UMC BASKETBALL SIGNS A DII TRANSFER FROM BROOKLYN, NY

The University of Minnesota Crookston men’s basketball team announced the signing of Marcus Thompson (F, 6-6 265, Brooklyn, N.Y./Lander University).

Thompson appeared in 14 games for Division II Lander University located in Greenwood, S.C. During the 2020-21 season he averaged five points and four rebounds per game. He averaged 10.1 minutes per game for the Bearcats. Thompson shot 50.0 percent from the field during the 2020-21 season. Prior to Lander, Thompson attended junior college at Monroe College, the same junior college that produced former Golden Eagle Ibu Jassey-Demba. During the 2019-20 season, Thompson tallied eight points and six rebounds per game. He appeared in 32 games and started three. Thompson shot 51.0 percent from the field.  During the 2019-20 season, Thompson tallied 11 double-figure scoring outings. He had six games with double-figure rebounds during the 2019-20 slate. Thompson was named to the All-Region Team during the 2019-20 slate. He attended Robert H. Goddard High School during his prep career.
“Marcus brings some Division II experience to our program,” said Head Coach Dan Weisse. “He showed with the minutes he played he was a capable rebounder, a good passer, he runs the floor extremely well for his size, and will bring about a physicality to our team. He completes our front court and adds depth and another dimension with our post play, particularly our power forward position. He provides our team with something we didn’t have at that position. I’m excited to have Marcus be a part of the Golden Eagle basketball family.”
