| APSU ATHLETICS
APSU athletics has a rich past full of notable student-athletes who have helped the university in becoming one of the Ohio Valley Conference’s most historic programs.
The story of these former household names in the community have gone unnoticed through the years, but they should never become silenced. The All State now highlights the career of one of APSU’s most decorated student-athletes, Drake Reed.
Just under 20 minutes away from the heart of campus, Drake Reed graduated from nearby Northeast High School in Clarksville, Tenn. Over the course of his high school career, he earned All-State recognition twice, three all-district team selections, the Leaf-Chronicle All-Area MVP and much more. Reed also averaged 23 points, 12 rebounds and five assists in his senior season before attending APSU.
