Congratulations to The Pride of Portola for achieving the prestigious Sweepstakes award (top band overall) at the Irvine Invitational Field Tournament!

Competing against schools from across Orange and Los Angeles Counties, the band showed exceptional skill. A special shout-out goes to the Color Guard for earning first place and to our incredibly talented Percussion/Drumline for securing a strong second place finish among all performing groups.
