July 1, 2009
FORT WORTH, Texas - TCU head men's basketball coach Jim Christian announced on Wednesday that Nikola Cerina (Vrsac, Serbia | Nikola Tesla S.S.) has signed a National Letter of Intent and will join the Horned Frogs for the 2009-10 campaign. "Nikola is a great addition to our program," said Christian. "Nikola is a 6-9 player that is big and strong, but very athletic. He's really going to help us on the interior. He's a player who knows how to play the game and can really step up and shoot the ball." The 6-9, 235 lb., power forward comes to the Frogs' program from Vrsac, Serbia, where he averaged 14.0 points and 8.5 rebounds per game for KK Hemofarm of the Junior League. Cerina becomes the fifth player to sign with the Frogs following the conclusion of the 2008-09 campaign as he joins Xavier Roberson (Houston, Texas | Mississippi Elite Christian Academy), Greg Hill (Gary, Ind. | Midland College) and Dernodo Eiland (Aurora, Ill. | Pratt C.C.) and Cheick Kone (Mali, Africa | Howard College). Garlon Green (Missouri City, Texas | Hightower H.S.) signed with the Frogs during the fall signing period. TCU Athletics Media Relations
