I want to congratulate two former students who excelled both in the classroom and on the basketball court.
The first is Shamar Chester (wearing the Queens College Basketball T-shirt). Mr. Chester graduated this past May, double majoring in Corporate Finance and Economics.
The EuroLeague Basketball (i.e., Greece) signed him to a “big” contract. The EuroLeague 2024-2025 season kicks off on October 17, 2024, with the regular season concluding on April 11, 2025.
The second is Kevin Jamieson (wearing the red T-shirt). Mr. Jamieson is an international student (alumnus of Jamaica College) from Jamaica, West Indies.
He is transferring to a university in New Mexico.
The university offered him a full scholarship, an apartment, and a monthly stipend. He will be a tremendous loss to QC.
Both students are talented basketball superstars who starred in both the QC basketball program and the classroom.
