HORNETS END RECRUITING BY SIGNING JIMMY WHITE TO LETTER OF INTENT

4/24/2001

SACRAMENTO, Calif.-- The Sacramento State men's basketball team

completed its late signing period recruiting when it inked Jimmy

White to a National Letter of Intent on Tuesday. A 6-6 forward, White

played the past two seasons at Antelope Valley College in Lancaster,

Calif.

"I am very excited to have a player like Jimmy White coming in," head

coach Jerome Jenkins said. "I recruited him out of high school and

know that he will be a perfect fit for what we are trying to do here.

"He is strong around the hoop but has the ability to step out and

make the 15-to-18 foot jumper. Although he is 6-6, he is very

athletic and plays like he is 6-8."

As a sophomore, White averaged 21.8 points and 7.8 rebounds per game.

He ended the season tied for 13th among all California junior college

players in scoring. White also shot the ball well from the floor,

making 243-of-474 attempts (51.3 percent). He also connected on

32-of-82 three-point attempts (39.0 percent)

White joins Chris Lange and Leo Cravey who committed during the early

signing period and Raashad Hooks and Joel Jones who committed on

April 11.
