Brooks inks with the Wildcats

The 6'8" Power Forward from Hopewell High School in Huntersville has signed with the Wildcats. De'Mon Brooks had previously signed with Howard University, but he re-opened his recruitment when Howard fired their coach. Brooks chose Davidson over Appalachian State and Elon this time around.

De'Mon was the I-MECK Conference Player of the Year during the 2009-2010 season. The big man played varsity basketball for just two seasons, and the Titans lost just four games during his tenure. Brooks has also played in unquestionably the best basketball conference in the state the past two seasons. De'Mon Brooks joins fellow Hopewell teammate, Jordan Downing in the 2014 class at Davidson.

This signing proves that the Wildcats are branching deeper into recruiting ties in the local area. In recent years the Wildcats have signed Stephen Curry, Brendan McKillop, Jordan Downing and now De'Mon Brooks from the Charlotte area. This signing wraps a third straight exceptional recruiting class for the Wildcats since the 2008 Elite Eight run.
