  • Seawolf Basketball Highlights of the Last Basketball Games Played at the Wells Fargo Sports Complex February 22, 2014
    Seawolf Basketball Highlights of the Last Basketball Games Played at the Wells Fargo Sports Complex February 22, 2014 Photography by John R. DeLapp The Last Basketball Games at Wells Fargo Sports Complex My wife Tina and I have been loyal followers of UAA sports and have admired the accomplishments of all the talented student-athletes on and off the court and rink for many years. I have also enjoyed occasionally taking pictures at the home games in the Wells Fargo Sports Complex from my seat in the bleachers. The men’s and women’s Senior Night double-header on February 22, 2014 were the last two basketball games to be played at the Sports Complex as the new area, the Alaska Airlines Center, will become the home for the Seawolves beginning in the fall of 2014. I decided to produce a mini-magazine to share some of the highlights of those last two games and the “send-off at the Farg”. I hope you enjoy the pictures and the memories of that exciting evening when two great basketball games were played and we witnessed a historic shooting performance by Kyle Fossman, as new UAA and GNAC records were established.
