The John Champe High School Marching Knights won their competition at Harrisonburg High School on Saturday, October 14th, taking home a first place trophy. The competition, SVMI, had both a preliminary round and a final round all in the same day. During the preliminary round, the Knights won first place, along with other honors such as best visual, best music, best general effect and best color guard. During the finals, the Knights won first place along with best music and best visual.

This is the first time in over four years that our marching band has taken a first place trophy home. The entire John Champe High School community is ecstatic for our Marching Knights!
