2009 Alumni Face Off

Erin Moriarty '77 was the winner of the inaugural Alumni Face Off. This fall, six Moritz alumni – from graduating years in the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s – squared off against each other and Moritz Dean Alan Michaels.

Moriarty emerged from her peers by impressively picking all seven of the college football matchups correctly. She only failed to correctly predict the winner of the MLB World Series.

“I’m thrilled,” said Moriarty, a correspondent for CBS' 48 Hours, “but I still feel bad that I won by choosing USC (where my son is in school) over my beloved Buckeyes.”
