It’s been a while since University of Tennessee at Chattanooga men’s basketball coach Dan Earl didn’t have Trey Bonham or Honor Huff on his roster.
Six seasons, to be exact.
Bonham’s eligibility has run out and Huff has chosen to spend his final college season at West Virginia, though, so a new era of guard play is being ushered in at UTC, and senior Teddy Washington and junior Jordan Frison are excited to be a part of it.
Washington comes to the program having made stops at two other NCAA Division I programs and five other schools total, while Frison is getting his introduction into D-I ball after two successful seasons at Division II member Pittsburg State, where he was the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association freshman of the year for the 2023-24 season and the league’s player of the year last season.
Along with North Dakota State transfer Brennan Watkins, sophomore walk-on Parker Robison and freshman Tate Darner, the Mocs feel good about the guard position. In the team’s two scrimmages, Washington led the team at 13 points per game, while Frison was right behind him at 12.
