Baloo is on a strict diet in Serra Manor, where he lives with his parents, Chuck and Deb Seifert. That's why on hot summer days, Baloo loves it when his "cool aunt," Erin Pendergast '25, takes him out for ice cream. The two best friends also spend time together advocating for dogs who need homes.

It was after midnight and Brandon Gruttemeyer '27 was sound asleep when a co-worker barged into his bedroom, hysterical and pleading for help.

And what he did next, saved a man's life.

Gabriela Jimenez '26 has been attending soccer matches at Red Bull Arena for as long as Red Bull Arena has existed (2010).

This summer, she was on the sidelines.
