Come join us next season to see where we will end up next! The website should have all the exercises and materials you will need to be ready for auditions in August.

My name is Carlton Matthews and I'm serving as one of your section leaders for the 2012 Racer Band. I'm a Senior Pre-Law area, Political Science and History major from O'Fallon, Illinois. A few things about myself: I'm very involved on campus in many organizations, including Alpha Sigma Phi and Summer Orientation. I love reggae music and I'm very laid back! Although I like to be chill, the 2012 Racer Band drumline will be the hardest working section in the band. We have a great tradition and we expect a strong work ethic from everyone in the group.
