Kansas State Cat Band
"Playing in the CatBand has been an extremely rewarding experience. Not only do I get to "rock out" to some great tunes, but we have the opportunity to watch some of the best college basketball the NCAA has to offer."

The "Cat Band" is a group that plays during volleyball matches, men's and women's basketball games, as well as other events in the community to energize the Wildcat Nation!!
