Alumni Weekend Live from The Nest
from Juniata Men's Basketball Show · host Thomas Frank, Drew Besket, Greg Curley
We’re live from The Nest (yes… it’s officially called that now 👀) for Alumni Weekend at Juniata—starting with our Wilkes pregame show, a parade of alumni guests, and the long-awaited recap of the 2026 Ed Mansberger Alumni Game. Team Blue and Team Gold went to war in a defensive slugfest that somehow still felt like a track meet emotionally. We break down the chirping, the “fraternizing” scandal in the Catholic student section, and the moment the score finally becomes official. Plus, alumni guests stop by with life updates (new jobs, new towns, weddings, babies, firefighting, nursing, coaching, PA school), predictions for the stretch run, and a whole lot of love for what this program has become. Notes: We had a couple audio hiccups in the postgame segment, so we patched in reflections to wrap the weekend. The in-game audio from the alumni game is (allegedly) missing. We’re not naming names… but we’re also not not naming names.
