Coach’s comments & notes: Terrell is a young man that can play both the 1 and 2. He’s athletic as they come and can get to the rim whenever he wants. Terrell also turns up the heat on the defensive end of the court. Another player that fits the NEW PANTHER mold!

Coach’s comments & notes: JJ is a lefty point guard that understands when to go and when not to. JJ is a workhorse and a leader by example.

Coach’s comments & notes: He is a big point guard that sees things happening before most people know what’s going on. He passes extremely well and can score off the bounce whenever he wants.

Don't know of many players out there that work as hard as Mark. He is the type of kid all coaches would love to coach and as you can see he has the best smile on the team!

Ht.: 6'6

Wt.: 205

Pos.: F

Hometown: Gary, IN

High school: Westside HS

Coach’s comments & notes: Delray is 6’6 with a 7’2 wingspan. He's a big time jumper that dunks for power not style. He will be the clean-up man that controls the paint with his ability to block shots and rebound. I expect Delray to emerge as a leader as the season progresses! He is the new definition of a Panther Basketball Player!

Pos.: F

Hometown: Atchison, KS

High school: Atchison, HS

Coach’s comments & notes: Mark is hungry!!! He’s a transfer from Butler Co. who I recruited strongly when I was at Pratt but lost to the Butler football program. Now motivated to play basketball Mark will give us strength and big time athleticism at the forward spot. Mark blocks shots and will be huge on the glass! He is a true clean-up guy. We will expect Mark to step into a leadership spot very soon!
