Miko (tan hat) and Steds "glitterati"
...starts today, but for the seniors of St. Ed's, it started on Saturday with a trip to Churchill Downs. Yes, in keeping with tradition, Steds seniors were in attendance for the 142nd running of the Kentucky Derby. With sunshine, bowties, and mint juleps, how could our Stedsmen lose? On attending the Derby, Miko Malabute, Steds senior, said, "I actually went to Churchill Downs my sophomore year during fall break, but the difference between then and now is like night and day. The smell of ponies (both good and bad) was in the air, and folks were dressed to impressed, all came together to make for a life-long experience. Thank goodness that my mom helped me pick out what to wear so I could blend right in!" Thanks mom indeed!
