The 2020 features 21 returners from a squad that went 32-16 last year and will open up the season the following day with an exhibition game against Olympic College. Several alums from the past decades in addition to possibly a few former coaches, have either already confirmed or are expected to attend. The buffet dinner with a New York Strip Loin carving station will feature speakers from several of the decades and a preview of the upcoming season and players. Please join us to celebrate one of the most-storied athletic programs in the NWAC, with over 100 players who have been signed to professional contracts and scholarships to over 100 different universities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2020\/02\/50th-Anniv.-Dinner-Program.pdf\">50th Anniv.
