  • Japan - Levanga Hokkaido (2012–2013)

Catron joined Levanga Hokkaido for the 2012–2013 JBL season, playing his first season in Japan after signing in July 2012.

Catron’s stint in Sapporo ran into mid-December 2012, with reports noting he parted ways with Levanga Hokkaido after 20 games, and his published season line for that run listed 11.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game.

In Levanga Hokkaido’s 2012–2013 JBL roster, Catron played alongside imports and key rotation pieces including German big man Tilo Klette and American forward Jai Lewis, with Japanese veterans and guards such as Takehiko Orimo and Tomokazu Abe also appearing in team statistical leaderboards for that season, and one published box score recap from late November 2012 credited Catron with 14 points and eight rebounds in a game where Klette also featured in the frontcourt rotation.

COLLEGE

Catron started his college career at the University of Oregon in 2006.

He helped contribute to the team by hard work and effort, helping the team to a NCAA Elite 8 appearance, before losing to the soon to be champion Florida Gators.

He was a key player for the Ducks in the 2008/09 season, leading the team in rebounds, steals, and assists (15.9 points, 6.7 rebounds per game) his senior year at Oregon.
