Subject: McMillion signs with UMES
In reply to: Moose 's message, "Latina at SHU" on 07:28:17 06/29/05 Wed

Speaking of Blue Devils finding new homes, Antonio McMillion found a DI program closer to his home in Maryland after his eye injury forced him to sit out a season at CCSU. He returned to find limited PT behind other recruits. UMES signed 7 players and has a potential NBA draft pick returning for this season. Good luck to Antonio too!

Antonio McMillion, a 6-5, 205 lb. forward is another player joining the Hawks. McMillion, a Randallstown, MD native is no stranger to Division I ball having played one year at Central Connecticut State University (CCSU). A 2003 Randallstown High School graduate, McMillion enrolled at CCSU hoping to contribute to the 2003-2004 campaign but suffered a severe eye injury and had to sit out. He returned to action the following season playing in seven games and tallying ten points and six rebounds. He left the Blue Devils searching for playing time and found it at Colby Community College. At Colby McMillion started all 31 games he played in averaging 15.6 points per game and 6.3 rebounds. He had season highs of 23 points and nine rebounds. He posted the 23 points in each of Colby's opening games last season.

"Antonio comes from the best AAU program in Maryland, Cecil-Kirk. He is very athletic and makes big plays. He is exciting to watch; he makes us a very quick, athletic and versatile team. Teams from the Missouri Valley, Mid-American, Horizon and Southland Conferences were all interested," said Lessett.

In high school McMillion averaged 23.5 points and 11.3 rebounds his senior season. He led his team to the State Championship that year and was named First-Team All-Metro and Third-Team All-State. He was named the Baltimore County Player of the Year by marylandhoops.com. As a junior at Randallstown he averaged 11.3 points and 6.9 rebounds per game. That year he was also named Second-team All-Baltimore County and led his team to the State Championship game. CCSU Head Coach Howie Dickenman described McMilion as "an explosive jumper and quick to the basket from the wing position. He can make things happen."
