It is Homecoming Week at Stanford, and thousands of alumni are expected to return to The Farm to revisit, recall and reminisce on one of the most important periods of their lives. The programs of Stanford Athletics are no different, and will welcome back scores of alumni who have proudly worn the cardinal and white in competition.
