Homecoming Fall in Love with the Foxes

First-Ever ALIHS Homecoming Weekend

The Foxes are hosting… and Gilbert le Renard is taking center court.

This is not a quiet debut. This is the first-ever ALIHS Homecoming — built like a game-day spectacle: Spirit Week energy, a Friday night dance, a Saturday court presentation and crowning, and a post-game celebration where both schools and both fanbases are welcome.

Gilbert le Renard isn’t just the mascot — he’s the heartbeat of the Foxes. Tall. Confident. Unmistakable. Just like the young men who wear the jersey, Gilbert steps into the Homecoming spotlight as the ultimate showman, the energy leader, and the symbol of Fox pride.
