“I am so very excited to announce that I have COMMITTED to Abilene Christian University.  First, I want to thank God for giving me the ability to play basketball and helping find an exceptional fit for me.  Thank you to my amazing family who has chauffeured me to practices, games, and always supported me in every way that they can.  Thank you to may teammates who make me better everyday and always push and encourage me.  Lastly, thank you to may coaches: Coach Kruger, Coach Fowler, Coach Durler, Drew and Nicole and the Ohlde Elite organization and Coach Washington.  They have pushed me to be where i am today and I would not be here without them! Coach Goodenough and crew, I can’t wait to join your family.  GO WILDCATS!”
