Beautiful,\u201d \u201cAmazing Grace\u201d and \u201cGod Bless America,\u201d before finishing with a number that reflected the pageantry and style that Bethune-Cookman and historically Black colleges and universities bands are known for.<\/p>\n<p>UCF Director of Athletic Bands Tremon Kizer approached Donovan Wells, longtime director of bands for B-CU, over the summer with the idea to collaborate. Wells says that in his 25 years with the program this marked the first time the Marching Wildcats united with an opposing band for a halftime show. The bands \u2014 which totaled 654 members combined \u2014 had just one 45-minute, in-person rehearsal together hours before they took the field in front of 38,000 people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf these were not extremely talented, committed and intelligent students, we could not have pulled this off. I also think the bands showed a prime example that if you take the time to learn about each other, you realize you have a lot more in common than you have different from each other. Being an educator, that\u2019s what it\u2019s all about.\u201d \u2014 Donovan Wells, Bethune-Cookman director of bands<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UCFKnights\/status\/1437073490469871619?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1565\" class=\"img-fluid alignleft wp-image-123000 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911.jpg\" alt=\"screen grab twitter halftime show\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-613x800.jpg 613w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-393x512.jpg 393w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-1178x1536.jpg 1178w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-307x400.jpg 307w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-276x360.jpg 276w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1565\" class=\"img-fluid alignleft wp-image-123000 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201200%201565%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"screen grab twitter halftime show\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201200%201565%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-613x800.jpg 613w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-393x512.jpg 393w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-1178x1536.jpg 1178w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-307x400.jpg 307w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911-276x360.jpg 276w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/09\/ucf-end-halftime-show-911.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen it all came together, it was quite moving.
