Former St. James Coastal Crew Rebels and Liberty County High School basketball player Freddie McSwain Jr., is enjoying his career at Indiana University. The junior Hoosier transferred to the Division I basketball team after excelling at Neosho County Community College his freshman and sophomore years.

Six games in McSwain is averaging 9.3 minutes per game, 2.7 points and 2.8 rebounds per game. It is likely McSwain will get more playing time now that he has allowed an older knee injury to fully heal.
