UTRGV Madness

In collaboration with UTRGV Athletics, the Campus Activities Board and The Herd; Student Activities helps create week-long events to increase school spirit and celebrate the men's & women's teams. On the Friday of that week, the Fieldhouse turns into a madhouse, with the Pep Band performing alongside Cheer & Dance teams, student organizations competing in the annual dance-off, and athletes competing in games. All ending with a preview of the men's & women's basketball teams as they get ready to start the season.
