Embedded inside the Prairie View A&amp;M University Marching Band, The Marching Storm, this engaging eight-part series will capture the blood, sweat, and tears each member sheds to make it to the field while balancing their dynamic college life. March debuts on Monday, January 24 @ 8PM, and then March moves to Sundays starting February 27 @ 9PM, after ALL AMERICAN and ALL AMERICAN: HOMECOMING takes over Monday nights.<\/p>\n<p>March showcases the dedicated and energetic group of college students at Prairie View A&amp;M University &#8211; from drum majors and dancers to the flag team and all the section players &#8211; as they navigate performing in one of the most prestigious HBCU marching bands along with tackling a rigorous academic schedule and maintaining a high-grade point average. The series chronicles their pressure-filled journey to become the highest-ranked HBCU band in the land, including electrifying performances at homecoming, Texas A&amp;M and Southern University. As March shares the personal and unique stories of individual members and staff of the over 300-person marching band, it also explores the legacy and culture of Prairie View A&amp;M and highlights how the Marching Storm band is an integral part of that rich history.<\/p><div id=\"morty-2406903482\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The CW Network announced today the all-new docu-series March, which celebrates the colorful, boisterous, and competitive world of HBCU band culture through the eyes of the experts &#8211; the band members and leaders themselves.
