Another player has left Jeff Capel's program, albeit a player with a lesser role on last year's 16-win Panthers squad.
According to Cole Dewey, the head coach of Garden City Community College (via Twitter), K.J. Marshall has joined the school's basketball team.
Marshall, a native of Reading, Pennsylvania, spent one season at the University of Pittsburgh. During high school at Trinity Christian Academy in North Carolina, Marshall played with current Pitt junior Au'Diese Toney.
Across six games played, Marshall averaged 1.5 minutes/game and 0.3 points/game. His only two points for the Panthers came in a February 18 loss at Florida State. He also saw time in regular-season losses to Clemson (February 12), Syracuse (February 26) and Georgia Tech (March 4).
In what would prove to be Marshall's final game at Pitt, the 5'9" guard got to play in North Carolina again, this time in the second round of the ACC Tournament at the Greensboro Coliseum in a loss to the NC State Wolfpack. Marshall played two minutes, grabbing one rebound.
Garden City Community College is located in Garden City, Kansas, approximately 200 miles northwest of Wichita, Kansas and 300 miles southeast of Denver, Colorado.
The Garden City Broncbusters compete in the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference. In 2019-2020, they played to a 9-22 record with a tough 3-18 mark in conference action.
