Athletics Hall of Fame Dinner
Established in 1975, the Maritime College Athletics Hall of Fame honors alumni who distinguished themselves as student-athletes at Maritime and have continued to make a difference through their professional achievements and service to their communities.
Join us Thursday, October 22, 2026, at 6 p.m. in the Maritime Academic Center for an evening celebrating pride, legacy, and leadership as we welcome the Maritime College Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2026.
We look forward to honoring this exceptional group of alumni and celebrating their accomplishments, their contributions to Maritime athletics, and the lasting legacy they have built as members of the Maritime community.
Be part of this special Homecoming tradition. Register today to join us in celebrating the Class of 2026 and the legacy of Maritime athletics.
October 23 – 24, 2026
Maritime College's Homecoming & Reunion is set, and we look forward to welcoming alumni and their families back to the Fort for a weekend filled with tradition, celebration, and Maritime pride.
From reconnecting with classmates and friends to sharing the Maritime experience with the next generation, there is something for everyone throughout the weekend. We’ll celebrate milestone reunion classes ending in ’1 and ’6, cheer on our Privateers, and enjoy many of the traditions that make Homecoming special—including the Ancient Mariner Golf Outing, Pass in Review, Heritage Hall, alumni scrimmages, and more.
Come back to the Fort, celebrate where it all began, and make new memories with the Maritime community.
Ancient Mariner & Paddy's
Reconnect with fellow Maritime College alums and celebrate the traditions and memories that make the Maritime community special at the MCAA Post-Game Celebration on Saturday, October 24, from 4–7 p.m. Generously sponsored by the Family of Capt. Joe R. Gerson ’47, this gathering is a chance to reconnect with classmates and old friends. Join us after the game for an afternoon of camaraderie and celebration at Paddy's on the Bay.
Registration for the Ancient Mariner Golf Outing is closed. If you are still interested in golfing, please contact the Maritime College Alumni Association (MCAA) to ask about availability. Registration is still available for the Ancient Mariner Golf Luncheon.
