Southeastern Homecoming features large crowds, pleasant fall weather
October 24, 2022
Alumni, friends, and students of Southeastern Oklahoma State University enjoyed a variety of activities Friday and Saturday as part of the 2022 Homecoming Celebration.
Student activities were held throughout the week, and the Whang Bang Alumni Golf Tournament kicked things off on a beautiful fall Friday morning at Chickasaw Pointe, while the Distinguished Awards banquet was held that night in the Visual & Performing Arts Center. Stacy Shepherd, Executive Officer of Member Services at Choctaw Nation, received the Distinguished Alumna Award, while the Semple Family was honored with the Benefactor Award.
Later Friday night, a pep rally was held on campus ahead of Saturday’s homecoming football game against Oklahoma Baptist.

The Savage Storm capped off the weekend with a 62-14 thumping of OBU. Named as Homecoming Royalty were Madison Hunt of Lone Grove and MeKenzie Cruz of Tulsa.
