CULLOWHEE–The Findlay (OH) Courier reported today that Western Carolina guard Greg Avery has transferred to Div. II University of Findlay.

Avery, from Newark, OH, played in 30 games and started four for Western. He averaged 6.6 pts. and 3.9 rebounds per game in just over 21 minutes playing time.

The U of F Oilers are coming off a 36-0 record and a Div. II national championship.

Wrote Courier reporter Brian Lester:

You can’t blame the guy for his decision to transfer.

I mean, why not play for a team that has a chance to contend for a title year in and year out rather than a Division I school that might be fortunate enough to play one or two games in the NCAA Tournament?
