Add another transfer to the mix for Longwood with Richmond native Khris Lane from Drexel. The 6'6, 215 lbs forward comes to Longwood after playing one season at Drexel where he appeared in just 4 games due to a lingering injury. Lane could petition the NCAA to have a full four years of eligibility left but he likely will have to sit out the 2014–15 season for Longwood.
Lane chose Drexel over VMI, ECU, Ohio, Niagara, and Appalachian State his senior year and played his high school ball at Benedictine, which is currently coached by Longwood alum Ryan Marable.
Lane described his game as such to the City of Basketball Love when he committed to Drexel:
“I can do a whole lot of different things. I’m a pretty good outside shooter, 15 feet out to the ’3′…I think I bring a lot of versatility–I can rebound, defend.”
