Former Battler Nate Barnes Lands Pro Contract

Battler Beat has learned that former Alderson Broaddus guard Nate Barnes has landed a professional
basketball contract in a league in Nicaragua. Nate has recently signed to play with Los Trinis of the ACB League of Nicaragua in Trinidad. Barnes is a native of Cleveland, Ohio.

Nate Barnes played for Alderson Broaddus during the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons. During the 2010-11 season, he averaged 19 points per game which garnered him 1st-team All-WVIAC honors as a junior. Nate played the two-guard that season. The 2011-12 season saw Nate move to the point guard position when fellow Cleveland native Kurklin Bohanon (pictured below with Nate) arrived at AB. Barnes averaged 16.5 points per game and 5 assists per game that season. Prior to coming to Alderson Broaddus, Barnes was twice named 1st-team All-Ohio Community College Athletic Conference for his performances at Lakeland Community College during his freshman and sophomore seasons.

Nate debuted for Los Trinis a few nights ago. In his debut game, he scored 20 points. We congratulate Nate Barnes on his contract and will keep AB basketball fans updated on Nate's progress here at Battler Beat.
