Kamiak High School's Jeff Knudson has signed a national letter of intent to play basketball at Seattle Pacific University beginning next season.

Knudson averaged 16.2 points while setting season scoring and numerous three-point shooting records for the Mukilteo school last year. The 6-6 forward was selected all-Wesco 4A South as a junior.

Said SPU Coach Ken Bone: "He's a prolific three-point shooter whose all-around game seems to only get better and better. We're glad to get his committment so early."

The Falcons, ranked No. 17 in the NCAA Division II preseason poll, open the regular season Friday night by hosting No. 22 Cal State San Bernardino at 7. Last year SPU went 27-5 and made the Final Four.
