Two Eagles Playing in NAIA All-Star Game

 

Two Oklahoma Wesleyan basketball seniors will look to put on a show on Tuesday as a part of the NAIA all-star game. K.J. Malveau and Josh Wilchcombe were nominated by the coaching staff to participate in the game highlighting the top outgoing seniors in the nation.

Eagles head coach Donnie Bostwick says this game will give both players a chance to be seen by professional scouts.

Both Wilchcombe and Malveau were honored as members of the All-KCAC first team. Wilchcombe was also selected as the KCAC defensive player of the year. Both transferred from junior colleges prior to the 2017-18 season and led the Eagles to 56 wins in two seasons. Bostwick says fellow-senior Isaak Rowe will also have a chance at professional basketball.

Former Eagle 1,000-point scorer Breiman Alexander, who transferred to Oklahoma Panhandle State after three years at OKWU will also being playing in the all-star game.

The event is slated for 6 p.m. at Kansas City’s Municipal Auditorium.
