Stephenson Signs With Cincinnati

Lance Stephenson, one of the best wings in the country and the final major incoming freshman without a college, has signed a financial aid agreement with Cincinnati and will join the team for the 2009-10 season.

"As a big guard, Lance brings playmaking ability and versatility to our team, along with his talent for scoring. We look forward to getting Lance here for summer school and building our team for the upcoming season."
