Jackson, MS.......Sunday, August 23, 2009. Near the campus of Jackson State University. At 6pm the Sonic Boom Freshman where first to march from the F.D. Hall Music center on the campus of Jackson State to the "Dust Bowl" for Mortal Combat!!!!!!! It was The JSU Sonic Boom of the South UPPERCLASSMEN and the JSU Prancing J-Settes VS the JSU Sonic Boom CRABS (Band and J-Sette) at the place we call the "Dust Bowl" the football field behind Blackburn Middle School. Then the JSU Sonic Boom UPPERCLASSMEN marched to the field a few minutes after the CRABS. Both the Crabs and the UPPERCLASSMEN played songs and performed drill maneuvers before the crowd. The crowd REALLY turned about to support the 2009 Edition of the Jackson State Sonic Boom of the South there where JSU students, neighbors from the surrounding communities and JSU Sonic Boom parents. It was a great atmosphere to give everyone a small sample for what is in store this fall season in SWAC (South Western Athletic Conference) action. The Sonic Boom will be led this fall by Interim Sonic Boom Director, Mr. Renardo Murray.
