UA Cossatot Men's and Women’s Basketball
Tryouts This Saturday
UA Cossatot is making plans and preparations for basketball season as Coach Brad Phillips begins selecting team players. On Saturday, May 4, 2019, the college will be holding men and women’s basketball tryouts at the UA Cossatot Historic Bank of Lockesburg Gymnasium.

The Student Services department will also be at the gymnasium on Saturday for those who are trying out to seek college information. Current and future students interested in playing basketball at UA Cossatot can ask questions, learn about the admissions process, learn how to register for classes, and find out about academic requirements while playing basketball at UA Cossatot.
