Every highlight comes from the Yard roster — nothing invented.
Band spotlight
No marching band exists at UVI — the university fields NAIA basketball, track, and cross country, and no marching band, drumline, or band director is documented anywhere in UVI's materials. What does exist is a music program: a Music Education Center on the St. Thomas campus (built during the Kean presidency), and student activities list a concert band, jazz band, and music ensembles alongside dance, drama, and the student newspaper. The Reichhold Center for the Arts — a 1,196-seat amphitheater — is the territory's premier performance venue. Any band references in this profile should reflect concert/jazz ensembles, never a marching band.
