6/5/2024 5:19:00 PM | Men's Basketball
MORAGA, Calif. — Coming off of both a WCC Regular Season and Tournament Title, Saint Mary's Men's Basketball continues to build up their 2024-25 roster with the addition of wing player Oliver Faubert. Hailing from north of the border, Faubert will come to Saint Mary's after a strong prep career at the Fort Erie International Academy in Ontario, Canada. He finished his prep career as the the #1 prep player out of Ontario according to 247Sports.
Standing at 6-9, Faubert can play both the three and four positions, and has shown great skill from beyond the arc. Playing in the Ontario Scholastic Basketball Association, he averaged 12 points per game, while shooting 48.4% from the field and a stellar 64.3% from three, with nearly half of his shots coming from beyond the arc. Active as more than just a scorer, Faubert also averaged 5.2 rebounds and 2.0 assists per contest this past season.
Faubert initially signed with the University of Wyoming, but following the departure of Head Coach Jeff Linder, reopened his recruitment, and opted to sign with Coach Bennett and the Gaels. Faubert is the fifth new face joining the Gaels this season, alongside Mikey Lewis, Josh Dent, Paulius Murauskas, Liam Campbell and Ashton Hardaway.
