“We’re very excited to have Shandon here. I know he talks a lot about his players and he’s a good guy,” said Hatters head coach Rob Edwards. 

“I had the chance to talk to him 2-3 times. He seemed interested in working with us. We didn’t force or threaten him.” 

“I think he saw it from an outsider’s perspective, what our team was like, so he wanted to join us and help each other out.” 

“He is a very talented player, can get on the ball, can dribble past people. I think he is an amazing player, very technical. I am looking forward to training with the group.”
