Color GuardIn the fall, the Samohi Color Guard performs with the Viking Marching Band. During the spring semester, the Guard competes against other teams in the Winter Guard Association of Southern California (WGASC), the largest Winter Guard organization in North America. On Saturday, April 25th, sixty-five guards in the WGASC High School Division “A” competed in championship rounds at two sites in Huntington Beach. With a 95.07, the Samohi Winter Guard outscored them all and won the gold medal for the second year in a row.
