Family & Alumni Weekend!
Last year's Family and Alumni Weekend was a huge success with the most visitors in its history! The 2024 edition featured men's and women's soccer games, and Rockhurst volleyball (both men's and women's teams!) in historic Mason-Halpin Fieldhouse. Additional activities included Kansas City tailgating, inflatables for kids, the Hopkins 5K run, Alumni of Color lunch, Golden Hawks reunion of the Class of 1974, and perhaps most notable – lots of food, fun, and friends! Stay tuned for information on the next Family and Alumni Weekend, Sept. 26-28, 2025!
