Aliceville’s Ed Weston helped lead the Yellow Jackets to their first Final Four berth since 1993 and has been a starter on varsity since his sophomore year. The shooting guard will now take his talents to Jasper, Alabama to play for head coach Tommy Suitts and the Bevill State Bears.
“Ed is one of those guys that you want to have on your team just because of his character alone,” Aliceville head coach Chris Walker said. “On and off the court, he was one of those that I never really had to worry about and that’s something you want. I’m really excited for him. I think he’s deserved everything he has got.”
Weston said he plans to stay one year at BSCC before transferring to play for a four year school. He has already been taking industrial maintenance classes at the Bevill State campus in Carrollton and already has one year of coursework behind him.
