Bearcats C Jay Sorolla leaves team to begin professional career

Center Jaume “Jay” Sorolla has left the team to take advantage of an opportunity to play overseas.

After seeing his tweet early in the AM, the University has released more information which we added below. Good luck to Jay!

Mamoudou Diarra will likely get the main backup center minutes and it could mean more playing time for Jeremiah Davenport.

Per GoBearcats:

University of Cincinnati graduate transfer center Jaume “Jay” Sorolla (Barcelona, Spain/Sunrise Christian Academy/Valparaiso) has returned to his native country of Spain Bearcats head coach John Brannen announced Tuesday. 

“Jay has decided to start his professional career in Europe,” Brannen said. “We wish him success.”

The 7-foot, 260-pound graduate transfer from Valparaiso played in 11 games this season for the Bearcats, averaging 3.3 points, 2.4 rebounds and 0.6 assists in 11.0 minutes.
