St. Mary's College of Maryland Alumni

⚾Start the evening at AGUA 301 MODERN MEXICAN at 5 p.m. for a casual pregame gathering with fellow Seahawks and the Alumni Relations team. From there, head into Nationals Park to watch the Nats take on the Angels alongside alumni, families and friends.

We’ll be seated together in the Scoreboard Pavilion Seating, Section 237, making it easy to connect and enjoy the game as a group. This is our first Nationals outing in over a decade, and while the home team has less than a 1% chance of making the playoffs, we like our chances of having a good time.
