After COVID-19 forced adjustments to Diadeloso in 2020 (online) and 2021 (spread throughout the week), Baylor’s own special holiday returned in all its in-person, day-long glory for 2022 — just in time for the event’s 90th anniversary.

(A memorial in their honor stands in the heart of campus.) Nearly a century has passed since that day — this year […]
One could make a very good case that, in only the Bears’ second year under head coach Dave Aranda, we just saw the best Baylor football team ever in 2021. No Bears team has ever won more games; Baylor finished 12-2 on the season, including a program-record five wins over ranked opponents. They just won […]
Has it really been 10 years??

After celebrating virtually last year, Christmas on 5th Street was back in all its glory this year to usher in the most wonderful time of the year!
