INDIANAPOLIS - The IU Indianapolis men's basketball program added another frontcourt player this week as the Jaguars inked 6-foot-11 center
Ebenezer Ogoh (Calgary, Alberta / Orangeville Prep / Harcum College) to a National Letter of Intent to join the program. Ogoh will have three seasons of eligibility remaining after having played this past season at Harcum College.
Ogoh started all 30 games as a freshman at Harcum, averaging 7.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 blocked shots per game.
"He's a big, strong, athletic kid. He's extremely active at both ends of the floor and defensively will provide a presence in the middle and rim protection. His size and athleticism will be a huge asset for us," head coach Paul Corsaro said. "I'm excited that he has three seasons of eligibility remaining, so he'll have some time to develop and ultimately be a big time player in the Horizon League for years to come."
Ogoh helped Harcum to a 25-5 record last season while shooting 63 percent from the field. He scored in double-figures 11 different times and just missed a triple double with seven points, 14 rebounds and 10 blocked shots against Cape Fear in mid-December. He scored a season-high 17 points a week prior against Northern Virginia.
Ogoh prepped at Orangeville Prep in Ontario and was ranked as one of the top players in Canada according to North Pole Hoops. His signing brings the current recruiting class to 12 individuals.
