LSU’s 2024 Homecoming King Brian Gage celebrates his new title as King in Tiger Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 12, 2024, in Baton Rouge, La.

There’s new royalty in town. LSU crowned its 2024 Homecoming king and queen during halftime of the Ole Miss game Saturday evening.

LSU’s student body was tasked with voting between 12 senior candidates, all of whom were evaluated by LSU staff before being named to the court. The election was held via Tigerlink and all LSU students were welcome to cast a vote.

Of the 12 candidates, the students elected Brian Gage to serve as king and Camille Cronin to serve as queen. Gage is a senior marketing major with a minor in advertising and entrepreneurship. Cronin is a political science major with a minor in history.
The theme of this year’s homecoming was “100 Years of Tiger Stadium,” an ode to the culture and memories formed in Death Valley. LSU’s 2024 Homecoming king and queen, along with the week of events leading up to Saturday night, are now cemented in Tiger Stadium history.

About the Contributor

Chloe Richmond, Digital Editor

Why did you join the Reveille?

I wanted to push myself outside of my comfort zone. Considering I never shared my writing throughout high school, I’d say the Reveille has aided me well.

What positions have you held at the Reveille?

I was a sports reporter for three semesters. I covered beach volleyball and volleyball.

What's your favorite thing about working at the Reveille?

Aside from the rewarding feeling of seeing my byline on the Internet and in print, my favorite thing about working at the Reveille hands down is the community. I love my cool writer friends.

What's your favorite story that you've written so far?

Everyone will tell you that I’m the biggest Nebraska volleyball fan, so naturally, my favorite story is my comparison between LSU and Nebraska volleyball. A couple of honorable mentions go out to my 2023 SEC volleyball breakdown and the profile I did on former LSU volleyball player Josie Vondran.

What do you hope to do after graduation?

I want to work in the Big Ten conference on the women's volleyball beat (if you couldn't guess). My ideal situation would involve me generating feature/profile stories that highlight athletes as people beyond their sport.
