After a great conversation with Head Coach Ben Tucker I am excited to announce I have received my first offer to Embry Riddle.
Thank you to @Section7Az and the AZ Basketball Coaches Association for all the work that goes into putting something like this together. Our guys at Centennial had a great time and for a lot of them got to experience for the first time. Now we get ready for the season.
