“My time at Highline meant having an
 opportunity to become a better player and
 most importantly a better person in general.
 Being at Highline you understand the concept
 of family as the words on the back of our shirts
 say “Together.” You learn to believe in
 something a lot bigger than just yourself. You
 are a part of a team that has a reputation to be a winner; losing is not taken easily. You learn life skills that you will be able to apply in the real world. You learn to truly understand what a student-athlete should be. You are required to perform at a high level on the basketball court and in the classroom. Highline taught me a lot and for that I will be forever thankful. Highline means a lot to my development as a man and a basketball player; that is why Highline is one of the best basketball programs in the NWAACC. I just want to say thanks to Coach Dawson, the coaching staff and my teammates that I’ve had for all your support. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of a great program like Highline.”

 spent at Highline were an excellent stepping
 stone to get to the next level and to prepare me
 for my future. To all the coaching staff, thank you for the time you devoted to our success, the motivation you gave, and a great two years.” Dan Young ‘10

“My team at Highline meant a lot to me. It was like a brotherhood in which every member shared the same goals.

"I spent two and a half years at Highline and throughout that time I learned more about life issues than I even realized I did. Through being part of the basketball team I learned the true meaning of togetherness and teamwork. Meeting and interacting with all of the diverse people educated me on things I couldn't learn from reading a textbook. The professors also helped bring out my potential and actually made me believe I had some. It was a completely rewarding experience that I would never take back but would love to do all over again."
