VIDEO – GCU’s Jovan Blacksher Jr returns, inspires Lopes locker room

As Grand Canyon’s stellar season continues, they got their leader back from injury in Shadow Mountain High alum and All-WAC First Teamer Jovan Blacksher Jr.

Last year, he was voted WAC Preseason Players of the Year before suffering a season-ending knee injury just 12 games in.

As he works his way back to full strength and shakes off some rust, Jovan’s return has inspired the Lopes as he could be the the last piece to their March Madness puzzle. 

Hear from Jovan, Tyon Grant-Foster, and head coach Bryce Drew in the clip above.
