Fraser Ashworth comes to North Star for his first summer. The Dundee, Scotland native goes to the University of Glasgow where he is studying psychology. Like many of his countrymen, he played quite a bit of soccer and rugby growing up, but eventually settled on basketball as his main sport. He plays quite a bit and helps coach a team of 12-13 year olds. He's also a climber and he'll be instructing climbing as well as mountain biking this summer.
