QUOTEABLE | Head Coach Jason Hooten 

"We are thrilled to have Peter join our Aggie family. From the beginning of this recruiting period, I knew he was someone that fit our system and me personally. Peter is a very experienced player who had great numbers this past season in a very competitive 

conference. With his everyday demeanor and strong work ethic, we feel those numbers will translate into Conference USA. He has a tremendous skill set and an amazing ability to score the ball in a variety of ways. His toughness and versatility will give us an exceptional rebounder, which is something we lacked this past season."
