We can’t wait to see everyone to cheer on the team and raise money for our Spearman scholarship fund. The Buckeyes open the season at Indiana on Thursday, August 31. See you at the gamewatches!


Big Ten Night at Nats Park

Join fellow Big Ten alumni from across the DMV to support the conference and show your school pride at the ballpark! Show off your alumni spirit by wearing your school colors with the rest of your Big Ten friends as you share an evening of Nationals baseball as they take on the Miami Marlins next Thursday, August 10. Tickets include a B1G/Nats koozie, plus $2 of every ticket sold will go toward scholarship funds for Big Ten schools. Visit the Nationals B1G Night page to purchase tickets now! Be sure to indicate Ohio State when you purchase your tickets! (On the payment page, enter “Ohio State” in the comment field that says “Please enter your B1G Alumni group below.”)


Welcome New Alumni!

Join fellow alumni in greeting recent graduates, introducing them to Washington DC, and showing them all the ways they can stay connected to Ohio State.

The New Buckeyes, New City event will be held at Carmine’s in Penn Quarter on Wednesday, August 23 from 6-8pm. Appetizers will be served, and each guest gets one complimentary drink ticket.

We’ll also be recognizing one to two Rising Buckeyes. This is a special recognition of alumni making an astounding impact and doing great things in our community.
