Quote from Coach Smith: “Zack was a key contributor for our team last season. He led our team in three-point field goal percentage at 38%. We will need Zack to make open shots for us this year and continue to improve his ability to create shots off the dribble. Zack has great range and the ability to make the big shot. Zack will also be expected to increase his leadership role with the graduation of our five seniors.”
