Hoosier to play basketball at Virginia State

PETERSBURG, Virginia - For Petersburg basketball senior Marcus Hoosier, he likes putting different songs together in hopes to find that perfect mix.  But if one were to take the Crimson Wave's guard skills of anticipation, timing, defense and leadership, Hoosier forms the perfect mix.

The senior co-captain will take that perfect mix to play Division II college basketball at Virginia State University next season. Hoosier plans on studying audio engineering at Virginia State bringing together his two loves - music and basketball.

"I felt like that the coaches really cared. I like the whole rebuilding of their program there at Virginia State," Hoosier said. "They cared about the education part too which I liked. It's like a family there which is what I have here."

Hoosier also likes the fact that he will get to play in front of his family and carry on the tradition of going to Virginia State like his mother did. The Petersburg senior is hoping to bring that Crimson Wave pride to the Virginia State Trojans.
