Faith, Family, Football: The Greif 5

A bench outside the Goergen Athletic Center stands as a memorial to the man who discovered the University for his three children.
The sun set in the distance as Braden Greif ’24 and his father, Scott, drove away from the University of Rochester on a warm June evening in 2019. Braden had enjoyed an overnight visit hosted by the varsity football team, and father and son spent hours touring the River Campus. Now, they were heading toward the airport for a flight home to Houston, Texas.
“We discussed how it was, and the people that stood out and made the difference there,” Braden recalls. “The vibe we got was that winning was a mindset at Rochester, ingrained in every aspect of college life.”
Scott then said what both were thinking: “I think this might be the school for you, Braden.” That evening, he told his wife, Michelle, “There’s something special about that place.”
Braden will graduate in May with a bachelor’s degree in finance. Siblings Nina Greif ’25 and Hudson Greif ’27 followed him to Rochester. Nina is majoring in bioethics, and Hudson in health, behavior and society. The three are here with heavy hearts: In June 2021, their father died of colon cancer. He was 53.
“It was our dad who discovered Rochester,” Nina says. “But he never got to enjoy seeing us all there.”
Scott Greif is memorialized with a bench installed outside the Goergen Athletic Center, a gift from friends of the family. The commemorative gold plaque reads:
I have fought the good fight
I have finished the race,
I have kept the faith.
