Men's Basketball Inks Simeon Wilcher

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Simeon Wilcher, a 6-5 guard from Plainfield, N.J., has signed a National Letter of Intent to attend the University of North Carolina, head men's basketball coach Hubert Davis announced on Wednesday.

"We're very excited about Simeon joining Carolina Basketball," says Davis. "He is exactly what we were looking for and what we wanted in a guard in the class of 2023. He has a skilled combination of size, athleticism and competitiveness, is an excellent on-ball defender, can really shoot well and is a fantastic finisher at the basket. What really sets him apart is his terrific understanding of when to pass and when to shoot. He can be dominant on both ends of the court and he simply makes everyone around him better, which is one of the reasons his team is ranked No. 1 in the country. Simeon and his family are the kind of people we are always looking for to be a part of this program."

Wilcher, the son of Sergio and Kim Wilcher, plays for Coach Dave Boff at Roselle Catholic High School in Roselle, N.J.
