This marching season has been one of the most successful in the history of the Indian Land High School Warrior Band. Their 2025 production, “Strings of Fate,” was inspired by the legend of a red string that connects us to those we are destined to meet. The show was originally designed to feature a harp soloist, but after the performer transferred schools over the summer, the band’s new directors, Shelly Strauss and Joshua Roper, completely redesigned much of the program—both musically and visually.

Despite the challenges, the Warrior Band achieved unprecedented success. This year, they made Indian Land High School and Lancaster County School District history by performing for the first time ever at a Bands of America Regional Competition, where they ranked 7th in Music and 14th overall out of 28 bands. The group also placed 4th overall at the Rock Hill Olde English Festival of Bands out of 32 competitors. Their hard work culminated in earning a superior rating and a coveted spot in the South Carolina Band Directors Association 5A State Finals, held on Saturday, October 25th.

At state, the band placed 5th in Music during prelims and 6th in Visual Performance during finals—a remarkable accomplishment for the growing program.

Judges at the state finals offered glowing reviews:

“Of all the times I’ve seen you this year, I am convinced this is the best ever. You really saved it all for tonight, and I’m so glad I got to witness it.” — Tim Pierce, State Finals Judge (also judged at Bands Of America Coastal).
“I really enjoyed the program—such a cool concept. Some moments of great artistry, especially the interplay between the guitar and flute, were especially compelling. Congratulations on your state finalist status. Big fan. Big respect.” — SC State Head Judge Nola Jones

Directors Ms. Strauss and Mr. Roper extended their deepest gratitude to the Indian Land community for its unwavering support.
“Thank you to our superintendent Dr. Fitzpatrick and the LCSD School Board for recognizing our incredibly dedicated students and staff. Special thanks to Mr. Matthew Willis, LCSD Fine Arts Specialist, and Mr. Rick Parker, Principal of Indian Land High School, along with his administrative team, for their continued encouragement,” they said.

Finally, the directors wish to recognize the Warrior Band parents and families who work tirelessly—building props, loading and moving equipment, preparing meals, and chaperoning countless events.

“We cannot thank you enough,” they added. “This has truly been an incredibly special year.”
