RECONNECT 25

 RECONNECT 25

The second annual RECONNECT event was held this past weekend (April 4-5). There were a record number of alumni and guests including including members of the 1965 and 1975 Men's NCAA National Championship team. Members of the 1975 Women's team were there as well, to receive recognition of important achievements in Women's athletics.

The weekend began with a meet-up at the "The Dungeon" for some socializing and photo-ops.

Afterwards, guests made their way to "Town and Gown" for the USC Swimming and Diving Year End Banquet.

RECONNECT concluded with the luncheon at McKay's. We were fortunate to have the likes of Tim Tessalone emcee the activities which included special recognition of the 1965 and 1975 Men's National Championship teams.

The 1975 Women's team was acknowledged for so many "first" in women's athletics at USC. They were well represented including Pokey Watson-Richardson (Coach), Linda Stimpson (Swimmer), and Barbara Hedges (former Associate USC athletics director).
