Wellesley College hoop rolling tradition rolls on

 

Riley McNair, an art history major and soccer player Wellesley College, earlier this month beat the field—many breaking in their commencement gowns—at the 130th annual hoop rolling competition.

The event takes place at Tupelo Lane, and the winner gets dunked in Lake Waban to celebrate.According to the school, “the winner will be the first to achieve happiness and success, whatever that means to” that individual.
