Congratulations to the 2024 recipient of the Russ Swanson Outstanding Band Member, Spencer Knight! Spencer is a senior from North Liberty, Iowa majoring in civil engineering. Spencer was presented the award at the annual Band Awards on Friday, March 28, by our vice president, Frank Stroup.
This award is presented to a band member demonstrating the highest standard of attitude, musicianship, leadership, and service to the University of Nebraska Band Program. Along with a custom plaque created by our alum, Nathan Nelson of Rooted Woodworking, he also received a $100 award, a life membership in the UNL Band Alumni Association, and their name on a plaque which is on display at Westbrook Music Building.
