Posted on Jan 1, 2009 10:45 am
Jamaal Trice, a 6-foot-6 shooting guard, committed to UConn on Wednesday.
“It’s a great program with a great coach,” Trice told Mike Anthony of the Hartford Courant. “I just saw myself there. I couldn’t say no, and I couldn’t wait. Even if I waited, I know this is the college I would have chosen.”
Trice, a graduate of Santa Ana (Cal.) Mater Dei, is averaging 26.2 points and 6.3 rebounds for the post-grad team at Mount Zion (N.C.), according to the Charlotte News & Observer.
“He is a fabulous shooter,” Mount Zion coach Stephen Baines told the paper. “The Connecticut coaches believe he can make an immediate contribution.”
