High school coach on UNC basketball signee Tyler Nickel: “We have never had a talent like him"
Posted Jan 23, 2022
Carey Keyes had long envisioned a bright future for Tyler Nickel. The East Rockingham senior has had a brilliant high school career, with his college home set with tradition-rich UNC. “We have never had a talent like him. We are a small school, less than 700 students in rural Virginia,” said Keyes, the boys basketball coach at East Rockingham in Elkton.
