Brockman, Son of Former Falcon, Commits for Basketball
June 10, 2004

SEATTLE (June 10) – Paul Brockman, an all-Wesco guard from Snohomish, will follow his father’s footsteps and play basketball for Seattle Pacific University next season.

The 6-foot-5 Brockman, who missed his senior season due to a knee injury, averaged 18 points and eight rebounds as a junior for the Panthers, when they won the league and finished seventh in the state 4A tournament. He made the all-state tournament team.

Paul’s father, Gordy Brockman, was a center and key player for Seattle Pacific from 1973-76. During that time he was a teammate of Len Bone, current Snohomish High School coach and older brother of former SPU head coach Ken Bone.

The Falcons, who have made the NCAA Division II tournament five of the past seven years, were 14-13 under Jeff Hironaka this season. Seattle Pacific lost only one senior and returns all five starters.
