The Notre Dame fight song may go by the wayside in light of recent desires to have a signature song for the Spring-Ford Rams.
The Spring-Ford Golden Ram Marching Band may be "marching to a new tune" this fall for the 2012 football season. Not only will the program have a new band director, but it may also have a new fight song. Currently, the band uses the Notre Dame University fight song during football games. However, Spring-Ford Area School District Board of Education Vice President Joe Ciresi said negotiations were made with Dr. Andrew Yozviak of the West Chester University band to create a new fight song for the Rams. Yozviak and Spring-Ford have worked closely together in the past. Ciresi said the cost of the new song was less than $1,000 and came out of the band budget. "Every time we do a game, we're doing the Notre Dame fight song," said Ciresi. "The …
