CSI also sent its five sophomores from the 2022-23 season to the next level.

Kane, a transfer from Hagerstown Community College, will join a team with a face familiar to CSI fans. Former Golden Eagles assistant Dawson Henshaw is entering his second season as a Bulldogs assistant.

Kane averaged 3.7 points per game in his 25 appearances and five starts. He connected on a 41% clip (10 of 24) from 3-point range and shot 42% from the field. He also averaged 1.3 rebounds, 1.68 and nearly a steal per game.
