Ferndale Loses a Player.

Written Wednesday January 31st at 9:40 PM

The Eagles lost a player on Wednesday.

Ferndale’s Deondre Bonaparte has transfered from Ferndale to Ecorse according to a tweet from Endless Motor Sports.

The tweet read, “Big addition for Ecorse Basketball. 2019 guard Deondre Bonaparte has officially transferred in from Ferndale and will suit up for the Red Raiders next year. Skilled guard will immediately bring perimeter scoring and playing making ability @Kidddre”

The Eagles played Ecorse on December 16th at Ecorse in which the Red Raiders won 64-54.

This is a big loss for Ferndale but it’s not a killing loss for them. The Eagles are still a Junior heavy team and they have some quality players in Keelan Lucas, Will Scott, Teona McKeithen, and Brian Polozo.

The Eagles right now sit at 4-8 and 3-4 in the Blue. They will go on a three game road trip starting on Thursday when they go to Royal Oak. They are in a really tough district in Birmingham that involves powerhouse Birmingham Detroit Country Day.

It will be interesting to see what happens over at Ferndale for coach Tom Staten could they be better off without Bonaparte, that will be a question.

Stay tuned to OAA Now for the latest on this developing story.
