Missouri Southern head basketball coach Jeff Boschee has announced the signing of junior college transfer Enis Memic to a national letter of intent to play basketball and attend Southern beginning in the fall of 2017.
Memic, a 6-9, 235 pound forward played two seasons at Murray State College where this past season, he averaged 12.8 points, and 7.9 rebounds, while shooting 54 percent from the floor and 73 percent from the free throw line. He played in 25 games, starting 18. Memic was an All-Conference player at MSC.
A native of Sarajevo, Bosnia, Memic was part of the Bosina-Herzegovina national basketball team as a member of the under-16, under-18 and under-20 age groups. He helped his national team to a European Championship in the under-18 age group where he was the second-leading scorer in the tournament.
Memic prepped at St. Louis (Mo.) Christian Academy where he earned four letters for the Cougars. He is the son of Almir and Nermina Memic. His father is a professional soccer coach and his mother is an elementary school teacher. Memic will be majoring in finance at Southern.
"We are excited about the addition of Enis to our program," Boschee said. "He fills our main concerns for 17-18 recruiting year. We love his touch and ability to score around the basket. He has a great IQ and will be a huge asset for us next year. Enis has proven to be a highly motivated student in the class room, and has the type of character we are looking for in our program."
