Linder on Faubert

“We’re thrilled about the addition of Oliver Faubert to the 2024 signing class. Oliver comes to us from one of the most successful prep programs in Canada, Fort Erie International Academy, and a strong AAU program in Brookwood Elite on the adidas 3SSB circuit. The level of coaching and competition he faces daily, has helped elevate his game to a high level. As a player, Oliver has the unique blend of size and skill, which allows him to play on the wing or inside. His ability to shoot along with posting-up smaller defenders really separates him from other wing-forwards. His upside and versatility will allow him to excel at the Mountain West level.”

“Additionally, Oliver comes from a great family and is a high character young man with a strong academic background. We can’t wait to get to work with Oliver in the near future.”
