UMass Football News--October 8th, 2021

From the Gridiron Club weekly e-mail: " This weekend’s game is Band Day, led by the Power the Class of New England, the Minuteman Marching Band.  We’ll have nearly 1,100 high school band members in attendance.  The UConn band will also be in the stadium and perform as part of the festivities.  "

Band Day is always fun and UConn's band being there will add some rivalry to the performance. Come to the game and cheer for the Minutemen.
