Before the season I heard the Michigan Marching Band drum major Walter Aguilar did something really cool to honor the 2020 seniors. For context, thanks to COVID last year’s MMB didn’t get the chance to perform in the Big House, and that certainly must have hurt the folks in their final year in Ann Arbor. Bummer, dudes.
But Aguilar did something about it, and what a cool tribute. He had the initials of each one of those seniors engraved on his righteous drum major baton. I found Walter after his pregame duties and had a closer look:
Sidenote: Aguilar asked me if I was looking for anyone’s initials in particular, suggesting that he’s got the layout practically committed to memory. I love it.
That’s leadership right there! Well done. Go Blue.
