Rita's Cantina & Bar at JW Marriott Camelback Inn
5402 E. Lincoln Dr., Paradise Valley

Join the BC Phoenix Chapter next Thursday for the annual Christmas Happy Hour! We'll gather at the patio at Rita's Cantina & Bar at the JW Marriott Camelback Inn to celebrate the season and look forward to 2026. Enjoy the convenient parking at Camelback inn and head in the main entrance and go straight ahead (past Starbucks and Rita's inside seating) through the doors and out to the patio. Like last year, we plan to go outside to the patio to take in the mountain views, live music and the forecasted mild weather. Join us for a drink or stay a while and enjoy a meal. Either is great, we just want to get together with other Eagles and friends. As always, friends and family are more than welcome. RSVPs (to Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected]) are appreciated but certainly not required. Feel free to reach out to with any questions, and we hope to see you all there!

Gamewatch tomorrow in Scottsdale!

BC Football vs. Clemson
Saturday, October 11, 2025 @ 4:30 p.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill
7919 E. Thomas Road, Scottsdale [Please note we will meet at the Scottsdale location at the SW corner of Hayden and Thomas]

BC comes home to a sold-out Alumni Stadium looking to turn things around on the season with a win over Clemson. The Eagles will pin their hopes on sophomore quarterback Dylan Lonergan (nine touchdown passes and top-40 nationally in passing yards) and the possible return of several players who were injured and missed last week's ugly loss at Pitt. Clemson is 2-3 following a win over North Carolina last weekend.

Come join the BC Chapter to watch the game at R.T. O'Sullivan's in Scottsdale! Please note this gamewatch will be at the Scottsdale location of R.T. O'Sullivan's, and not the Phoenix location. R.T.'s will have the game on multiple TV screens with audio and will have food specials available for the late afternoon kickoff. As always, friends and family are always welcome and please let us know if you have any questions. Go Eagles!

Get your first look at the 2025 Eagles with us as we watch the season opener on Saturday!

BC football vs. Fordham
Saturday, August 30, 2025 @ 11 a.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill
7575 N. 16th Street, Phoenix

BC football kicks off the 2025 season with a home game against the Fordham Rams. The Eagles are led by second-year coach Bill O'Brien, the former head coach of Penn State and the NFL's Houston Texans and a long-time assistant with the New England Patriots under Bill Belichik. On the field the Eagles will look to new quarterback Dylan Lonergan, a transfer from Alabama, and senior wide receiver Lewis Bond, as well as a group of returnees in the defensive secondary, to lead the way. This matchup will be BC's 28th all-time game against Fordham, but its first in 71 years after the fellow Jesuit university dropped football for more than three decades.

Come join the BC Phoenix Chapter to watch this season-opening game at the new RT O'Sullivan's location in Phoenix. Most of you will remember the location as the old site of Gallaghers, where the chapter held gamewatches for many years. (Yes, it is kind confusing, so just make sure you go to the Phoenix location of RT O'Sullivan's on 16th Street between Glendale and Northern.) RTO's will have food and drink specials and this streaming-only game on multiple TVs with audio. As always, friends and family are welcome and please contact Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected] with any questions. Go Eagles!

Join us for the bowl game watch party at a (sort of) new location!

BC football vs. Nebraska (Pinstripe Bowl)
Saturday, December 28, 2024 @ 10 a.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill - Phoenix
7575 N. 16th Street, Phoenix

Yes, you read that right...R.T. O'Sullivan's has moved into the old Gallagher's location on 16th Street in Phoenix, and the BC Phoenix Chapter will check out the new place for this Saturday's gamewatch! BC has a chance to win eight games for the first time since 2009 when the Eagles take on Nebraska in the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium in New York City. The Eagles closed the season strong under new quarterback Grayson James, winning 3 of their final four games. BC will try to keep the momentum going into the offseason by getting a win over the Cornhuskers in the first-ever meeting between the two schools. R.T. O'Sullivan's will have the game on multiple TVs with audio, and will feature food and drink specials for this morning game. Join everyone as we close out 2024! Friends and family are always welcome, and contact Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected] with any questions. (Once again, we'll be in Phoenix on 16th Street just south of Northern...) Go Eagles!

Alumni from the Class of 1967 to 2022 (and everything in between) enjoyed a warm Arizona night on the patio at Camelback Inn last week for the annual Christmas Happy Hour. We welcomed some new friends and many familiar faces and especially enjoyed the return of Chapter Leader Emeritus Marty Ridge and his wife, Lynda. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Join the BC Phoenix Chapter next week for the annual Christmas Happy Hour! We'll gather at Rita's Cantina & Bar at the JW Marriott Camelback Inn to celebrate the season and look forward to 2025!

