#88SSY Check-Ins: Alex Glover, Seattle Seawolves

By Charles Hamaker

Seattle, WA - The Seattle Sports Star of the Year Awards, hosted by the Seattle Sports Commission, are the place to be for all things Seattle sports and their accomplishments on and off the field of play. Whether that be professionally or collegiately, the awards show features the biggest athletes, media, and sports personality to grace the Pacific Northwest from the past, the present, and the future. Converge Media and Circling Seattle Sports were on site at the Westin Downtown Seattle to get the sights and sounds of the night, including six sit-downs with athletes from differing teams, and a separate sit down with a mascot. The first one features Seattle Seawolves hooker Alex Glover, who plays on the front line in rugby for Seattle’s professional franchise.

Glover hails from the Bay Area and is now only in his second year with the organization, so this awards show was a brand new environment for the Saint Mary’s College alumni. Previously playing for the Los Angeles Giltinis, a team that is currently suspended from operations due to sanctions from the league, Glover is still getting the lay of the land here in the Emerald City. Teammate and Team USA member Martin Iosefo, who was actually presenting an award at the event, brought Glover along to “Washington Sports legendary Heaven” so that he could get a better idea of the community and the different members of the Seattle sports area. Safe to say when he’s not helping the Seawolves pursue their third MLR Shield, Glover now has a better feel for what this cities sports scene is like.
