Posted By: Sofía Montiel on January 25, 2023

NORFOLK, Va. — The Norfolk State University Spartan Legion Marching Band has been voted the 2022 HBCU Sports Band of the Year.

In a week long poll, the Spartan Legion gained over 44 percent of the 207,933 total votes with a total 91,814 votes for the Spartans.

Under the direction of William H. Beathea, the Spartan Legion last won the award in 2019.

It has been an amazing month for the marching band including participating in the Rose Parade in California and taking part in the grand opening of the Rivers Casino Portsmouth.
