DCI World Class Rankings - Mid-July

Below are the current rankings for DCI's World Class corps as of July 15th. I've added some new information in the regular rankings so let me walk you through it: The number on the left, of course, is the current ranking; for example, the Blue Devils are currently in 1st place. In the past two weeks (between July 1st and July 15th), the Blue Devils were ranked as low as 3rd place and as high as 1st place. (Rankings fluctuate daily, so I'm giving the range of rankings through these past two weeks.) The last number (up, down, no change, new) tells how well or poorly the corps has down since their last published ranking back as of June 30th. Once again, the Blue Devils were ranked 3rd back on June 30th, so they've jumped up two places.
