Kahlig Inks Professional Contract in Spain

Former UF All-American Greg Kahlig recently signed with Forza Lleida and will continue his basketball career in Lleida, Spain.

Kahlig will compete in the second pro league, which is called Adecco Leb Gold.  The first regular season game will take place on Oct. 3.

The Ft. Recovery, Ohio native ended his career with a total of 1,877 points, the fourth highest total in school history.

The 2014 GLIAC Tournament MVP led the Oilers to a 24-6 record last season after averaging 24.5 points per game. He also chipped in 4.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists per contest. Kahlig shot 50.2 percent (235-of-468) from the floor, 42.3 percent (90-of-213) from three point range and 81.5 percent (176-of-216) from the charity stripe for Findlay during his senior season.

Kahlig had three games of over 40 points during the 2013-14 campaign, which included a GLIAC record 55-point outing in the Oilers 104-74 win at home over Walsh in the semifinals of the GLIAC Tournament. He also hit a school record and GLIAC Tournament record ten three pointers in the game.

His 736 points scored on the season is the third most any Oilers player has scored and his 90 made three pointers ranks second all-time at UF.
