Into the 16 and challenging for minutes: John Morgan, Sam Chambers, Jordan Bohannon and Adam Henderson, all played for Team Durham Wildcats last season and if your maths work 4 + 4 + 8 - which players take us to 16? maybe these 5 new signings? |

Colm Hickey 6'3'' Guard Loughborough |
Chris Pearce 6'4'' Guard Northumbria |
||
Graham Pape 6 ' 8'' Forward Tyne Met |

Your saw it first on the official website, and as soon as Visas, transfers and International clearance are complete, you'll get full details right here. We first came across Colm when he played for the Irish Universitites in the 2009 4 Nations Competition - last season Colm played for Loughborough. Chris, a full Welsh International, was a key player for the Team Northumbria last season and division 2's fourth highest scorer, and has been on the Wildcats radar for sometime. A former student of Northumbria, Graham Pape was a Wildcat in our Division 3 days, and has 1st Division experience with the Teesside Mohawks. For those of you keen to find out about our new overseas players google Columbia University Basketball for Kevin and Yale University Basketball for Paul. Also in the frame are second year Durham University point guard Luke Watson and Andrew Bottger a 6' 6'' fresher from Switzerland. - 1 place left! - fingers crossed we get another Anthony Trigg or Andrea Consolati. |