Spend some of your Thanksgiving weekend with us, and let's see if BC can clinch a winning season and work its way up the bowl pecking order!

BC vs. Pittsburgh
Saturday, November 30 @ 1 p.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill
7919 E. Thomas Road, Scottsdale (southwest corner of Thomas and Hayden)

BC blew out North Carolina last week to get to 6-5 on the season and clinch bowl eligibility, but now the Eagles can work their way up in the bowl pecking order when they take on Pittsburgh in the final regular season game of 2024. Quarterback Grayson James and running back Kye Robichaux teamed up with a stellar BC defense to help BC build a 41-7 lead over North Carolina before the Tar Heels got a couple late scores. The Eagles have now won two of the three games since they made a change at quarterback and will look to end the regular season on a high note. Come join the Phoenix Chapter of the BC Alumni at R.T. O'Sullivan's for the game. R.T. O'Sullivan's will have food and drink specials in effect and have the game on multiple TV screens. The ASU-U of A game and other major games at that time will also be on adjacent TVs for those who want to maximize their football viewing this week. Friends and family are always welcome and please contact Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected] with any questions. Go Eagles!

We're back at O'Sullivan's on Saturday to see if BC can clinch bowl eligibility against North Carolina!

BC vs. North Carolina
Saturday, November 23, 2024 @ 10 a.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill
7919 E. Thomas Road, Scottsdale (southwest corner of Thomas and Hayden)

BC comes home to play North Carolina needing just one win to secure bowl eligibility for the 2024 season. After a rocky week in which quarterback Thomas Castellanos was benched and then decided to quit the team, the Eagles took ACC leader SMU to the wire on the road before falling, 38-28. BC will try to bounce back with new quarterback Grayson James and a solid rushing attack that fared well against SMU's tough run defense and carved up Syracuse two weeks ago. Join the Phoenix Chapter of BC Alumni at R.T. O'Sullivan's for the game. R.T. O'Sullivan's will have brunch as well as other food and drink specials and have the game on multiple TV screens with audio. Friends and family are always welcome and please contact Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected] with any questions. Go Eagles!

See you this Saturday at R.T. O'Sullivan's for the Red Bandanna game against Michigan State!

BC vs. Michigan State
Saturday, September 21 @ 5 p.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill
7919 E. Thomas Road, Scottsdale (southwest corner of Thomas and Hayden)

BC will look to bounce back against Michigan State a week after suffering its first loss of the season. The Eagles watched an early lead slip away last week before falling to top-10 ranked Missouri, 27-21. BC will face another challenge this week as Michigan State comes to Chestnut Hill with a 3-0 record and a win over Maryland. Alumni Stadium is sold out for this nighttime matchup against a tough Big 10 opponent. The game is also BC's annual Red Bandanna Game honoring BC graduate Welles Crowther, who lost his own life while saving the lives of a dozen people during the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Join the Phoenix Chapter of BC Alumni at R.T. O'Sullivan's for this highly-anticipated game. R.T. O'Sullivan's will have food and drink specials in effect and have the game on multiple TV screens with audio. Friends and family are always welcome and please contact Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected] with any questions. Go Eagles!

Great time at the gamewatch! We're back this Saturday night for another one...

Here are all the details for the gamewatch for BC's huge matchup with Missouri!

#24 BC at #6 Missouri
Saturday, September 14, 2024 @ 9:45 a.m. Arizona time
R.T. O'Sullivan's Sports Grill
7919 E. Thomas Road, Scottsdale (southwest corner of Thomas and Hayden)

BC shut down Florida State and then routed Duquesne to get to 2-0 and make the first appearance for the school in the AP Top 25 since 2018. But Bill O'Brien's Eagles will face arguably the toughest game on the schedule this week when they travel to Columbia, Missouri to take on the #6 Missouri Tigers out of the SEC. Last year Missouri went 11-2 (6-2 SEC) and subdued Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl to finish #8 in the final poll of the season. The Tigers return the core of that team in 2024, including receiver Luther Burden, who will potentially be the top wideout selected in the next NFL draft. Come join the fun as the Phoenix Chapter watches the game at R.T. O'Sullivan's in Scottsdale, which will air the game on multiple screens with audio. R.T. O'Sullivan's has food and drink specials and a brunch menu for this morning game. As always, friends and family are welcome and feel free to e-mail Jim Gruber '98 at [email protected] with any questions. Go Eagles!
