On February 27, members of the Walter G. O’Connell Copiague High School and Copiague Middle School Winter Guards participated in the Mid-Atlantic Indoor Network (MAIN) Winter Guard Competition at Hicksville High School. The 18 members of the high school team, which has been in existence since 1999, placed first out of 13 teams. Their win boosted them into a higher grouping, the Scholastic A Division. The middle school team, which was formed in 2004, currently has 14 members. The girls took second place in the competition, but took three out of five special category awards. Tracy Bapst coaches both teams.
