Homecoming, Reunion, and the Dedication of O’Keeffe Field On Saturday, September 25, hundreds of Roxbury Latin fans—students, alumni, faculty, families, and friends—gathered on campus for a long-awaited Homecoming/Fall Family Day and Reunion, the first athletic and social event of its kind on campus since October 2019.
The day brought athletic competitions across campus, including varsity matches in cross country, soccer, and football. Cross country topped Rivers 16–47; football beat Middlesex in a nail-biter match by a score of 16–13; and soccer put up a valiant effort against Brooks, but ultimately fell 2–1. Before kick-off, Headmaster Brennan—along with members of the O’Keeffe family and trustees—gathered at the 50-yard line to officially dedicate the turf football/lacrosse field as O’Keeffe Field, in honor of the late trustee and loyal alumnus, Bill O’Keeffe ’57.
