Jason Crowe (basketball)

He graduated from Cal State Northridge in 1999 and played 13 years as a professional in Europe, South America, Iran, Australia and New Zealand.

He transferred to American University in April 1996, signing with the Eagles men's basketball program for the 1996–97 season.

[3] Crowe was expected to make the Matadors a potent offensive threat, but despite flashes of brilliance, the transition was not as smooth as coach Bobby Braswell would have liked.

Crowe first joined the La Crosse Bobcats of the Continental Basketball Association for the 1999–2000 season, but was released on November 12, 1999.

[6] In early 2002, Crowe moved to Ukraine and signed with BC Kyiv where he spent the rest of the 2001–02 season.

Crowe moved to Iran for the 2005–06 season, signing with Petrochimi Bandar Imam on a $30,000 a month contract.

His wife, Irene, spent the season with him in Iran, but due to the Islamic-ruling government which requires strict clothing cover for women in public, she often did not leave the house for three to four weeks at a time.

[10] Crowe's next stint brought him back to Europe, trialling with Polish club Anwil Włocławek in November 2006.

His season began with a Waikato club record 16 assists in a win over the Nelson Giants, just hours after arriving from Los Angeles.

[16] To cap off the season, he was named the league's Most Valuable Player[17] and led the Pistons to the championship, winning the best-of-three Finals series 2–0 over the Wellington Saints.

[21] Crowe was named Assist Champion for a third time, and guided his team to the Grand Final where they were defeated by the Auckland Pirates.

[27] In June 2014, Crowe was named the head coach of the Verbum Dei High School basketball team.
