Quote from Coach Smith: “Garrett made huge strides last season and became a consistent contributor off the bench for our team. Garrett’s 6-9 frame allows himself the luxury of being able to affect the game on both ends of the court. Garrett has the ability make a lot of shots around the basket and to score over smaller opponents. Garret’s confidence was at an all time high at the end of last year and we expect him to be our go to guy in the post this year.”
