It's a tradition like no other. 

Fans then break the silence by storming the court at Odle Arena. 

Friday marked the annual game, this time against Moody Bible Institute. And fans didn't have to keep quiet for too long. 

The traditions continued in the final minute of the game as the crowd, arm-in-arm, began to sing "Silent Night."

Taylor walked away with a 107-59 and improved to 26-1 all-time in "Silent Night" games. 

According to the school's website, Taylor is an "interdenominational liberal arts university of evangelical faith" in Upland, Indiana.
