Hounds sign guard to squad

Justin Redman-Trotter, a 6-foot-3, 175-pound guard from Milwaukee, has signed a national letter of intent to play basketball next season at Eastern New Mexico University.

Redman-Trotter was a two-year starter at Northern Iowa Area Community College in Mason City, averaging 16.6 points last season to rank second in the Iowa Community College Athletic Conference. He was the league leader in steals with two per game, finished fourth in free throw percentage at 80 percent and ranked eighth in assists with four per game.

Redman-Trotter was a first-team NJCAA Division II All-Region XI selection.

“Justin sees the floor very well, is a good passer and plays well at the basket,” ENMU men’s coach Shawn Scanlan said. “His ability to get to the basket will be in contrast to most of our players from this past year. The fact that he gets to the line and is a very good free throw shooter is another great quality.”
