COVINGTON, Georgia — Eastside’s Treyvon Francis turned a lot of heads at his workout at Savannah State University.
One of those heads included Tigers head coach Horace Broadnax, who was part of the 1984 Georgetown Hoyas national championship team. After seeing what Francis could do, the Tigers offered Francis a new home.
“The coach at Savannah State said his workout, the coach played at Georgetown University, was one of the best workouts they’d seen in his tenure there. That says a lot for (Eastside),” Eagles head coach Gregory Freeman said. “What we did everyday and what we did before coming here really set the tone for this program. This (Francis signing) could be the younger guys if they follow the script of doing what they’re suppose to in the classroom, at home and at practice. All three of those things have to take place.”
Francis leaves Eastside having scored more than 1,000 points and 500 assist for his career. During his senior year, he scored 403 points making 66 percent of his field goals (83-of-125), 60 percent from 3-point range (34-of-57) and 80 percent of his free throws (100-of-125).
