UTRGV Battle of the Colleges
11th Annual Battle of the Colleges/UTRGV Men's Basketball vs. UT Arlington
About Battle of Colleges
Deans from different colleges across the university, along with student volunteers from their colleges, will compete in a halftime free throw tournament. The winner will receive a trophy and bragging rights.
There will also be a second trophy awarded for the college that shows the most spirit with the attendance tally. Students, faculty, staff, friends and family members can begin signing in to be counted towards attendance trophy of your college from 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM. The check-in table for the College of Education and P-16 Integration will be located at the entrance of the Fieldhouse.
Calling for Student Volunteer
We are placing a call out for a CEP student volunteer interested in joining Dean Rodríguez on the court for a free-throw tournament. Last year Michael Cavazos volunteered to help the college in the Battle of the Colleges. If you are interested, reach out to Belinda Valles.
Each college will have 30 seconds for the Dean and student volunteer to make the most free-throws at half-time.
