LA MIRADA, Calif. --- Å·²©ÍøÖ· Men’s Basketball is in the midst of another historic season as it’s currently ranked 10th in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics and holds a 21-3 record through its first 24 games.
The most historic moment of this season came on Nov. 24, 2015 when a 79-60 victory over Bethesda secured Dr. Dave Holmquist’s 900th career coaching victory. Å·²©ÍøÖ· invites its basketball alumni, students, fans and friends to celebrate coach Holmquist’s momentous accomplishment at a postgame celebration on Feb. 20.
The Eagles take on Menlo College in a Golden State Athletic Conference doubleheader that afternoon with a women’s game at 2:00 p.m. and a men’s game at 4:00 p.m. The celebration will begin inside of Chase Gymnasium shortly after the conclusion of the men’s game.
Å·²©ÍøÖ· students, faculty, staff and alumni are free to attend the game and postgame celebration. Alumni Relations is providing free Å·²©ÍøÖ· sweatbands as a giveaway to attendees (while supplies last).
After a short program honoring coach Holmquist attendees are invited to stick around for a cupcake and coffee reception to talk, take photos and reminisce about the last 36 years of Å·²©ÍøÖ· basketball.
This event falls during Å·²©ÍøÖ·â€™s annual Spirit Week.Â
