Vallejo,
Calif.---Cal Maritime head men’s
basketball coach Bryan Rooney has
announced the commitment of De Anza
College forward Kris Gingrich.
Kris recently finished a solid career at
De Anza where he played for head coach
Jason Damjanovic.
Gingrich, a
6’5” forward, led his team with a 15.3
points per game average during
conference play to go along with 5.6
rebounds per game. A very efficient
offensive player, Kris shot over 50%
from the field and a stellar 84% from
the free throw line. For his efforts,
he was named to the All Conference team
in the tough Coast Conference.
“We are very
excited that Kris is coming aboard! He
has shown the ability to be a productive
scorer at De Anza and I believe that he
is very motivated to make the most out
of his two years with us,” commented
Coach Rooney.
A solid student in the classroom, Kris
will be a student in Cal Maritime’s
nationally recognized Mechanical
Engineering program when he starts
school in the Fall.
Cal Maritime
finished the 2008-09 season with a
school record 17 wins including a 9-7
record in the California Pacific
Conference. The Keelhaulers earned a bid
to the Cal Pac Conference Championships
and advanced in the playoffs as far as
any Cal Maritime team ever has. The
2009-2010 seasons begins when the
Keelhaulers travel to participate in the
Cal Baptist Lancer Classic.
Go
Keelhaulers!
