Macon, GA. The ABA Georgia Gwizzlies of Macon, Georgia are excited and pleased to announce that 7'2", 275 pound Charlie Ludwig will play for the Gwizzlies when the season begins this November. Gene Ludwig of Florence SC, a successful business owner and Charlie's father, confirmed with the Gwizzlies staff that his son will be wearing a Gwizzlies uniform this season. "Our only concern is to be ready to replace him once FIBA and NBA teams come knocking," said Gwizzlies GM Embry Malone. "We are ready to have my pre-season choice for the ABA MVP Award in 6'9" multi-talented B.J. Punkett and All-Star probables guards 6'3" Michael Toth and 6'8" Jason Warren. And now we have Ludwig."
