THUNDER BAY -- The Lakehead Thunderwolves men's basketball team has added a little height to their roster with their latest recruit.
The OUA team on Friday announced it had landed 6-foot-9 forward Flynn Gilmour of Toronto, the 103rd ranked player in Canada, according to North Pole Hoops.
Gilmour spent the past season with the London Basketball Academy in the National Preparatory Association, averaging 6.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.6 asssists a night. He also hit 38 per cent of his three-point attempts.
"I choose LU because of how defensively minded they are and how unselfish they play and I see myself fitting right in," Flynn said in a release issued by the school.
Lakehead coach Ryan Thomson said Gilmour brings plenty of versatility to his new team.
"Flynn is a good kid who works hard and wants to improve as a player. He's very versatile for his size with excellent touch from 3, can pass the ball and is unselfish. We're excited to get on the court and get to work with Flynn over the course of his career at LU," said Coach Thomson.
