Quotes
Amari Davis: "The coaches showed that they were interested in me. That if I came to the school, I would be safe, and I'll get better as a student and a young man," said Davis. "Coach told me, 'Usually in Ohio, you have got Cincinnati, Xavier, Dayton. You have all those schools, but in Green Bay, you just have Green Bay.' I had a feeling that as soon as I get on campus, if I like it, I am probably going to commit here. They said if I put in the work, they don't have a problem playing freshmen."

Rocky Rockhold, Trotwood-Madison Head Coach: "Amari is a smooth lefty with an almost automatic mid range jump shot and plays downhill offensively. He is a four year starter and has been to two final fours and one state finals in his three years here. He has already eclipsed 1,000 points and is well on his way to becoming Trotwood's all-time leading scorer. He is an upstanding young man, all around better person than he is a player and that is saying a lot. He has a tireless work ethic. I can't recall a time since the 7th grade he has missed a workout of any kind. Amari will be a great edition to Green Bay and we are excited for him and his family to take the next steps in his basketball career."
