LIVONIA, MI – Madonna University men’s basketball coach Chuck Henry has announced the signing of Whitmore Lake High School standout Tyler Coker for the 2007-08 season.

Tyler joins his brother, Drew, on the Madonna men's basketball team next season.  Drew just finished up his second season as a member of the men's basketball team at Madonna.

"It's going to be exciting for both of these players to be on the same team at the collegiate level," Henry said.  "We look forward to the addition of Tyler to our roster and feel that he can bring a proven scorer and ball handler to our program."

Coker is a 6-4 swingman who finished second in scoring in his conference at 19.2 points per game en route to sixth-team all-state honors following his senior campaign.

He helped the Trojans to a 12-9 mark overall on the year and a 7-7 mark in conference play.

Coker also grabbed 6.6 rebounds per contest, while dishing out 2.1 assists per game.
