BROCKPORT TO GET A PEP BAND

If you've ever been to a Brockport/Geneseo match-up, whether at Brockport or in Geneseo, you've no doubt experienced Geneseo's pep band, a gifted group of musicians who motivate the Geneseo players and fans quite well. Pep bands are a rarity in DIII sports but a majority of DI schools have them and they are an important part of campus culture.

Starting with the 2010-2011 academic/athletic year, Brockport will have it's own pep band play at various athletic games!

The hockey games will be a marquee event for them. This is huge for Brockport athletics and will add to the unbelievable home ice advantage the Golden Eagles have had the past two seasons.

The coordinators of this project are looking for any musicians who are interested in participating. If you are interested, please email hockey assistant coach Mark Digby at: mdigby@brockport.edu
