The nine-member group includes OEHS Class of 2020 graduates Gabriel Aragones and Vince Urban.

X Men were sent to the second round of "AGT" with a vote of 3-1, thanks to guest judge Eric Stonestreet of "Modern Family" fame.

"America's Got Talent," currently in its 15th season, gives talented individuals and groups a chance to perform before the country, competing for the chance to win a headlining spot at a Las Vegas venue.
