. 

“We are all ecstatic to have a winning streak against our rival Tallwood,” said freshman marcher Grayson Phillips. “Plus to have not placed first in five years and then place first twice in a row is truly amazing for us. I’m so excited to be a part of it for my first year.”
