Darrion Scott '12 Recruiting Profile

Hi I'm A 6'3 200 pound shooting guard who likes to attack the rim but can also shoot. I am a scorer. I have been playing at the highest levels of basketball since the age of 8, and even since then I have always been a competitor. I graduated from Fair School class of 2012 in Minneapolis last year with a 3.27 GPA and a score of 21 on the ACT. I also averaged 23 points per game and led my team to a 23-3 record in my senior season. I played AAU basketball for Howard Pulley picking up interest from school all over the midwest. I even received scholarship offers from a number of schools. In the late spring of 2012 as I was getting closer to making my college decision my father had a stroke. Wanting to be closer to my family I decided to spend this school year at Dakota County Technical College under coach Jay Pivec, and that is where I'm attending currently. I told Coach Pivet what was going on in my life and Coach Pivet and I  decided it would be a smart idea for me to red-shirt this year and save my eligibility because I am a quilifier and should be playing for a university next year, now that my father is doing well. I am 100% focused on basketball and I am ready to play for a university next year!
