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.
