The Bobcat Marching Band rehearses music, Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2020, at a practice field outside Strahan Arena.

After COVID-19 swept through San Marcos over the summer, university athletics and spirit organizations remained in limbo on whether or not they would be able to play for, perform for and support Texas State. 

For the Bobcat Marching Band, a season of socially-distanced stand tunes and pre-recorded marching shows allowed them to continue performing while also remaining as safe as possible.

In this audio story, multimedia contributor Karleen Fisher-Irizarry speaks with Dr. Kyle Glaser, associate director of Bands at Texas State, about how the Bobcat Marching Band has operated this football season, changes that were made and what is to come for the concert season.
