Coach high on Curry's talent

Little Rock Southwest Christian Academy Coach Charles Baker isn’t necessarily surprised that junior forward Eric Curry recently received scholarship offers from Oklahoma State and Virginia Commonwealth.

Curry, 6-8, 195 pounds played for Southwest Christian this past season and is playing for the 17-under Arkansas Wings in a Nike Elite Youth Basketball League during the spring and summer.

“He’s really active, he has a nice skill level for a 6-8 kid,” Baker said. “He’s still only 16 years old. His best basketball is still ahead of him.”

Arkansas, Vanderbilt, St. Louis, Iowa and Oregon are showing interest in Curry.
