ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. ā After the pandemic forced its cancelation in 2020, the University of Central Florida is planning to bring back a beloved homecoming tradition in 2021: Spirit Splash.
UCF said this will be the first time the school has hosted Spirit Splash in the spring.
The event typically sees a large portion of the student body run headlong into the pond on the schoolās campus in a show of school spirit.
The pond is out and the lawn is in for this second homecoming week of the academic year.
