Celebrating the team's 40th anniversary, coach Mike Coven welcomed several members back to campus to reunite. The Judges even recreated the starting lineup on the field.

Former student-athletes gathered after the soccer match to meet with current Judges to give their best advice on how to start their careers after graduation.

At the alumni panel, from left, were Marshall Goldman '03, swimming and diving; Alec Spivack '15, soccer; Marissa Pick '04, softball; University President Ron Leibowitz; Shaun Oliver '97, soccer; and Friends of Brandeis Athletics president Jessica Bergman '91, basketball and softball.

One of the centerpieces of the weekend for the Department of Athletics was the 17th Joseph M. Linsey Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

This year's class included Ken Hannan '95, soccer (standing, left); Bryan Lambert '05 ,baseball and basketball (seated, left); Mariko (Tansey Holbrook) Neveu '03, track and cross country (seated center); and Jim Zotz, swimming and diving coach 1978-2010 (seated, right). They were joined by University President Ron Leibowitz.

The ceremony was filled with fond remembrances and sincere thank yous. Mariko Tansey Holbrook Neveu's '03 speech was especially touching.

Zero Year Reunion

The evening culminated back in the Gosman Center with the annual Zero-Year Reunion bash, as alumni young and old met up with old friends and continued to reminisce on their time at Brandeis as Judges.
