“Jermaine is a very talented and explosive player and he is very unique in that he has a great skill set for a player of his size. Jermaine could play anywhere from a small forward to a post player-type of position, but he’s naturally a small forward that can play both on the perimeter and in the post, and he will have the ability to be a huge asset on the defensive end of the floor because of his size, quickness, and overall athleticism.

To be the team leader in points, rebounds, and steals and 2nd in assists on a team that won the Northern California State Title and lost in the CIF State Title in the biggest classification in the state is very impressive. Khion had a great senior year, capped off by scoring 25 points and 10 rebounds in the State Championship game vs Westchester, which has 5 NCAA D1 signees, and he produced at that level against some of the best competition in the state throughout the year.

General finish Regular Season 24-6!

After earning the right to host the Region IX tournament on the 23rd the Sheridan College men’s basketball team had one last challenge facing them. It was to close out the regular season on the road at Western Wyoming at a very hostile environment. It was sophomore night and Labor Union Worker appreciation day at WWCC but the Generals took care of business and came home with a 94-83 victory. Sheridan jumped out to an early 13 point lead which was reduced to 6 at halftime but they quickly jumped out of the gates in the second half to push the lead back to double digits and coasted home from there. JR Cadot led the Generals with 20 points, Jarrell Crayton added 14, Sam Iwueke came off the bench to chip in 13 points, Idris Lasisi added 12 and Steven Ivory Jr. had 10 points. SC shot 60% from the field for the game and was +6 on the boards.

Generals win North Sub Region 9 Championship!

Must watch this clip! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCGaCt_hgMs

In one of the most exciting 14-point games on record, Sheridan (23-6, 7-1) grabbed a share of first place in Region 9’s North Sub-Region with a 104-90 victory at home against Northwest (Wyo.) College (22-6, 7-1). The excitement was generated by the sub-region tie-breaker system which forced the Generals to not only win the game, but by a margin of at least 14 points to earn the right to host the Region 9 Tournament. The task seemed imminently possible when Sheridan charged out to a 56-37 advantage at halftime, hitting 60% of its shots from the field (24/40). The Generals continued to hold a lead near the 20-point mark until Northwest began to drill a series of three-pointers, gradually reducing the deficit until pulling within 12 at 99-87 inside the two-minute mark. Suddenly, the game went from a double-digit lark to an intense nail-biting situation. When Northwest converted the second of two free throws with 15.7 seconds left, Sheridan was still up 102-90 but needed to score a bucket to host the tournament. With two seconds remaining, Jarrell Crayton was fouled and went to the line for a one-and-one, where he missed the opening toss. However, the ball bounced out to the center of the lane over the outreached hands of the two Trapper interior men and was tipped by a high-leaping J.R. Cadot. The ball bounced once and fell in at the buzzer. The put-back gave the 6-5 sophomore a career-high 32 points which he produced, by hitting 13 of 17 shots from the field, including all three of his trey attempts. Cadot also added 13 rebounds, seven on the offensive end, five assists with only one turnover, and one blocked shot. The outstanding performance under pressure circumstances was even more remarkable considering he had been notified just before game time that his father had passed away back home in the Bahamas. Omar McDade chipped in with 18 points, Jarrell Crayton added 17 and Idris Lassisi had 10 points, 8 assists, and 5 rebounds.

The Generals finished the Jamboree with a 3-1 record.... On Sunday, the Generals were back on the road to face Black Hills State University and South Dakota School of Mines, to good NAIA schools. The Generals split halves with both teams and competed well. It was exciting to finally see our guys in action against some new competition. We have a lot to work on, but there are a lot of positives. We have a chance to have a special team if we continue to commit to constant improvement in practice every day! Until next time...

Idris Lasisi signs Letter of Intent to play for Generals!

Sheridan College Generals Men’s Basketball coach Steve Smiley is proud to announce that Idris Lasisi, a 6’2”, 195 shooting guard from Leuven, Belgium, has signed a National Letter of Intent to play for the Generals for the 2009-10 season. Lasisi, who graduated from Sint-Pieterscollege high school in Leuven, will be a freshmen for the Generals this year.
Coach Smiley had the following to say about Idris: “We are very pleased to get a player of Idris’s caliber so late in the summer. We originally thought that we were done recruiting, but when we had a chance to get involved with Idris’s recruitment a couple of weeks ago, we tried everything possible to get him enrolled for the fall semester. We were fortunate that he was able to get his student visa so quickly from the U.S. Embassy and get here in time for the start of classes…. Idris’s main qualities are his physical presence, skill level, and great feel for the game. He is able to stretch opposing defenses with his shooting ability, and he should be a lock-down defender for us once he gets acclimated to our style of play. He had a very productive summer in the Belgian Pro-Am league and he has a chance to be a very special player for us in the future.”
