[Photo Story] Relive Homecoming Weekend 2018

Now that you’ve had a full day to recover from the heartbreaking 21-17 loss to Michigan State, it’s time to relive the other, more successful parts of Homecoming weekend.

One of the more notorious Homecoming traditions is the Alumni Blue Band performances. More than 300 Blue Band alumni returned this year to perform in the parade and at the football game.

Another exciting moment during the parade is the longstanding tradition of announcing the upcoming year’s THON theme. THON 2019 will be (drum roll, please) “Shape The Moment.”

This year’s Homecoming game involved coordination from all of Beaver Stadium for the fourth annual Stripe Out.

The halftime show included a performance by the Blue Band, later joined by the Alumni Blue Band. Noorein Ahmed and Nick Karafilis were named the recipients of Homecoming’s inaugural “Guide State Forward” award.
