Now, our Test Ballon for the Winter months – Introducing #24, Cody Aiden Reece

Cody is a Junior on the Varsity Basketball 🏀 team. We took a few minutes to get the storyline behind this impressive 👏 young Man 👨.

 Cody Aiden Reece

#24

Hillsville, Virginia

Parents – Jennifer & Ricky Reece

Dream School 🏫 to play College Basketball for – University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill

Favorite part about being a member of the Boys 👦 Basketball 🏀 program:

A chance to play High School basketball, something that isn’t afforded to everyone. The opportunity to both play with and cheer on my friends and teammates.

Next up – we invited Cody to choose three of his teammates to offer one sentence on their favorite reason for loving ❤ their teammate.

Cody chose Ethan Richardson, Jay Burnette and Isaiah Easter to speak on his behalf…

Ethan – He always has fun and keeps it light for our team.

Jay – Cody is a great supporter for our Ball team.

Isaiah – Cody always calms our nerves and brings the energy.

Next up – We asked all four members of the Coaching Staff to do the same :

Head Coach Anthony Barnes – The style of play I like is a physical style and Cody brings that to my team.

Assistant Kris Richardson – Everyone likes him, a bit of a jokester off the court and when he’s on the floor he does all of the dirty work for us.

 Assistant Jason Stockner – I love his energy and his willingness to do what ever we ask of him.

Assistant Ryan Largen – Cody has a Dog 🐕 mentality. He plays physical, just goes out there and gets it done.

 The goal was at the beginning of the season to do this for each member of all seven teams and turn it into a playing (bubble gum style ) card for them to keep after their High School career is over.

Why choose Cody Reece as the example for an idea that just kept getting further delayed? Because Cody is all of those things that his Coaches and teammates speak of him. ” Lunch Pale ” is the example for Cody, just puts on a Hard Hat and gets the job done.

Aaron Sorkin has taught me one thing over the years – choose to use your Words for Good !!!

Ladies and Gentlemen – I present to you, Cody Aiden Reece…..
