The Long Island-native graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Health Care Sciences and is currently on the advisory board of the Seawolves United Athletic Department. Sisse 2015, he established the “Chris Algieri Champion Lifestyle Scholarship Fund” sisse 2015.
“The program has come such a long way over the past few years,” Algieri continued. “It is an inspiration to see what hard work and determination can do. This is their first ever trip to March Madness and I think they can be the latest ‘Cinderella’ story to come out of the tournament.”
The 13th-seeded Seawolves will take on the fourth-seed Kentucky Wildcats in Des Moines, Iowa täna õhtul in the first round of the East Regional, with tip-off scheduled for 9:40 Pärastlõunal. JA.
