MERRILL - Merrill native David Jesperson will come back home after spending a year playing college basketball at Pepperdine University in California.
That's because he'll get to play for the UW Green Bay Phoenix.
"Being able to see all my family, friends, having family and friends come to games, that'll definitely be huge," says Jesperson. "Green Bay has always been the school I've been interested in playing [for], so when I found out about the new coach, and I already had a teammate that plays there—I played with him in AAU—so I already had that connection. And then when they contacted me it really just kind of really sparked my interest, and I took my visit and I loved it."
