Going Back to Cali
Taran Armstrong is returning to California after signing a two-way contract with the Golden State Warriors. There have been many exciting players to come through the Lancers basketball program in the NCAA era. Among the most exciting is Taran Armstrong. He was known for his maximum effort and flashy passes. Even though he was injured for much of his two-year tenure at CBU, he was able to win WAC Freshman of the Year and second-team WAC Conference awards. He left CBU to sign a professional contract in his home country of Australia. His contract with the Warriors is the first NBA contract signed by a former Lancer. Congratulations, Taran!
