Deividas Dulkys Turning Heads

Senior to be Deividas Dulkys has garnered the attention that is the reward for working hard. After a big spring AAU season that garnered double digit offers, Deividas got into the gym and pushed himself even harder. In the summer AAU season it showed as Deividas rocketed up the recruiting rankings, brought new coaches into the gym, and got the media types talking. Rivals.com had Deividas making a leap from #149 in the '08 class in the spring to a 4 star guard ranked #67. Scout.com ranked Deividas as the #11 player in the prep school ranks. Even those as the highest level took notice. NBADraft.net scouted Dulkys as the 10th best player in the Reebok Championships likening him to 10 year NBA veteran Bob Sura!

"We’re very excited about Clarence joining our program," Michael Peck, Head Coach for Findlay College Prep said. "He brings a lot to the table in terms of physicality, athleticism, and skill. His skill set and ability match our up-tempo style of play and his physicality will allow him to compete among the nation’s best," Peck added. "I am really excited to come in and apply myself on and off the court. This move will help me to continue to become a better player and person," Trent said. "The area is really nice and I will get the attention that I need, when I need it. The style of play will fit me really well and with the good group of guys returning there it will be a real fun year," Trent added.

Trent played at Gig Harbor High School in Washington this year averaging 15 points, 12 rebounds, 5 blocks, and 4 assists. The 6’7, 230 lb. forward is focusing on interest from Kentucky, Kansas, UCONN, and Arkansas.

The national schedule, schooling, and the year round training factored into the decision. “Everything is really nice here,” Liggins said.
