Crown Drops The Hammer In Houston

The next time you see the Carolina Crown hornline in the lot, take notice of the sledge hammer they carry. It's a fairly new tradition created when former percussion caption head Tom Aungst said the hornline hits you like a sledge hammer. Now, they carry a full size sledge hammer with a wooden handle that has "Crown Brass" burned into the handle. Although the hammer represents their power, it's their caption head Matt Harloff's legendary energy in their warmup arc that gives them the adrenaline needed to bring that power.
