Traditional Homecoming returns for fall 2021 Posted By: News Editor April 1, 2021 Gage Johnson gjohnson@murraystate.edu While a number of Murray State traditions have been affected by COVID-19, Homecoming will go on as typically scheduled in the fall during the 2021-22 Murray State football season. The event has been tentatively scheduled for Saturday, October 30, against Tennessee State University. Director of Alumni Relations Carrie McGinnis said each year they have to take into account the Racers’ football schedule along with scheduling Family Weekend in order to pick the correct date. After considering all the options, it was decided upon to keep the event as traditional as possible by having it in October.
