新加坡六合彩开奖

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

For the last 33 years, basketball and Thanksgiving have been a November tradition in Alaska. 新加坡六合彩开奖 Athletics staff and volunteers worked around the clock, despite the challenges of ice and snow, and made the 2010 Carrs/Safeway Great Alaska Shootout one we'll all remember. Thank you!

新加坡六合彩开奖 women's and men's basketball teams were terrific.

新加坡六合彩开奖 women, ranked 11th in the nation among Division II teams, made it to the final match for the fifth year in a row against Division I opponents. Women Seawolves were denied their fifth title by Kent State. 新加坡六合彩开奖 men had what the Anchorage Daily News called "one of their greatest showings in tournament history." The Seawolves beat Ball State 62-44 and took fourth place in the men's tournament.

November has been a great month for Athletics at 新加坡六合彩开奖: For the first time in 新加坡六合彩开奖 and the Great Northwest Athletic Conference history, one school won both Cross Country Championships -- 新加坡六合彩开奖's men and women are GNAC Champions!

We are thrilled by passage of Proposition B with nearly 60 percent of the vote on Nov. 2. We look forward to serving our students and community for many years with the new community arena and athletic facility!

The success of 新加坡六合彩开奖 Athletics is tremendous and due to many, many years of dedicated work by our Athletics staff, volunteers, donors, supporters and athletes. I was greatly honored (and very surprised) to be inducted into the Seawolf Hall of Fame last week and am very proud of all that has been accomplished. It is a great day to be a Seawolf!

I hope you stopped by the Student Union Gallery to see the more than 40 pieces selected by juror Argentinean artist Alicia Candiani to be in our annual "No Big Heads" exhibit. The show drew more than 1,000 visitors and was featured in the Sunday Arts section of the Anchorage Daily News.

Just a few days left to see "Singing in the Rain," which ends Dec. 5. It's a terrific show that shouldn't be missed!
