Great Falls Explorers News Release
The Great Falls Explorers have announced another new signee from last year's team. Jovan Harris, a talented point guard from the University of San Francisco averaged 11 points and 5 assists for the 06-07 Explorers.
Harris joins the team after averaging over 29 points per game in the IBL for the Tri-Valley Titans. He ended the summer as an alternate on the Mexican National Team that competed in Las Vegas.
"Jovan is a great player who knows what it takes to be successful in our league," commented General Manager Ryan Acra, "he is a solid shooter and scorer, but plays the point position with a pass first mentality."
"Having strong guard play is a necessity in the CBA," added Assistant Coach Justin Wetzel, "getting a player like Jovan who is proven success at this level is great for our team."
The Explorers have officially signed 7 of the potential 15 players that will be attending training camp beginning November 5. Besides Harris, the pre-season Explorers will consist of returners Jamar Howard and Marlyn Bryant, Forwards Najeeb Echols, and Mike Chavez, a 6'11", big man from Detroit-Mercy Mike Harmon, and Nate Johnson a 6'5" point guard from Florida State.
The Explorers will begin their second season on November 16 on the road against the defending CBA Champion Yakama Sun Kings. The first home game will be on December 4 at the Four Seasons Arena. Season tickets and mini-packs are available at the Explorers office.
