Wait is that the Mt. St Mary’s Pep Band?

So you’re at the Mount Saint Mary’s basketball game last night vs Robert Morris University. While you’re sitting there you hear this ridiculous pep band rocking out in the corner. They’re wearing “Mount” attire and cheering for the home team. Naturally you think, wow the “Mount” band is AWESOME. Like these guys did:

Wow. The mount band doesn't mess around. Two full drum sets, electric guitar, plus standard instruments. They're bumpin

Last night, the VCU Athletic Band was called in to help bring some energy to the Mount’s gym. It worked! Mount crushed Robert Morris. Mount head coach, Jamion Christian, was a VCU coach under Shaka Smart. He knows what kind of fire the VCU Band brings to games.

Even the players were appreciative of them coming and celebrated their big win with the visiting band.

Dancing with the band, the @MSMU @MountHoops team celebrates their 70-49 win over @RMU Thursday. @frednewspost pic.twitter.com/lOKBQFCfC0
