Our New Hampshire alumni chapter is already looking forward to its next event when the Bearcats men's basketball team visits the University of New Hampshire in February. In October, the chapter hosted a gathering at The University of New Hampshire to watch the Bearcats take on the UNH Wildcats in men's soccer. Though the Bearcats did not come out on top, the alumni enjoyed perfect weather, an exciting game and great company.
