Former St. Francis College, Brooklyn Heights, basketball standout Ben Mockford signed a pro contract with Caceres, a team in the Spanish Basketball Federation.

The native of Shoreham-by-Sea, England, averaged 12.0 pts. per game and was one of the NCAA’s best three-point shooters last year in his senior season.

This past summer, the former Terrier point guard contributed valuable bench minutes to the Great Britain national team in the EuroBasket qualifying tournament.
