The FIBA European Championships will hold the Under 20 division in Malta in July 2010. Ryan, a 6’4″ wing is a Freshman on the NCAA Division 1 Appalachian State University team that won 24 games this year and won the Southern Conference North Division Title under head Coach Buzz Peterson. Ryan, a muscular guard, can get to the rim and has a fast release on his shot brings athleticism and NCAA experience to the wing position.

Alex, a 6’7″ 220 lb wing / forward brings intriguing match up challenges, as he has guard skills, abiltiy to handle the ball and pass as well as a very deep range on his jump shot but a large frame for inside opportunities. Alex completed a very successful high school season under the tutelage of Coach Mike King.

Both young men have played for Wales in the past, but this is the first time they will be teammates. They are eligible to play for Wales in the European Championships as their mother, Jane Kilmartin was born in Wales (and represented Wales in the Miss Universe contest in 1984). Both young men hold British passports.

This squad will play in the Cheshire Jets tournament on 3rd & 4th April. The squad will train alongside the Senior Men in some sessions, and then work towards a European tournament this summer.
