However,foronereasonoranother,bothendeduplookingforanewschool.
ForBoyd,thetripthroughtheAmeri-cansouthwesthasbeenadecentone.Fromopeningupherplaying career inCaliforniathrough her sophomore year to winning achampionship with Natchitoches CentralHigh School in Natchitoches, Louisiana,Boydhasfoundaloveforthegame.
Nonetheless,thatlovewasalmostlostaf-terherfirstyearincollege.
“Iplayedforayearandtookayearoff,”Boydsaid.“Weweren’tverygood.Wekeptlosing,andlosingandlosing.WemaybewontwoorthreegamesthewholeseasonandIfeltlikeIwasnotdevelopingasaplayeranddecidedIdidn’twanttogothere.”
Thankgoodnessfore-mails.“Isentoutacoupleofe-mailstosomecoachesinMississippi,”Boydsaid.
“(CoachAlexander)wasthefirstonetoreplysothat’showIgothere.HecontactedmewhilehewasinJapan,”Boydsaid.“Hewaslookingfor
afour-playerthatcouldpass,scoreandreboundlikeIcould.Hesaidwhenheopenedupthee-mailitwaseverythinghewaslookingfor.”
Boyd’smove wasn’t without hesitation.As the oldest of four siblings, itmeantthatshewouldhavetogiveupherjobatanorthopedicclinicinNatchi-tochesandmovealmosteighthoursfromhome.
Thatmovefromhomealsomeantthathersiblings–a16-year-oldbrother,a12-year-oldbrotheranda4-year-oldsisterwouldprobablynotgettoseeherplayincollege.
“Thattripisprobablynevergoingtohappen–withamomthatworksandthreekids.”Boydsaid.“It’sa7-hour,35-minutedrivehome.”
Eventhoughit’salmostaneight-hourdrivehome,Boydknowsthatshemadetherightchoice.Boyd’smothermadesureofthatwhileshewasgrowingup.
“Schoolalwayscomesfirst,”saidBoyd.“Therearenosportswithoutschool.Iwasprettymuchan‘A’student.Igraduatedhighschoolwitha3.0.Nomatter
howtalentedyouare,youcan’tdoanythingwithoutaneducation.ThatwasjustthewayIwasraised.”
WhileBoydgrewupplayingbasketball,Brunsonfoundhishardwoodcallinginhighschool.
Afteragrowthspurtbetweenhissophomoreandfreshmanyears,Brunsondecidedtoputhisheighttohisadvantagebyplayingbasketball.
Up until his ninth grade year, Brunsonwas a football player andwantedtotrysomethingnew.Thatthemeof“tryingsomethingnew”followsBrunsonthroughouthislifetodaywithvariousadventuresinhighschoolandcollege.
“Iplayedfootballandtriedoutforbasketballandmadeit,”Brunsonsaid.“Ididn’twanttoplayfootballanymorebecauseIstartedtogrowsoIjuststuckwithbasketball.”
However, football andbasketballweren’t theonly two sports theGeorgianativetriedoutinhighschool.
“Ijustwantedtotrysomethingnew,”Brunsonsaid.“Iplayedsoccermyse-nioryearinhighschoolandwasprettygoodatit.Iactuallyonlygotscoredontwice.”
Nonetheless, Brunson knew his callingwhenhe fell in lovewith the gameof bas-ketballhissenioryearbuta lackof interestfromareacolleges sent theGeorgiabasket-ballplayertoTexasforhisfirstseason.
“I didn’t have any schools come afterme so I signedwithTyler Junior College,”Brunsonsaid,“butthenIwantedtotrysome-thingnewandcametoNortheast.”
OneofBrunson’sthingsthattheNorth-eastsophomorehaslockedinonandhasnottried to change is his mind about what hewants to do in life.The6-6power forwardwants tobecomea lawyer, thankstoa littlefriendlyadvicefromhismother.
“WhenIwasyounger,mymomalwayssaidItalkedbackandthatIshouldbecomealawyer,”Brunsonsaid.“Ithoughtaboutitandwantedtotryitout.Ilikecrimeshowsandallofthat.”
Brunson’smotherhasbeenadrivingforceinhislifeandinthelivesofhistwoolderbrothers.Whetheritisgrantingthemheight(Brunson’smothertowersat5-11)orallowingthesiblingstodotheirownthings,it’sbeenafamilyaffairforBrunson.
Brunson’soldestbrotherisattheNorthCarolinaCentralUniversitypursuingalawdegreeattheageof23whilehisotherbrother(20)washisteammateatTylerJuniorCollegeinTexas.
