That pretty much describes the game the 6-foot-2, 185-pound combo guard as well as he has the play style where he can perform at multiple positions and allow his feel of the game to dictate what happens on the court. Reynolds is looking at some small college options after helping lead Henley High School to the 4A state tournament last week.
“We weren’t big but we were a super tough, hard-working group of guys where it’s not ‘I’ but we all play for each other,” Reynolds said. “We kind of created a bond where it’s all or nothing. I transferred from Mazama to Henley and I haven’t played with a lot of my friends since I was little and this season has been great. My coaching, my teammates, and everyone has been super supportive rooting everyone on and it’s been awesome.”
Getting accustomed to his teammates at Henley took a little bit of time but Reynolds not only came in but became a major contributor. “During the year it’s been different because switching programs of course is a little interesting,” Reynolds said. “But I think I’ve fit in good and we all played well together. I’ve been seeing the floor, defense, and all-around shooting have been good.”
With the season complete, Reynolds is looking forward to playing at the next level and three schools are in the mix: George Fox, Simpson (Calif.), and OIT. George Fox head coach Maco Hamilton was in attendance in Henley’s first game at the state tournament, a loss to Stayton.
“George Fox – I want to be faith based and I’m interested in that,” Reynolds said. “I also really want to pursue my major which is business administration, but if not then education. I’ve visited all three and I live in town with OIT so I’ve been there a lot. I’m just waiting to hear back from coaches to see what there is.”
As he waits to hear back from what kind of scholarship/financial package each school may be able to offer, Reynolds can reflect back on this past year. While Henley was two and out at the state tournament, getting to play in the event was something he’ll never forget. “It was a great experience – it was a fever,” Reynolds said. “Once you get here once you’ve got to come back, you want to come back. Playing under the lights with hundreds of people watching you it’s an incredible experience.”
