Current Texas Christian University Horned Frog, and 2010 Sheridan College All-American, JR Cadot finished out his summer by participating in the FIBA Caribbean Basketball Confederation Championship Tournament for his home country of the Bahamas. Cadot and his squad battled Jamaica in an overtime win in the semi-final game of the tournament for a chance to face the U.S. Virgin Islands in the championship game. Cadot finished the game with a double-double, tallying 13 points and 12 rebounds, ensuring the Bahamian team a spot in the upcoming Centrobasket Tournament. The Centrobasket Tournament invites teams from the Caribbean, Latin American, and Mexico to compete for an opportunity to play in the upcoming FIBA Americans Championship, and ultimately the Olympic Games.

The U.S. Virgin Islands squeaked past the Bahamas in the championship game, defeating Cadot and his team by the slimmest of margins, 91-89. Cadot fueled a second-half comeback as the Bahamas faced a 20 point deficit going into halftime. Cadot led his team in scoring with 22 points, while going 4-6 (66.7%) from deep, and grabbing 7 rebounds. A Silver Medal for the Bahamas is the highest finish that the team has earned in the tournament since they won Gold in 1995.

For the tournament Cadot impressed by showing his consistency averaging 10.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per contest, garnering him a spot on the All-Tournament Team. When asked about his experience, Cadot said that, “playing for the Bahamas national basketball team sparked a fire in me to not only dominate this year for my Senior season in college, but to do the little things that I have to as a Senior in order to finally bring a Mountain West Basketball Championship to TCU”

Generals Sign Wyo 3A Player of the Year, Aaron Tyser!

2011-06-22T08:26:00.001-07:00

Sheridan College Head Men's Basketball Coach Steve Smiley announced the signing today of Aaron Tyser from Buffalo HS, WY. Aaron is a 6'4", 195 pound wing / forward who will join current General Robert Heyer as back-to-back Wyoming 3A State Players of the Year. While Aaron was at Buffalo High School, he led his team to back-to-back 3A State Titles, was named All-Conference three times, and All-State twice while averaging 16ppg and 6rpg as a senior. Aaron also graduated #1 in his class academically as he held a cumulative 4.0 GPA and lettered in football for 3 years. Aaron will bring toughness and leadership on and off the court.
Coach Smiley's thoughts: "Aaron is a great addition to our program. He really impressed us late this spring when he came up to work out. He was more advanced as a player than I had previously realized, and we're very happy to have him next year. We see Aaron competing for minutes at our small forward position. He had a great spring, representing the state in a sweep of the South Dakota and Montana All-Stars, scoring in double-figures in all four of those games (the only Wyoming player to do that). He has a chance to be a very good player for us."

Sheridan College coach Steve Smiley signed guard RJ Leverette on Monday, June 20th. RJ is a 6'0", 160 pound point guard from Grandview High School in Missouri.

As a Bulldog, RJ averaged 19.2 points, 6.3 assists, 3.2 rebounds, and 2.9 steals a game. Last year against Stanley High School, RJ scored 26 points and dished out 12 assists in Grandview's win. He also had a breakout performance against Belton when he went off for 36 points and 6 assists. Leverette will bring the scoring side to the point guard position that will compliment fellow freshman Donald Gaddy's pass first mentality. Coach Smiley has never recruited from the Kansas City area before, but was very happy to see RJ still around during the summer.

Coach Smiley on RJ: "We're really excited to have RJ's commitment to play for us next year. Coach Davis did a great job in initially focusing on RJ and developing a relationship with him. RJ had a great visit to campus and we were all really impressed with RJ as a player and more importantly, as a person. He has a chance to be a really good player at our level, and I truly believe he will move on to the Division 1 level after his time at Sheridan if he continues to work hard and develop his body and his overall game."

SC Generals sign elite East Coast Guard, Wayne Bradford!

2011-06-21T11:27:00.000-07:00

Sheridan College will welcome Wayne Bradford to campus when the school year begins in August.

Coach Smiley had this to say about Wayne: "We're really excited to have Wayne join our team for next year. Wayne is not only a really good player, but a good student as well. Realistically, he should be at a D1 school right now, but a few things fell through for Wayne, and we were able to get involved with him late in the process. Wayne played for a great high school coach and also played for one of the top AAU programs on the East Coast when he played for the East Coast Fusion and Head Coach Cade Lemcke. Wayne is a very versatile player that is naturally a scoring guard, but could also play the point or the small forward if needed. He will really help us out for next year."

As Don Meyer's Head Assistant a couple years ago, Dan learned so much in terms of coaching the right way, and his experiences in Georgia at a great program (Georgia College) will also help out tremendously.

"We're thrilled to get a player of Donald's caliber to help fill our guard position for next year. Our #1 priority in the upcoming class was to find a pass-first point guard that would make his teammates better, and we also wanted to find a guard that had the ability to put tremendous pressure on the ball on the defensive end. Donald fits the mold exactly. He's a very good athlete, has a great feel for the game and for getting his teammates involved, and should be a great defensive player. His main goal, in terms of player improvement, is to improve on his jump shot from the perimeter. If he is able to become a consistent shooter from the perimeter, he has a chance to be a very special player."

We felt that Tate was one of the most intriguing prospects in our immediate region, with his size and athleticism and high skill level. We see Tate eventually playing a power forward position for us. He's very skilled from the perimeter, can hit the open jump shot, and also is effective inside with his footwork and touch around the rim. Tate's biggest challenge early on will be to develop his physical strength and put on more mass, but we're confident that he can be a contributor to our team in the near future."

The Sheridan College Generals finished the 2010-11 Regular Season in impressive fashion by beating two Wyoming Conference Rivals this past weekend, to finish the year 21-9 heading into this week's Region 9 Tournament.

On Friday night, the Generals played Eastern Wyoming College from Torrington, WY, attempting to avenge an earlier season loss in Torrington.

McDade led the Generals with 19 points, and Jarrell Crayton finished with 12.

On Saturday, the Generals finally broke out of a shooting and scoring slump against a red-hot Laramie County team that had won their previous nine games. Sheridan exploded out of the gates and led 51-42 at halftime, and kept up the performance throughout, as they torched LCCC for 95 points en route to a 95-81 victory. Lamont Prosser had one of his best games of the year with 23 points and 11 rebounds, Omar McDade had 25 points, 9 rebounds, and 4 assists, Jarrell Crayton had 13 points and 9 rebounds, Matt Glover had 11 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists, and Kendrick Morse had a team-high 7 assistss and 9 points.
