Coach Smith on Tyler: “Tyler comes to the Mountain after a successful senior year and state tournament appearance at Beech High School in Hendersonville, Tenn. At 6-5, Tyler brings great size to our team at the wing and has the ability to score from the perimeter as well as around the basket. He loves the game and loves to be in the gym improving every day. I expect Tyler to make an immediate impact for our team on both ends of the court.”
