Steve Raible, voice of the Seahawks, will host this event
for college basketball fans as Dollar and Romar preview the annual match-up
between the teams. The breakfast and panel discussion will be moderated by Steve
Raible, co-anchor of KIRO 7 Eyewitness News and play-by-play voice of the
Seattle Seahawks on 710 ESPN Seattle, also the home of Seattle U men's
basketball broadcasts. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit
Boys & Girls Clubs of King County.
The relationship between Dollar
and Romar goes back to the mid-1990s, when Romar, then an assistant coach,
recruited Dollar to UCLA, where they helped the Bruins win the 1995 NCAA
Championship at The Kingdome in Seattle. Romar added Dollar to his staff when he
became the head coach at Saint Louis University in 1999, and the two coaches
came to the University of Washington in 2002, where Dollar was a top assistant
under Romar before becoming Seattle U's head coach in April 2009. The Seattle
University men's basketball team will head across town to face the Washington
Huskies Thursday, Dec. 13, at KeyArena.
Breakfast will run from 7:00 a.m. to
8:30 a.m. in the Metropolitan Room and Reception Area at the Sheraton Seattle
Hotel, located at 1400 6th Avenue. Doors open at 6:30 a.m.
