Darius Wilcher '24 Recruiting Profile

I have a big passion for basketball I have been playing since I was 6 years old where my mom was my first coach and I ended up loving the game instantly; it makes me feel calm. My future goal is to play college basketball and if given the opportunity I would be extremely grateful. My dream is to play at the professional level and I know that given the opportunity at the collegiate level, that would prepare me for that level of competition. 

I am the guy that can play on and off ball, I like to create opportunities for my teammates and it’s not always about me getting a bucket if my teammate has an open look. I take pride in defense as well as my team. I am coachable and can handle constructive criticism. I work hard on and off of the court wether that be helping my mom at home, doing the extra things my Coaches ask of me like making sure my teammates turn in their forms, ect., putting in extra work outside of practice or helping my teachers at school. 

I have also volunteered for various basketball camps for the youth. Being able to continue my basketball career is more than basketball, its being able to continue my education and hopefully get college paid for. My mom has always taught my siblings and I the importance of knowledge and I hope to be able to continue to make both her and myself proud.
