Charles Garcia reaches over a Fresno State player on Nov. 19 at KeyArena.

The Redhawks will have to find someone else to shoulder their winning hopes and dreams next season.

Star forward Charles Garica, the Redhawks men’s basketball team’s leading scorer with 18.7 points per game, has said that he plans on declaring for the NBA draft at the end of the season.

The announcement was first posted at Fox News before the official word came in a statement from Seattle U late Monday.

“It has always been a dream of mine to have an opportunity to play in the NBA. I want to thank Seattle University, Coach Dollar, and my teammates for putting me in this position. I also want to thank the city of Seattle for all their love and support,” said Garcia. “We have had an amazing winning season that I hope ends in a postseason tournament.”
