Cal Poly Wrestling and Football alumnus, Victor Glover is heading to space! Watch with us live on Saturday, November 14! #calpolyproud #ridehigh #calpolyvarsityclub

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 60 years. On this very day in 1960, we lost 18 members of the Cal Poly Football family in a tragic plane crash. Today, we honor the memory of our fellow Mustangs. Next time you are on campus, be sure to visit Memorial Plaza. Just outside of Alex G. Spanos Stadium stand 18 copper pillars. Each pillar rises to the height of the person honored and is adorned with a plaque about the individual's life. The pillars light up at 9pm every night. An...d when you attend the next home football game, take note as our current players gather under the scoreboard for a moment of silence in memory of their 1960 teammates. Gone, but never forgotten. All Hail Green and Gold May your praises e’er be told Of friendship and of courage And Stalwart sons of old All Hail Green and Gold In your name we shall prevail So to California Polytechnic Hail! Hail! Hail! #mustangsforever #calpolyproud #ridehigh
