Homecoming

What better way to kick off homecoming than a Volleyball Tournament? Gather your friends or organization members for a game of volleyball! Participants will engage in friendly competition where the first Homecoming points will be awarded.

Each year residence halls, student organizations and fraternities and sororities design and create banners that display their Pioneer spirit and pride while incorporating their overall participation theme. These banners are displayed in the Pioneer Crossing, The Markee throughout the Homecoming week.

Is your team up for the challenge? Put your organization’s knowledge to the test. Trivia will quiz your team on topics including music, pop culture, and more! There will be two different brackets, one for general students and one for participating Homecoming teams!  The top three teams not competing for Homecoming points will be awarded campus cash!

Fuel up for Homecoming with a pit stop you won’t want to miss. Stop by Capstan Scholars Hall, The Markee to try one of the custom Homecoming themed drinks that will keep you fueled or all the Homecoming fun throughout the week. 🏁🥤

CPR has just declared war. TUG OF WAR. Put on your face paint and marching shoes for one of CPR’s favorite homecoming events. Homecoming teams will compete against each other to see who pulls to the top! 

Stop by and create a poster to cheer on the Women's Volleyball team at Yell Night! All supplies provided and free! Supplies will move to the lobby outside of Bo Ryan Court at 6 p.m. 

Scream, cheer, and work as a team to compete in this year’s Yell Night Homecoming Event! Points are based on the loudest, most spirited, enthusiastic and creative groups as well as those who demonstrate excellent sportsmanlike conduct. Women's Volleyball will be taking on Carroll University and they need you to yell and cheer them on!
