Smoky Mountain High School color guard member Emily Stearns, above, and percussionist Ryan Neff, below, concentrate during Saturday's Tournament of Champions band competition at Western Carolina University. Directed by Don Miller and Bob Reid, the SMHS Marching Mustangs performed this year's show, Estas Noches Caliente, which features swing and Latin jazz music. This year's drum major is Braxton Midyette, and the drum line, below, is led by Caleb Brower and Emily Coggins. Katy Dodd is color guard captain. The band's performance Saturday was its "best showing ever" at the WCU event, Reid said.
