MEN’S BASKETBALL
Amid preparations for a possible pro basketball career, senior point guard Mardy Collins became a new father late last month. His fiancee gave birth to their first son, Madden, on March 20.
Mock draft boards have Collins going early in the first round of the NBA Draft, which will be held June 28.
“It’s pretty exciting,” Collins told the Centre (Pa.) Daily Times last week. “There’s a lot of new changes in my life right now.”
