"Winning a Bands of America regional championship is always a big a deal," Miranda said.

"It's a pretty prestigious thing, and it puts us as part of a small club in the country. They're very excited. They had a good time."

In addition to the championship win, the Regiment finished first in "Outstanding General Effects" and tied for the top spot for "Outstanding Visuals."

Miranda said the victory has given students an extra boost of confidence.
