that brings high energy for us every night. His work ethic and ability
to learn have set him apart from other players. We were fortunate that
he came from a great program in Helena and was detail oriented when he
arrived in Brooks. He is a great kid and most deserving of this
scholarship. We are excited to be able to work with him for another
season before he leaves for Vermont.”
The Bandits Organization would like to congratulate Anthony and his Family on his athletic and academic future.
