With just hours to go before Uni 2nds take on Trent at Clifton Campus we've been given an exclusive preview of the players representing Uni today:

Mark Furmston AKA Furmo Dynamics (Forward)
Our starting forward, Furmo, models himself on Liam Gallagher and would rather be singing to the crowd than playing basketball. He will belt out songs at any opportunity so if he approaches you with a guitar in his hands you know to put your fingers in your ears and run. He is known for his consistent fade away jump shot and certainly knows his way around a ring. Expect to see him penetrating at any opportunity.

Marc Waldorf AKA Question Marc (Centre)
Known as question Marc because of his inexplicable confusion at the simplest of tasks, Marc is by far the biggest player on the team, a monster inside the key. This Austrian giant will steal many offensive rebounds and your hearts. Though he commits a lot of his time to the club, he prefers spray tanning, flowery shorts and wake-boarding.

Jack Davison (Forward) AKA El Presidente AKA Captain Jack
