I can't speak directly to the Michigan Band, but I know the Minnesota Band had separate pep bands for hockey and basketball (both subsets of the football marching band.)  The NC$$, however, only allows 24 band members (according to a band member posting on PrideOnIce), so what you'll see at the regional will be a smaller subset yet.

My guess is that Minnesota would have enough band members to send bands to the Women's Frozen Four in Providence, the Women's Sweet 16 in Norfolk, and the hockey regional in Grand Rapids this weekend.  Coming up with the money might be the bigger issue.

Which means, of course, that the fans at Manchester will get to hear "Hail to the Victors" 3,613
times.

Michigan has separate pep bands for each sport, correct?  I'll swear I've heard a band at a hockey
event when there was a band at a basketball event.
