Colorguard
The Archbishop Riordan Colorguard was started in Fall 2008 by alumnus, Mark Lieuw (Class of 07). The program is a collaboration between Riordan and Mercy SF High School. The program is still growing and this year (2009-2010) will be the second year of the program! The colorguard has been a great asset and addition to the band! In previous years, Riordan has only had one colorguard in (2004-2005) with an all-male flagline in the back of the band.
This year, the guard has reached a new milestone with seven members, a rifle line, and brand new uniforms!!! The colorguard will start the fall season competing after being recognized as a part of the marching band last year by NCBA. This year in October, colorguard placed fourth at the Santa Cruz Band Review and won a third place trophy at the Foothill Band Review!
We are always looking for new recruits for colorguard! Come out and give it a try!
Bring your friends! No experienece is necessary!
