Taking it back to 1970 for this week’s ! 💜💛

Before the Braves called Jack Spinks – Marino Casem Stadium home, the Sounds of Dyn-O-Mite were bringing the heat and setting the standard at historic Henderson Stadium. This week’s photo captures the band in their element, executing a flawless field show on the turf in 1970.

Henderson Stadium was the true heartbeat of Braves football for 67 years. Originally opening in 1925, it was proudly named in honor of O.T. Henderson, Alcorn State’s very first football coach. Until it was discontinued as the primary home stadium in 1992, its field was hallowed ground for generations of iconic halftime performances and undeniable HBCU band pageantry.

Who remembers packing the stands at Henderson Stadium to watch the band go to work? Drop your favorite memories from the Henderson era in the comments below! 🎷🥁

Taking it back 40 years for this week’s ! 💜💛

True excellence doesn't fade—it inspires every generation that follows. The 1986 Alcorn State University Sounds of Dyn-O-Mite Marching Band proved what it means to set the gold standard in HBCU band culture.

Led by iconic Head Director of Bands Samuel S. Griffin and Band Director James Winters—alongside Assistant Directors Selwyn Reed and Rudolph Waters—this legendary unit built a foundation of power and precision that spans generations. From the command of Drum Majors Leroy Merriweather, Michael Gee, and Travon Neal to the breathtaking artistry of the World Renowned Golden Girls, Lady Purple Flashers, and feature twirler Riley Jones, the 1986 edition created a blueprint of excellence that still echoes across the field today.

Generations of Braves carry this torch forward. Tag someone who continues the legacy, and share your favorite memories from the Griffin era below! 🎷🥁
