On Saturday, October 3, parents and family members kicked off the 2026-27 school year with a tailgate at the home of Jane and Tom Kiernan (parents of Jack '27). After enjoying great food, drink, and company, everyone walked over to Jack McGovern Field for an all-time classic game that saw 2nd ranked BC engineer a comeback after being down 24-0 to beat top-ranked Don Bosco 34-30 on a last-minute touchdown.
