Bearcat Awards
2024 INFORMATION NOW AVAILABLE!
The Bearcat Award is the highest honor given in the name of Homecoming participation. This award recognizes teams of Students, Residence Hall-sponsored teams, and/or Registered Student Organizations that take an active and spirited part in Homecoming Week. The prizes for winning will be as follows: First Place: $200, Second Place: $150, Third Place: $100. Bearcat Award points are earned through attendance and participation in activities during the week’s events. Winners will be announced during the Homecoming Football game on Saturday, October 12.
All events require a completed participation form. Forms are due BY October 4. Teams
that register after October 4 will not be eligible for prices but may still participate.
Smaller Registered Student Organizations are encouraged to pair up with another organization
to compete in the games.
If you are a Registered Student Organization (RSO), it would be advisable to update
your group’s information online. Use either the renewal/update form. A student organization pairing cannot exceed
two organizations.
Winners of the event will be posted on this page, and the overall winners will be
announced during the Homecoming Football Game. Awards will be presented to category
winners and the overall winner following Homecoming week.
