USD Gets Guard From Arizona

Mike Brown, a 6-foot-3 guard, became the second recruit from Mesa (Ariz.) Community College to sign a letter of intent to play basketball at the University of San Diego.

“Basically,” said USD Coach Hank Egan, “he can play any one of the perimeter positions.”

Brown, who attended Wuerzburg American High in Germany, was an All-Region I selection of the National Junior College Athletic Assn. He averaged 13.9 points and 4.2 rebounds at Mesa.

Brown joins Reed Watson, who signed in November, and seniors Shawn Hamilton, Pat Holbert and Anthony Thomas as Toreros from Mesa.
