Former Wichita State guard Noah Fernandes announced his next destination on Wednesday night, as he has decided to return home to continue his basketball career at the University of Massachusetts. This past Friday, Fernandes joined five of his teammates by entering the transfer portal, but is now the first to announce the school he will be transferring to.
In his lone season as a Shocker, Fernandes dealt with foot injuries that limited him to play in only 21 games. Fernandes was able to provide a spark to WSU’s rotation after they hit a rough patch as Gregg Marshall inserted the him into the starting lineup and helped WSU return to their winning ways.
