Louie Jordan has announced his commitment to join NCAA Division 1 school Weber State ahead of the 2022-23 season.

The 18-year-old forward was part of Charnwood College’s EABL title-winning roster this season as they defeated Myerscough.

Jordan averaged 13.4 points and 5.6 rebounds per game in the EABL regular season and also made 13 league appearances for Leicester Riders in the BBL.

“I’m excited to commit to Weber State,” he said via release. “I have always wanted to go and test myself in the NCAA and I’m really grateful to Weber State for the opportunity to fulfil a dream.

“Winning the EABL title is the perfect way to leave Charnwood College. I owe a big thank you to the whole Rider programme – the staff and coaches who have supported me in my time here.”

The Leicester native is the second Charnwood player to announce they are D1 bound next season after Victor Ndoukou confirmed his intention to join North Dakota.

Jordan is set to link up with another Brit at Weber State with Alex Tew part of the roster that went 21-12 in his freshman year.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
