What has the last year been like?
Ups and downs. Happy to get an offer from Bryant and Stratton. Had a good senior season in high school. Had good teammates that helped me get better. Coach Hixon was a big impact. He helped me work on my game and always looking to get better. Coach and Uncle Willy Anderson was my trainer and mentor. He instilled in me values like wake up and start doing stuff on your own. Turn into a dog on the court.
How do you feel about the upcoming season?
Feel like we are gonna have a good year. Everything counts. We are going to put it all on the line. We are gonna shock a lot people.
Why did you come to BSC?
Wanted to have a new environment. Get away from home. Play for a good coaching staff - Duncan, Morrow, AJ. Those three coaches are going to help me improve my game and get me to the next level.
Advice for kids looking to play sports in college?
