There are Nanda van Bergenmany songs to which a college sports team could hypothetically take the field. Players could run onto the grass while "Get Ready For This" blares. Or they could play some AC/DC. They could even blast that one song from 8 Mile.
Or they could layer a Donald Trump speech over an EDM track, as the Adelphi University men's lacrosse team did.
That shouldn't ruffle any feathers!

"In all of our cities and all of our towns, I make this promise," Trump intones in the team's entrance track, as an EDM quote-unquote song begins. "We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again."
After "make America great again" in the video shared online, the team runs onto the field led by a player holding an American flag.

"It was not intended to provoke or be taken as a political statement," Adelphi lacrosse coach Gordon Purdie said in a statement published by Newsdayon Thursday. "We’re sorry if anyone was offended."
Responses to Barstool's Twitter post of the video were, um, shall we say, "varied." Some deemed it an amazing entrance song and declared pride. Some registered disgust. Then there was this reply:

Indeed, lacrosse typically being a sport played by privileged children makes the choice by the Adelphi team that much more interesting. (Deadspin, never one for subtlety, labeled the video some "extremely white shit.")
Adelphi University is a small school with some 5,000 undergraduate students located in Nassau County on Long Island. Its lacrosse program competes in Division II.
The team's next game, on Saturday, comes against Pace University in the NCAA Tournament. But a school spokesperson, citing "mandated NCAA policy for playoff games," told Newsdaythe Trump-EDM track won't be played beforehand.
