Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Astros vs. Rangers game yesterday at Globe Life Field!

It was a fantastic afternoon of reconnecting with fellow Rice alumni, meeting new faces and enjoying one of Texas’ biggest rivalries together.

Events like these remind us that the Rice community extends far beyond campus. Whether you were cheering for the Astros or the Rangers, we hope you left with new connections and great memories.

We can’t wait to see you at our next event!
