DCI 2026 Wknd 2: Cali & WI • Academy • Blue Stars • Madison Scouts • Seattle Cascades • Predictions
On the Field
The 2026 DCI season rolls on, and we're starting to get our first real look at the competitive landscape.
Daniel Montoya Jr. and the GErMs recap the latest competitions from Wisconsin & California, break down each corps' opening score and how it compares to last season, and take a look at the current DCI rankings.
Then, we turn our attention to the shows themselves with thoughts and reviews of The Academy, Blue Stars, Carolina Crown, The Cavaliers, Madison Scouts, and Seattle Cascades before making our post-weekend #2 predictions for the 2026 season.
Which corps made the biggest first impression? What do the early scores actually tell us? And who are you watching as the season heats up?
Whether you're keeping up with scores, following your favorite corps, or looking for informed analysis of the season as it unfolds, On the Field is your weekly home for DCI news, results, reviews, and reactions.
From opening weekend to Finals Night, we'll keep you up to date with everything happening on the field.
