Sophomore Basketball

Eric has finished another year of basketball.  He was a member of the sophomore basketball team at Desert Hills High School.  They had a winning record and their losses were almost always very close.  The basketball program at DHHS is quite strong with lots of competition at the junior and sophomore levels.  Eric had a transition year with the coaches moving him from the post positions to the perimeter spots (2-3 guard positions).  He is six feet tall now but some of his teammates had grown even taller.  Eric is an excellent free throw shooter and shot 86 percent on the year in games.  He also has an excellent shot when he decides to take it.  Eric is truly a team player and will always pass it if the other guy seems to have a better shot or position.  He also got some game time on the JV squad and it was fun to see him play alongside some of his neighborhood friends such as Ryan & Zach.  Best of all, Eric is an excellent student with a 3.9 grade point average!
