WSSU signs SW Guilford's Guard Terrell Leach

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina  --  Guard Terrell Leach of Southwest Guilford, one of the most prolific prep scorers in the state last basketball season, has signed with and is enrolled at Winston-Salem State.
 
“This was the best option for Terrell, and he’s excited about being there,” Coach Guy Shavers of Southwest said. “He had some prep-school options but didn’t want to have to go through moving to another school again after one year, so he felt like he needed to go to a four-year school.” 
 


Leach (6-0, 175) averaged 30 points, 8.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists last season and led Southwest to a 27-1 finish, with the only loss to Reagan in Round 2 of the NCHSAA 4-A playoffs.
 
Leach made a non-binding commitment to WSSU in March, then changed his mind and looked at junior-college and prep-school options, Shavers said. After careful consideration, Shavers said Leach decided to re-commit to WSSU even though he won’t be eligible for the 2013-14 season.
