October 18 was a warm sunny day and a very festive evening on the Coldwater Canyon campus, where several athletic events took place and the Homecoming Reunion Day reception was held.
Packed crowds were on campus all day. More than 200 alumni spanning class years from 1938 to the present, their guests, and current and retired faculty traveled from across the United States to attend the reception at the Feldman-Horn Gallery prior to the varsity football game.
Among the 200+ attendees were Carl Miller '38 and his fiancée, who will be tying the knot this weekend at Saint Saviour's Chapel.
Homecoming Reunion Day provided many opportunities for alumni to reconnect with each other and with their former teachers. A great time was had by all.
The evening concluded with the Wolverines beating St. Bernard 37 – 0 under the field lights at Ted Slavin Field. Earlier in the day, three other Harvard-Westlake teams beat their opponents on campus: boys' varsity water polo, girls' varsity volleyball, and girls' varsity field hockey. Go Wolverines!
