ALUMNI
FLAG FOOTBALL
This year over Thanksgiving break, over 30 alumni gathered around Roberts Field as spectators or players in the annual Old School versus New School flag football game. Alumni from 1997 to 2017 enjoyed hot drinks, food from the grill, and music as the Old School team was victorious for the second year in a row. Thank you to Annie Kapp ’12, James Barnett ’10, JJ Bain ’06, Sara Potter ’01, and Chris Robbins P ’17 ’22 for organizing the event and keeping everyone well fed!
