One of Baylor’s longstanding traditions returned for another year of on-campus fun as students flocked to Fountain Mall to enjoy food, games, activities and a concert from artist Joshua Bassett.

While it may be allergy season, another time of year is quietly creeping in — kitten season. Typically spanning from early spring to late fall, kitten season marks a surge in feline births, leading to a significant influx of newborn kittens and mother cats at shelters and rescues.

For the first time in 338 days, sophomore left-handed pitcher Mason Green trotted out of the Baylor baseball dugout and started for the green and gold in Tuesday night’s 6-2 loss against Texas State at Baylor Ballpark.

Attractions, free food and spring weather filled Fountain Mall during the university’s annual Diadeloso event on Tuesday. The student and partner-staffed event sported state fair games, goat yoga and a concert at Waco Hall featuring Joshua Bassett.
