Rainbows sign JC guard

Advertiser Staff

John Wilder, a 6-foot-1 point guard from Weatherford (Texas) Junior College, has signed a national letter of intent to play for the University of Hawai'i-Manoa men's basketball team, UH announced.

Wilder comes from the same junior college that sent the Rainbows Nerijus Puida, Mindaugas Burneika and Vaidotas Peciukas.

Wilder, a two-time All-North Texas JC Athletic Conference selection, averaged 12 points and three assists per game for the Coyotes this past season.

He is the fourth recruit to sign with UH.
