Men's Basketball inks Sturns for upcoming 2007-08 academic year (5/17/2007) PHILADELPHIA – Holy Family Head Men’s Basketball Coach Alfred Johnson has announced that Michael Sturns has signed with the Tigers for the 2007-08 season. Sturns will transfer to Holy Family from the University of North Texas. Sturns, a 6-5 point guard from Fort Worth, Texas, was the top scoring sixth man in the Sun Belt Conference last season for the Mean Green. Sturns averaged 12.1 points per game and 3.9 rebounds per contest while at North Texas, helping the team advance to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament. He scored a career-high 28 points in a loss to the University of New Orleans on December 16. During the 2005-06 season, Sturns played in 18 of the first 19 games, scoring in double figures nine times during the span. While at North Crowley High School, Sturns was a McDonald’s All-America nominee and an all-state nominee as he averaged 18.3 points per game. “Sturns is a big, quick scoring point guard that will help our program,” Johnson said. Holy Family finished 19-9 last season, finishing in a three-way tie atop the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference. |
