Head coach Andrew Baker is very excited about the commitment of these two players, “We are excited to have both Seamus and Cody join our program.  These guys are proven scorers, proven winners, and we are already better next year with them on our roster. These are two very good recruits for the program and I can’t wait for them to be on campus and be part of the MMC community.”

O’Malley, the son of Pat and Colleen, is undecided in his major and will receive an academic honors scholarship in addition to his basketball award.  Willett, son of Dale and Julie, plans to major in math at MMC and will be receiving an academic merit scholarship in addition to his basketball award.
