The UCONN men’s team now has one scholarship available to give to a recruit now that Ben Eaves has decided to transfer. He hasn’t announced where he is planning to transfer too.

Eaves barely played this season and only scored 1 point.

“Ben and I met this week and he let me know that he has decided to continue his college career at another institution,” said Coach Calhoun. “While I am sad to see Ben leave, I completely understand his feelings and will do everything I can to help him transfer to a school where he can enjoy the best experience for him as a student and as a basketball player. I wish him nothing but good luck in the future.”

“I have really enjoyed my year here at Connecticut and this has been a tough decision for me and my family to make,” said Eaves. “I am excited about what is in store for me in the future and appreciate that the year here at UConn has made me a better player and person. I look forward to finding a school in the next several weeks that will help me continue my college experience, both as a student and as an athlete. Until then, I will continue to work hard here in the classroom and finish the semester strong.”
