The 61st Annual Alumni Weekend was this past weekend and it was a lot of fun! Over 80 brothers and guests attended. The open bar at the bowling alley on Friday night was a real treat, as was the Elder vs. Active softball game on Saturday afternoon. The Elders defeated the Actives 12-5 behind a complete game pitching performance by Lauck Walton '84. The Phi Alpha scattered 7 hits over 9 innings and struck out 5 batters, including Jamie Zajac '13 twice. The Elder infield was particularly strong and more than made up for some of the holes in the outfield (Andrew Darst '11).
Ryan Vasko '12 performed valiantly for the losers, but was brought down by numerous errors from Arjun Chavern '15 and Joey Tripodo '14.
The Elders are now 2-0 in sporting events against the Actives. As you may recall, the Elders beat the Actives in soccer last year 4-3 in sudden death. Perhaps next year, the Actives will get in the winning column.
Pictures of the weekend will be posted soon, so stay tuned!
