Former North Park Trojan Marcus Jones (6'0" PG), who spent his 5th year of high school eligibility playing for the Athlete Institute Academy (Orangeville, ON), has accepted a full scholarship to NCAA Division 2 school Gannon University in Erie, PA.

The Knights have a history of recruiting Canadians and have one other Canadian (senior to be 6'2" G Jabs Newby from Toronto) on their roster.

Gannon went 22-7 this past season, including a 16-6 conference mark before being upset in their conference quarterfinals by Slippery Rock University 62-58 in overtime.

Congratulations, Marcus!
