"Thanks Coach Corey for not giving up on me. Coach Watters. Thanks to my parents - for letting me take my path and believing in me."
Why do you play?
Brother played. Trying to be like him. Got better, got more feel for the game. I don't like anything else, this is what I have to do.
What the last year has been like?
After the season, found out a few schools were looking at me. Got more motivated.
Now I am in the gym more. Not relying on my natural talent anymore. Being here flipped a switch.
How do you feel about the upcoming season?
Whole different ball game. More talent. Guys with experience. Playing to get offers. Different kind of vibe. Last year we competed hard.
Can't imagine what this year is going to be like - can't wait.
Why did you come to BSC?
Better opportunity. Knew coach Duncan. Knew he had good connections. Coaches believed in him. Play a big a role in my life.
They look out for me. They are my guys. All my friends were here too, so it was super easy to feel comfortable. Easy option.
Advice for kids looking to play sports in college?
School work is number one. If you have to miss practice to take care of school, do it. Work on your game.
There is always someone looking to take your spot.
