Patton

The words to the fight song Patton, were written by some of the students in the late 70's.  Coach Nicholson began playing the tape of General Patton's speech to his football players to inspire them to play hard.  It became so inspirational to the team, that some of the students wanted the band to play it during the game at crucial times, to boost the team.  Mr. Castellano, band director, agreed and decided it needed words.  Patton became very important to the student body and parents.  Coach Nicholson would not start a game until the tape was played to his team.
