Alumni Cheer on Eagles

McDonogh alumni broke out their orange and black for a weekend of cheer surrounding the 99th McDonogh-Gilman football game. Festivities started at the inaugural McDonogh-Gilman joint alumni happy hour at Mt. Washington Tavern on Friday night, November 7. Good sportsmanship prevailed, and the spirit of the healthy rivalry was evident in remarks by Gilman's Headmaster Henry Smyth and McDonogh's Headmaster Charlie Britton. The following day, after the heart-pounding race to the victory when the Eagles beat the Greyhounds in overtime, alumni celebrated the win at Ryan's Daughter in Belvedere Square.
