Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Athletics

Ridder’s Remarks: Rocky could develop into a special player for us. He can score, get other people shot opportunities and make free throws. He’s a gamer who fears no one and has great confidence in his skills. He has a lot of tools offensively and defensively and has the ability to be a game changer. He works hard, is a great teammate, and our guys know how good he can be. He will give Eric (Lorenzi) a run for Newcomer of the Year recognition in the league.”
