Santiago Canyon College Basketball

Santiago Canyon College hosted its first Alumni Game on January 3, 2026 welcoming back former Hawks for a competitive and entertaining night. SCC came away with a 102–97 victory after trailing early, storming back to build a comfortable lead before a late push by the alumni made for an exciting finish. Alumni participants included Isaiah Arthurton (2024), Eli Arthurton (2025), Damien Parker (2024), AJ Garrity (2020), Jordan Holden (2019), Paulo Araujo (2020), Dane Kiefer (2024), Josh Griffin (2022), Drew Yezbak (2022), David Agba (2022), Randall Walker (2020), and Rocket Henderson (2018). The game was played in a fun, competitive spirit and served as a great opportunity to reconnect past and present Hawks, with the program planning to make the alumni game a tradition moving forward.
