Three key players headed to the Vikes
One of the great legacies in University of Victoria Vikes basketball history will be reprised with a second generation. Justin Hinrichsen will join Spectrum Thunder teammate Tyler Felt and Oak Bay Bays star Toren Franklin in a blockbuster recruit class coming to CARSA gym in the fall.
The younger Hinrichsen and Felt, who helped Team B.C. win silver at junior nationals over the summer, led Spectrum to the school’s first B.C. high school championship last year with Felt named provincial tournament MVP and they have the Thunder again ranked No. 1 in the province this season. “They are unique players with no selfish mentality, as sometimes happens with high school players, who like to put up as many points as they can,” said UVic head coach Murphy Burnatowski.
