MSSU basketball signs 6-10 center

(From MSSU Lions Athletic News)

Missouri Southern men's basketball coach Jeff Boschee has announced the signing of Dexter Frisbie to a National Letter of Intent to attend Southern beginning in the fall of 2016.

Frisbie, a 6-10, 280 pound center, is a native of Brumley, Mo. where he has prepped at Iberia High School for coach Steve Scholfield. A three-year letter winner for the Rangers (with his senior season yet to be played), Frisbie has been a three-time first-team All-Conference selection, as well as being named All-District three times and All-State this past season. He was also the MVP of the MFA Break Time Oil Shootout.

Over his career, Frisbie has averaged 20.7 points per game, 6.2 blocks and 8.4 rebounds per contest, while averaging 74 percent from the field and 81 percent from the free-throw line. He helped the Rangers to a third-place showing in the Missouri Class Two Playoffs in 2013 and a second-place finish this past year.

The son of Angel and BJ Frisbie, Dexter plans to major in computer science at Missouri Southern.

"We are very excited to add big man Dexter Frisbie to our family," Boschee said. "He has great size and some of the best hands I have seen for a big man. We feel he can become one of the next great bigs that Missouri Southern has produced. He is very mobile for his size and has great touch around the basket. We feel very fortunate to be able to sign someone of his caliber in this early signing period."
