Coffee County senior basketball player Wyatt Day signed a letter of intent to play college basketball next season with Martin Methodist on Friday at a ceremony at Central High School. Day, used mostly at the win g this past year, is projected to compete as a combo guard at Martin.
Coach Micah Williams was effusive in his praise for Day saying: “Wyatt has had a great career here at Coffee County and his signing represents a huge accomplishment for him.” Williams went on the say that Martin was impressed with Wyatt’s scoring ability and obvious offensive talents. “Wyatt understands the game of basketball and is a student of the game” added Williams.
When asked why he chose Martin, Day liked the idea of being close enough to home so that his mother and sister could see him play. “Pulaski was cool, I liked the small town feel” said Day. “They also have a good business program for my major” added Wyatt. Day thinks he will end up as a shooting guard at the college level and looked forward to the opportunity to impress his coaches during a full JV schedule at Martin.
Martin Methodist is located in Pulaski, Tennessee and competes in the Southern States Athletic Conference as a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics(NAIA). Martin Methodist is coached by Scott Combs.
