OSWEGO, NY – The New York State Field Band Conference season has commenced as the Oswego High School Marching Buccaneers opened the new year last Saturday evening at East Syracuse-Minoa.
Oswego, competing in the National Division, scored a season opening 72 to finish behind West Genesee 79.05, Liverpool 77.25 and Cicero-North Syracuse 73.60.
Band director Scott Ciesla said, “This was a good start for us. The judges appreciated our show and realized what we were attempting in the ‘Autumnal Metamorphosis’ theme.
