played last year at Antelope Valley Junior College in California, has signed a NationalLetter-of-Intent to join the Bobcat basketball program next fall.
Segeberg averaged 15.6 points and 7.3 rebounds a game at Antelope Valley last year,shooting 63% from the field and 67% from the line. He also blocked 33 shots, 1.1 a game,and scored 37 points in one game.
"Bo really understands the Big Sky Conference and is eager to help us inside at the centerposition. Bo has a nice touch inside and shooting range out to about 15 feet. He had a verysolid sophomore season at Antelope Valley after not playing much at Sacramento State as afreshman. The court time this season did wonders for his game and his confidence, and CoachChelette and his staff did an outstanding job with Bo. There weren’t a lot of centers available inthe west this year, so we’re very excited about Bo joining our program. He will help us
immediately."
Segeberg played in 17 games for Sacramento State in 2000 as a true freshman, scoring 14
points with 15 rebounds in just 4.1 minutes a game.He shot 30% from the floor, 67% from the
line, with four steals and two blocked shots.
"I think what separates Bo from a lot of players is his work ethic," said Newton Chelette, his
coach at Antelope Valley last year. "He’s the first player to practice and the last to leave,
andhe’s always in the weight room. I really think his best basketball is ahead of him. In the time
he’s been here he’s just gotten better and better. His footwork is outstanding, he has good
fundamentals, and works hard and mixes it up. He’s a tough kid, very coachable. Bo can
shoot the mid-range jumper, he’s very clever at the basket, he fakes and uses his body well.
He’s an excellent free throw shooter and gets to the line a lot."
Segerberg’s signing signals an end to MSU’s recruiting efforts this spring. He joins a Bobcat
front line that has been retooled in the past week. Segeberg and power forward transfersDamir Latovic and Casey Reynolds join Tom Duffy, the incumbent at center, andforward-center Kenny Plummer, and reserve forward E.J. Little. The Bobcats, 16-14 lastyear, return four starters and nine lettermen next fall. "We added size and experience inside thisspring, and added to the talented young players we signed last fall
