Former Saint Leo University men’s basketball standout Junior Searcy is going pro — internationally.
The 6-foot-4 forward recently signed a professional contract with the Wiha Schwennigen Panthers of the Pro A league in Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany.
The three-year Lions player capped off his career playing in 24 games during the 2018-2019 season, posting 10.7 points, 4 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 28.2 minutes per game; he also made 38.5 percent of 3-pointers.
In three seasons at Saint Leo, Searcy tallied 757 points with 286 rebounds, 124 assists, 52 steals and 48 blocks.
Searcy will begin his German pro career in September. He will be one of three active Saint Leo players playing international pro basketball, joining Spenser Mitchell (Lithuania Palanga BC; class of 2014) and Justin Satchell (Dosa Dominican Republic; class of 2017).
