Troy Athens came in first and Holly in second. The goal for this year’s marching band is to score a 90, and they are well on their way to getting there  They were graded on their marching, music, guard and percussion.

The Band had another shot on the 19th in which they faced at Brandon High School. They did improve, but only to an 89.7, gaining them 3rd place, again.

All in all, they earned themselves an impressive B+, just 3 tenths off of that A-.

This was their last competition this season, which means that they didn’t reach their goal. Although, they had back-to-back 3rd places which is outstanding.

DAVISON (DTV) – (10/11/19) – The Liftathon was held on August 9th and athletes from all over Davison came to attend. The fundraiser was held for the weight room, to get access to new weights and new equipment. Athletes would lift a certain amount of weight and people would donate money for every pound lifted. Local businesses helped sponsor the event, and whoever could lift the most weight would win a prize. After the event, the weight room raised just under $10,000 and used that money to buy new treadmills and buy new weights.

Check out the story DTV’s Isaac Melton did on the Liftathon.
