Carl Pierre will spend his final college basketball season at Rice, the UMass senior announced on Twitter and Instagram on Thursday.
The Boston native spent four years as a Minuteman and was a captain for the past two. He’s UMass’ second-leading 3-point maker all time (286). Pierre announced his intent to enter the transfer portal March 17. Though Pierre was a senior last year and played four years at UMass, he has an additional year of eligibility due to a COVID-19 exemption.
