College career

[edit]

He averaged 14.1 points and 2.5 assists per game.[10]

It made me become a man. I learned a lot of things here in my four years, not only on the court but off the court — probably more off the court.”[21] After the season Carrington was invited to the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament.[22]
