Two of the Falcon marching band leaders this year are local musicians, who hope to make music their career.
Emily Haver and Zach Deininger are two of three drum majors leading Bowling Green State University's band this year.
Haver, a senior, is a 2009 graduate of Bowling Green High School, while Deininger, a junior, is a 2011 graduate of Elmwood High School.
The third drum major is Ryan Flynn of Avon Lake.
Fourteen musicians interviewed for marching band drum major this year, explained Haver, who had tried out for four years before getting chosen this year, her last on campus.
"It just depends on who is auditioning."
Haver plays trombone, while Deininger plays mellophone.
This is Deininger's second year as drum major.
Both are music education majors, and Haver will graduate in May.
"I'm going wherever I can get something," Haver laughingly admitted about her local job options.
Deininger has a goal of becoming a college band director.
