Thank You Seattle University Supporters!

CYO Athletics wants to thank everyone who came out to support Seattle University's opening night at Key Arena. The arena was full of energy and spirit, thanks in part to the CYO teams who came and cheered. The men's basketball team came out victorious against Fresno State 85-84.

The Redhawks rallied from down 81-75 with 1:40 left.

Seattle took an 83-82 lead on Garrett Lever’s follow of Aaron Broussard’s miss with 37.6 seconds left, Lever’s only basket of the game. Fresno State’s Greg Smith responded with a layup at the other end with 24 seconds left. Cervante’ Burrell scored on a baseline reverse with 8.3 seconds left, then came up with a steal on the final Fresno State possession.

CYO Athletics' Associate Athletic Director Clint Richardson was honored at halftime with a ceremony that consisted of the 29 greatest players in Seattle University history. It truly was a special night, and Seattle can give a proud "Welcome Back" to the city's Division I Catholic basketball team.

Remember, CYO Athletics, through our partnership with Seattle University, has special priviledges to provide tickets to any CYO teams interested in coming out and supporting this young, exciting team. Simply shoot an e-mail to scott.bailey@seattlearch.org if you are interested in getting a group together for any of the weekend games this season. View the schedule at http://www.goseattleu.com/

Basketball Schedules have been Updated

As we warned last week, once the schedules get posted, we often have to go back and make some changes afterwards, and it is always unfortunate when that happens (but also kind of inevitable)

PLEASE RE-CHECK YOUR SCHEDULES!!

Most divisions have been at least somewhat affected by the changes, so everyone should go back and make sure they know where and when they play.

Specifically, if you are in the following divisions, your schedules have been altered:

4th Grade Girls North, 4th Grade Boys North, 4th Grade Boys East - all three of these divisions had HFK home games previously at St. Brendan, but moved back home to HFK.

6th Grade Boys North and 7th Grade girls AAA - both divisions had to have a team added that missed getting put into the schedule during the first go-around. Most teams were affected.

6th Grade Boys Southeast - St. Joseph Issaquah could not get enough players to field their team, and unfortunately we cannot completely re-make that schedule without impacting most schedules at most gyms and all othe divisions. As a result, teams will recieve a forfeit "win" for each week they are scheduled against this team.
