1. How popular of a sport is basketball in the Bahamas? How old were you when you started to play?
It's the second most popular sport behind track and field. I started playing at the age of 15.

2. What reason(s) led you to choose Dakota Wesleyan over other Universities?
I really enjoy the one-on-one attention the teachers here offer.

3. How does this year’s team compare to last year’s?
I feel as though the team has a bit more weapons, making us that harder to defend. Once everyone stays healthy.

4. How much of an adjustment was it getting used to the Iowa/South Dakota winters?
Just had to wear more clothes than I was used to.

5. Who wins in a quickness drill? You or Darrin?
Darrin has more space to move in Arizona and my island is only so big, so I never really reach top speed. Thats a tough one. lol.

6. Who wins in a 3-point contest? You or Chase?
Depending on the day. But Chase really shoots the ball well.
7. What was your first impression of the 'Worlds Only' Corn Palace?
I love the creativity the mid-west has to offer and if the corn would pop, without the oil, in this case.

8. GPAC team you would most like to beat this year?
I would love to beat all of them but we all already know the answer to this one - Sioux Falls.

9. Who on the team is most likely to have a career as a stand up comedian?
Chase he is a funny guy. I guess its because of the random facts he supplies the team with daily.

10. What’s playing on the MP3 Player before the game?
Most of the time some reggae and culture tones from Buju Banton.

11. Best memory so far playing at DWU?
The over time win over Morningside last year.

12. Favorite things to do in your spare time? (Hobbies or Interests)
Watch the History Channel.

13. What are your plans after graduation?
No plans yet.

13. Anything you would like DWU Fans to know about you and/or something you would like to tell the DWU Fans?
I really enjoy winning at all cost. And the I want the DWU fans to stand and cheer us on this entire season because there will not be any dull moments this year.
