Toews Departs Seahawk Roster

WILMINGTON, North Carolina – Sophomore point guard Kai Toews has informed the UNCW men's basketball team that he is returning to his home country of Japan to pursue a career in professional basketball.

The playmaker from Tokyo informed Head Coach C.B. McGrath and his coaching staff of the decision following Saturday's game at Vanderbilt. Toews played in all 13 games this season, making 12 starts, averaging 5.5 points, 2.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists for the Seahawks.

"Obviously, it was a total surprise to us," said McGrath. "We appreciate Kai's contributions to our program and wish him well in the future."

A 2019 CAA All-Rookie selection, Toews appeared in 46 games in one and a half seasons with the Seahawks, scoring 362 points, collecting 112 rebounds and dishing out 309 assists. He set a school and CAA single season record with 253 helpers in 2018-19.
