Richmond band plays ‘Pony’, becomes your new favorite college band

Ricky O'Donnell has covered basketball at all levels for more than a decade at SB Nation. He’s currently the Associate Director of Programming.

You might have thought 2014 was The Year of the Pony around SB Nation, but let me let you in on a little secret: the Year of the Pony is as infinite as time itself. 2015 is very much still the Year of the Pony, and thank you to the Richmond band for helping us remember it during the Atlantic-10 Tournament.

The Spiders might be a big underdog to VCU, but we know who we’re rooting for now.
