SEATTLE (Aug. 22) ­ Jared Moultrie, a 6-foot-2 guard from Salt Lake Community College, has signed a basketball scholarship agreement with Seattle Pacific University.

Moultrie, who will be a junior next season, started 31 games last season as Salt Lake CC went 27-6 and finished second in the regional tournament. He averaged 4.4 points and 3.5 assists and was an NJCAA national all-academic selection as a sophomore.

Moultrie played his freshman season at Montana State Northern. He was a first team all-state selection for Clearfield (Ut.) High School in 2001, and was twice named to the all-regional and all-area teams.

Seattle Pacific is coming off an appearance in the NCAA Division II tournament and a 20-9 record under head coach Jeff Hironaka. The Falcons, who earlier signed Sedro Woolley guard Adam Wardell, Shorewood High forward Rob Diederichs and Montana transfer Brian Lynch, will return three starters next season.
