BRYANT MEN'S BASKETBALL SIGNS DON TRIFARI TO NATIONAL LETTER OF INTENT

SMITHFIELD, RI - Bryant University men's basketball coach Max Good is pleased to announce the signing of guard DON TRIFARI (Towaco, NJ) to a National Letter of Intent to enroll and participate in men's basketball at Bryant in the fall of 2008.

Trifari, a 6-foot-2, 170 pound guard, attended Montville High School in New Jersey in 2006-07.  Averaging 23 points per game, Trifari was the leading scorer in Morris County and among the top-five scorers in the state of New Jersey.   He averaged 6.0 rebounds per game along with four steals and three 3-point field goals per game in earning First Team All-Northern Hills Conference and First Team All-Morris County honors. 

In 2006, Trifari led his A.A.U. team, the New Jersey X-Press, to the NJAUU Division I State Championship.   This year he is attending Paul Robeson High School of Brooklyn, New York, one of the top high school programs in the New York City area. 

"Don is an outstanding guard who can shoot the ball very well and has tremendous ball handling skills," said Good.  "He'll make an immediate impact to our program as we begin our move to Division I."
