University hosts celebration rally for women’s basketball team April 20

The university community is invited to attend a celebration rally for the national-champion women’s basketball team from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. Monday, April 20, in Bauman Auditorium. Former Portland Trail Blazer Jerome Kersey and George Fox alumnus Eric Lautenbach, director of college basketball sports marketing at Nike, are scheduled to appear. Newberg Mayor Bob Andrews will proclaim April 20 as “George Fox University Bruins Women’s Basketball Day” in Newberg.

The event will include a video recap of the season and an introduction of Head Coach Scott Rueck and the 14 players who, improbably, stormed to a 32-0 season and George Fox’s first national basketball title.

The rally is part of a full day of celebration activities. For details on the events scheduled, see the university’s website.
