Forward Chris Manning Transfers From Mount St. Mary's
Mount St. Mary's loses 2 players to transfer. Redshirt Freshman Chris Manning, F, 6'7 and Byron (BK) Ashe, G,... https://t.co/Z79uw4htHi

According to multiple reports, forward Chris Manning has decided to transfer from Mount St. Mary's. He was a redshirt freshman this season, played in just 13 games, and really didn't have any major statistical contributions. Mount St. Mary's is losing some significant contributors upfront this season, but have plenty returning on the wing, which might have been a factor in Manning's decision. Mount St. Mary's went 14-19 overall this season.
