Chances are, you don’t pay close attention to this small New Jersey college’s basketball track record.
However, if you did, you would know that the Monmouth University Hawks have some of their best players sitting on the bench. Typically, benchwarmer is a position most athletes would rather not take part in. However, these guys have truly made a mediocre situation into something absolutely hilarious.
We’re fairly certain the team has cheerleaders who are actually cheering on the layers and the crowd, but they greatly pale in comparison to the guys sitting on the bench.
Athletes take their celebrations pretty seriously, and these guys are no exception.
They clap…but not with their hands:
Monmouth bench celebrations are the best. https://t.co/g1Fu4xgGF7

And, of course, they play basketball:

Monmouth basketball has officially set the new standard of what the sidelines should look like. These guys have a better attitude about being on the bench than any other athletes in any other sport. They’ve brightened up the court and are truly in a league of their own when it comes to standing on the sidelines.
