Luke Wood is a late bloomer, in terms of basketball experience.
But once the Emmanuel Christian School student got hooked on the sport, it became a passion – one that has now led him to a college opportunity at Ozark Christian College in Missouri.
Wood, a 5-foot-8, 150-pounder, was a guard for the Warriors, who played in the Panhandle Christian Conference during his first three years at ECS before the program moved into the Alabama High School Athletic Association this past year. “He works so extremely hard,” Golden said. “He is certainly deserving of this opportunity and I can’t wait to hear him climbing up the roster spots because I am sure it will happen. They will have to run him out of the gym.”
Wood said he was excited about the opportunity to play at Ozark Christian College, a member of the National Christian College Athletics Association Division II. The school is located in Joplin, Missouri, near the Kansas and Oklahoma borders in southwest Missouri. It is just under 13 hours from Dothan.After making connections with the Ambassadors’ coaching staff, Wood visited the campus and had an opportunity to play with members of the team.
