Boys’ basketball: Former Price guard Trey Dickerson is much in demand
To say that Trey Dickerson is good at adjusting to his surroundings might be an understatement.
He came to Los Angeles from Queens, N.Y., as a sophomore and was a starting guard at Van Nuys Montclair Prep when the school dropped its sports program. Then he went to L.A. Price, where he was a standout on the 2011-12 team. Colleges wanted him but he wasn’t an NCAA qualifier, so he went to prep school, God’s Academy in Dallas, Texas.
He committed to Murray State last year and was taking summer classes, then reversed course and enrolled at a junior college, Williston State College in North Dakota, where he has become one of the top junior college guards in the country, with scholarship offers from Washington, Washington State, Iowa, Nebraska, Arkansas and St. Louis.
“I’m getting calls from all over,” Price Coach Michael Lynch said.
Cold weather, hot weather, it doesn’t seem to matter with Dickerson.
“I think it’s made me mature a lot more as a player and person going to different locations,” Dickerson said.
Added Lynch: “”His survival skills are excellent.”
