Baylor Homecoming Guide: Football, Traditions, & Parade
Though many institutions make claims and battle for the title of “First Ever Homecoming,” our very own Baylor University celebrated the official first collegiate homecoming with the Thanksgiving football game and parade in 1909. The event has morphed since its inception 115 years ago, but one thing remains true – homecoming serves to reunite the community and welcome Baylor alumni home. Whether you’re a seasoned Baylor Homecoming veteran (you know the best place to see the parade, you’ve packed your lawn chair, and you know the nearest place to find a Dr Pepper Float) or you’re a first-timer, our guide has you covered for an exciting homecoming weekend Oct. 24-26.

The Picture on Ted Uhlaender’s Baseball Card
In fall 1957, just 5’9” weighing only 129 pounds Theodore Otto “Ted” Uhlaender journeyed from McAllen to Waco and asked to try-out for the baseball team. As a non-scholarship walk-on, he led the freshman team in hitting. By his junior year, Uhlaender was one of the Southwest Conference’s leading hitters, batting a sizzling .365. Ted was all-Southwest Conference in baseball three times. After graduating, it wasn’t long before he began an eight-year major league career with the Twins, Cleveland Indians, and ending with the Cincinnati Reds.
Bears on Skis
Joe Gage III grew up on the water, his summer days occupied by buoys and the never-ending pursuit of the perfect gliding technique. His father was part of Baylor’s fledgling club water skiing team in the late 1980s and early ‘90s, and the younger Gage — an avid athlete — quickly adapted the elder’s love of the sport. “I’ve played a lot of other sports, but there’s nothing else like this,” Gage III said. “There’s a unique rush with waterskiing, and I’ve always been chasing that rush. I guess you could say it’s in my blood.” His father added: “I can remember going to my tax class with dripping wet clothes because I just came from practice and didn’t want to leave that time with my friends. So, to see Joe fall in love with the sport that gave me so much, that’s really special.”
