Although not a West Point graduate, or a Veteran himself, head coach Mike Macdonald is inspired to respect and honor our service members, Veterans, and their families, as his father served in the Army and graduated from the United States Military Academy, Army West Point.
Having been with the Seahawks since February, Macdonald has shown his respect and care for the military community. During the offseason Macdonald and the entire team took a trip to Joint Base Lewis-McChord for team building and engagement with 1-2 Styker Brigade Combat Team. Macdonald also has invited the U.S. Navy’s flight demonstration squadron, the Blue Angels, to practice and to speak to the team.
