Rank 2 is the clarinet rank with bright ambition and fierce energy. Armed with puffy paint, they're always ready to take on anything that comes their way. Whether they're fighting high notes above the third octave or preparing for a themed rehearsal, they'll always be Rank 2 Perfect. They encapsulate whimsical yet intellectual personalities that evenly balances their performance skills. Rank 2 expresses the utmost dedication and spirit for the Marching 97.
