“Becoming a program’s all-time career points leader is a big deal,” said NYA Athletic Director, Kelsy Ross. “It didn’t happen by chance for Te’. He’s invested a ton of time and energy into the development of his game, the NYA boys basketball program, and our school community as a whole. This accomplishment is a fitting addition to the already large legacy Te’ has imprinted as an NYA Panther.”
