Band spotlight
Coppin State Pep Band
Band founded 2023
Coppin has no marching band — and no NCAA football team — so the Pep Band is the school's game-day sound, built for the indoor arena. An earlier pep band played home basketball games in the mid-2010s under head coach Michael Grant, but the current band was formally relaunched in fall 2023 as the centerpiece of the MEAC game-day atmosphere at the Physical Education Complex. It is open to all students, with or without experience. (Earlier directors unverified — no complete historical roster is publicly documented.)
