Peregrines add a Champion to 2009-10 roster

HAMMOND, Ind. — Jordan Champion, a 6-1 guard from Logansport High School, is the latest recruit to join the Peregrines basketball squad. Champion finished among the top ten in scoring in the North Central Conference averaging 13.7 points per game and led the conference hitting 2.86 3-point attempts per game.

At the free throw line, Champion hit 77.6 percent finishing in the top ten in the conference. He earned a spot on the all conference second team, was the most valuable player of the Cass County Tournament, and also played in the Hoosier Select All-Star Classic.

Champion’s addition to the roster gives Peregrine Head Coach Dan Voudrie more depth and scoring off the bench.

“We’re really excited to have Jordan Champion join our program with his solid athletic background,” Voudrie said. “Having played at a high level during high school, the transition to the college game will be a quick and successful one.

“Like our previous recruits Jordan’s commitment in the classroom is at an extraordinary level.”
