May 24, 2019 / Transfer guard signs with VU men’s basketball program
VINCENNES, Ind. – Vincennes University Men’s Basketball Coach Todd
Franklin signed transfer point guard Patrick Fisher on Friday.
The 6-foot, 170-pound Fisher will play closer to home. He is from
Bloomington, Illinois and played the 2018-19 season for Gavilan
College in Gilroy, California.
Gavilan is one of the top teams in the California Community College
Athletic Association.
Fisher averaged 7.7 points, 5.4 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.7 steals and
28 minutes per game freshman year. He was named to the Coast
Conference honorable mention team.
Franklin said Fisher is a “big-time defender with a better than 3 to
1 assist-to-turnover ratio”. He also said Fisher has “really good
strength and quickness”. He describes him as a “pass-first point guard”.
Fisher played a key role in Gavilan’s success last season. The Rams
compiled a 27-3 overall record, went 12-0 in the Coast Conference
South Division for their second straight league championship and
advanced to the CCCAA NorCal Regional finals for the second season in
a row.
