Two Knoxville players off to Mexico to make noise

June 8, 2006 - American Basketball Association (ABA)
Knoxville Noise News Release


Knoxville, TN. Terrence Woods and Michael Harper, former teammates at the University of Florida A & M came to the Knoxville Noise tryout on Saturday, May 20th looking to make the ABA Knoxville Noise roster. They left not only with a spot on the Noise roster, but received a contract offer from Joe Duran on behalf of the owners of Cimaarones of Ensenada. Mr. Duran, who is a representative and player scout for the LNBP basketball league which is considered to be the NBA of Mexico, came specifically to the Noise tryout to scout for talent, and immediately noticed the floor chemistry and the exceptional skill level of the two former teammates, and believed these two players will be an excellent fit for the expansion team in the LNBP. The overall talent that showed up for tryouts with the Knoxville Noise impressed Mr. Duran. He has been working diligently in his efforts in securing contract offers for other players on the Knoxville Noise for the summer.

We would like to extend our best wishes to Mr. Harper and Mr. Woods. We hope and pray for a productive and healthy summer for these men. We eagerly await their return in the hopes of leading the Knoxville Noise to an ABA championship in our inaugural season.
