“Moustapha had a tremendous two-year career at Sheridan before moving on to the University of San Francisco,” Sheridan College head coach Steve Smiley said. “He was a blessing for our program as we transitioned into a new coaching staff between his freshman & sophomore years. Moustapha helped lead us through that transition and had a great sophomore year, being named as an NJCAA All-American and helping to lead his team to a 26-win season and a spot in the Region 9 Final Four. We’re very proud of his accomplishments at the University of San Francisco and now as he gets an opportunity to play basketball at the highest level. Moose is not only a great basketball player, but is also a great person, and will hopefully play for many years in the professional ranks.”

Diarra turned in a strong senior campaign for the USF Dons, averaging 7.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game. An excellent low post scorer, Diarra ranked seventh among West Coast Conference field goal percentage leaders converting on .498 (111-223) from the field.

“I have really enjoyed playing in the United States,” Diarra said. “It was a really good experience to be in another country on my own; I learned a lot of things during my 4 years in America. The time playing at Sheridan has really prepared me well to play professionally, I learned to play the game harder and have endured many tough challenges along the way.”

Pau-Orthez is one of the top clubs in France and plays in Pro A (top division). The club owns a league-best seven Pro A Championships. The Pro A season starts in September and runs through May.

Sheridan College Head Coach Steve Smiley has announced today the signing of Las Vegas guard Victor Bermudez to a national letter of intent. Bermudez, a 6’4 175 pound guard played last season at University Park Academy Prep last year in Houston.

Coach Smiley had this to say about Victor: “We’re very excited to get a player of Victor’s caliber this late in the recruiting process. Over the past several days, we realized that we might need to sign one more player and that is exactly when Victor became available. Victor is a good-sized, athletic guard with a high skill level that can play anywhere from the 1-3 guard positions. We saw Victor during the Las Vegas AAU Tournament in July when he played for 24-7 Hoops, and Head Coach Pat Amico. He has a chance to be a special player here at Sheridan and at the next level, as well. We’re excited to get him out here and start working with him right away.”

Cadot Shines In FIBA Caribbean Basketball Confederation Championship

Cadot and his squad battled Jamaica in an overtime win in the semi-final game of the tournament for a chance to face the U.S. Virgin Islands in the championship game. Cadot finished the game with a double-double, tallying 13 points and 12 rebounds, ensuring the Bahamian team a spot in the upcoming Centrobasket Tournament.

Cadot fueled a second-half comeback as the Bahamas faced a 20 point deficit going into halftime. Cadot led his team in scoring with 22 points, while going 4-6 (66.7%) from deep, and grabbing 7 rebounds. A Silver Medal for the Bahamas is the highest finish that the team has earned in the tournament since they won Gold in 1995.

For the tournament Cadot impressed by showing his consistency averaging 10.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per contest, garnering him a spot on the All-Tournament Team. When asked about his experience, Cadot said that, “playing for the Bahamas national basketball team sparked a fire in me to not only dominate this year for my Senior season in college, but to do the little things that I have to as a Senior in order to finally bring a Mountain West Basketball Championship to TCU”

Aaron also graduated #1 in his class academically as he held a cumulative 4.0 GPA and lettered in football for 3 years. Aaron will bring toughness and leadership on and off the court.
Coach Smiley's thoughts: "Aaron is a great addition to our program. He really impressed us late this spring when he came up to work out. He was more advanced as a player than I had previously realized, and we're very happy to have him next year. We see Aaron competing for minutes at our small forward position. He had a great spring, representing the state in a sweep of the South Dakota and Montana All-Stars, scoring in double-figures in all four of those games (the only Wyoming player to do that). He has a chance to be a very good player for us."

Midwest PG Signs With Sheridan College

Coach Smiley has never recruited from the Kansas City area before, but was very happy to see RJ still around during the summer.

Coach Smiley on RJ: "We're really excited to have RJ's commitment to play for us next year. Coach Davis did a great job in initially focusing on RJ and developing a relationship with him. RJ had a great visit to campus and we were all really impressed with RJ as a player and more importantly, as a person. He has a chance to be a really good player at our level, and I truly believe he will move on to the Division 1 level after his time at Sheridan if he continues to work hard and develop his body and his overall game."

SC Generals sign elite East Coast Guard, Wayne Bradford!

Sheridan College Men's Basketball Coach Steve Smiley is proud to announce today the signing of Baltimore, MD native Wayne Bradford. The 6'3", 185 pound guard will come to Sheridan from the east cost where he played basketball for Roanoke Catholic High School in Virginia and legendary coach Bill Hodges (Former Head Coach at Indiana State).

Sheridan College will welcome Wayne Bradford to campus when the school year begins in August.

Coach Smiley had this to say about Wayne: "We're really excited to have Wayne join our team for next year. Wayne is not only a really good player, but a good student as well. Realistically, he should be at a D1 school right now, but a few things fell through for Wayne, and we were able to get involved with him late in the process. Wayne played for a great high school coach and also played for one of the top AAU programs on the East Coast when he played for the East Coast Fusion and Head Coach Cade Lemcke. Wayne is a very versatile player that is naturally a scoring guard, but could also play the point or the small forward if needed. He will really help us out for next year."

As Don Meyer's Head Assistant a couple years ago, Dan learned so much in terms of coaching the right way, and his experiences in Georgia at a great program (Georgia College) will also help out tremendously.

Our #1 priority in the upcoming class was to find a pass-first point guard that would make his teammates better, and we also wanted to find a guard that had the ability to put tremendous pressure on the ball on the defensive end. Donald fits the mold exactly. He's a very good athlete, has a great feel for the game and for getting his teammates involved, and should be a great defensive player. His main goal, in terms of player improvement, is to improve on his jump shot from the perimeter.
