Daniel Dixon had D2 offers coming out of high school, but after holding his own in a series of high-school all-star games, he decided that he wanted to invest in himself, and asked his parents for their support.
The 6’5″ shooting guard from Great Falls, Va., made the right choice, signing on Wednesday with William and Mary from the CAA.
“It’s definitely a big day. I’ve been waiting for this day for a while,” Dixon said.
His mother, Terri, and father, David, were on hand for the occasion.
“We’re extremely proud of our son,” Terri Dixon said. “He’s worked hard, and I think his focus has been fantastic and awesome. This has been something that Daniel has been working toward for a long time.”
“Education is a powerful and important thing. His passion for basketball continues, his burning desire for it. I’m glad that he’s getting to the Division I level and hopefully beyond that,” David Dixon said.
