You might not know CSU Athletics historian John Hirn (B.A., ’93) personally, but you have been able to experience a CSU tradition or memory because of him. On November 29, Hirn went from historian to history maker when he rang the Old Main Bell.
Raised in Fort Collins to a family of die-hard Rams fans, Kathleen Pitre (B.A., ’00; M.S., ’04) has always been “green and gold from the word go,” and makes it a point to stay until the very last second of every home Rams game. While she loves the thrill of the game, it’s CSU and its community that keeps her so closely connected to her alma mater.
From his high school graduation to basketball camps to officiating Junior Rams games, Moby Arena has always been a special place for Jorge Perez (B.A., ’89).

Whether it was attending baseball games as a kid or winning flag football championships during her time at Colorado State University, sports have always been an important part of Katie George’s (B.S., ’20) life. Despite her love of all things athletics, the marketing major never expected to pursue a career in that industry until she discovered CSU’s Sports Management Institute. That experience not only helped her see how many job opportunities there were in the sports world, it led her to her dream job with the Colorado Rockies.
If you know the name Zack Golditch (B.A., ’17), you probably remember him as a football player for the Rams. However, those who know about his life before and after CSU have a greater appreciation for him and his courageous career.
On Sunday, July 30, all CSU fans are invited to see the Colorado Rockies hopefully light up the Oakland A’s at Coors Field during the 2023 Rams at the Rockies game.
