GRAND FORKS, N.D. – Head Coach
Paul Sather and the University of North Dakota men's basketball program announced the addition of Elijah Brooks to the 2022-23 Fighting Hawks roster on Tuesday morning.
Sather on Brooks:
"Elijah is a big guard that plays basketball with great pace, physicality and skill. He is fast in the open court, plays downhill in the half court, and attacks the rim with great efficiency. His feel for making the right play makes him a versatile guard and someone that can guard multiple positions on defense. Elijah's a really talented basketball player, but more importantly, he's a high character man that does a great job in the classroom and the community."
