“We went to the Pac-12 championship tournament for basketball in Las Vegas, and we won that. That was super exciting. That was a super-intense game. … I think because we’re in the marching band we pay a lot more attention to the game because we have to pay attention to the game, and in that way we’re more invested in the game.”

“The (Jan. 9) basketball game against Arizona. Even though we lost, it was a big deal. They were ranked No. 1 and we were giving them a run for their money. It was exciting.”
