Tall Eaton rises as UCLA center pivot
UCLA junior Tall Eaton a 7 foot 3 inch 270 pound transfer from Cypress College leads the Bruins with 13 blocked shots and 3.9 rebounds per game. A former high school washout who worked as a mechanic Eaton played at Cypress to a state title and earned interest from 70 four year schools and a Suns pick. He admits he was out of basketball for three years and didn’t feel full coordination until later, yet his height and shot-blocking give UCLA a unique interior presence.
