The Seawolves men’s basketball team was defeated by the Saint Martin's University Saints, 57-56, on Feb. 28 to close out their regular season. While the Saints held the lead throughout the first half, the Seawolves managed to make a comeback and gain the lead until a last second shot from the Saints took the game. This game also marked the end of an era as it was the final home game for Rusty Osborne after 22 years as the Seawolves’ head coach.
Before the game, the Seawolves honored their graduating players Bishop Tosi, Akok Machar, Jaren Miller, John McFadden, Hasaan Herrington, Jesse Stines and Zach Ibbetson.
The Seawolves finish the regular season 20-9 in NCAA play and 12-6 in the GNAC and head to the GNAC championship semifinals on March 6.
