Which corps has won constant Fred Stanford Best Percussion awards from 2016-2019?

• A. Blue Devils
• B. Santa Clara Vanguard
• C. Bluecoats
• D. Crown

Answer: (B)

This question tests consistency in recognizing top percussion in DCI across multiple seasons. The Fred Sanford Best Percussion Award is given to the corps whose marching percussion program is judged the strongest at finals each year, reflecting tight technique, solid ensemble balance, and musical impact. Santa Clara Vanguard earned the Fred Sanford Best Percussion Award in every year from 2016 to 2019, giving them a four-year streak. That sustained recognition across all four seasons is why they are the best answer. The other corps listed did not achieve that same four-year consecutive run in this award during that span.
