“The UConn football team hasn’t had a winning season since 2010. In fact they have only won 30 games since then. There to support them every game no matter what is the UConn Marching Band. While the team struggles, the band has flourished and grown to over 300 members strong. Preparations for the first game are underway with a special halftime show honoring Marjory Stoneman Douglas student Alex Schachter, who was killed in the school shooting on Valentine’s Day in 2018. The College Marching team joins the UConn Band for rehearsal and the first game.”
