A fun Gael family connection that goes way back. ⏮️

Brady McKay ’30 started at Saint Mary’s last week and will play baseball for the Gaels. His great-grandfather, Mickey McKay ’33, was also a Gael baseball player nearly a century ago!

Great-grandfather Mickey (front row, center) was very close with legendary athletic director and baseball coach Lou Guisto, the namesake of baseball’s Guisto Field.

The Gael gene may have skipped a few generations, but it found its way back to the family tree and onto the baseball diamond. ⚾️

A new academic year begins, and so return time-honored traditions, like "Paint the SMC."

Students share a quick, fun note of thanks from atop the hillside letters. Go Gaels! ❤️💙

Some Gaels are starting college at a place they already know.

Glad to welcome new students whose parents or grandparents are Gaels, too!

President Thompson encouraged them to say yes and make the most of every opportunity college brings.

Parents/alumni, we’re glad your Saint Mary’s story continues in this special way.

Welcome home and can’t wait to see where you go from here!

A new era of Saint Mary’s aquatics starts today! 🌊

Saint Mary’s men’s water polo plays its first-ever match today, kicking off an inaugural season. And they’re already making a splash.

Despite never playing a game, the Gaels enter the season ranked No. 20 nationally.

They start with a challenge: Saint Mary’s opens play today at a tournament in San Diego, including against the top two teams in the nation.

The Gaels will play a full schedule and looks forward to home matches at the world-class Soda Aquatic Center in Moraga.

And this is just the beginning for the 2026–27. Men’s and women’s swimming will join the lineup this winter, followed by women’s water polo in the spring.

We hope you’ll follow along throughout this historic first year. See you on the pool deck! 💙❤️
