"Jeremy Efferding is a freshman who had a tremendous fall for the Aggies by getting to the finals of the ITA Regional here in October. During that tournament he beat several nationally-ranked players, gaining confidence with every result. Jeremy's biggest asset is he never takes points off and does not give his opponent anything. He is always making the opponent make shots to beat him. He is very solid off of both sides and is a tremendous returner. He is a very smart player and finds ways to win. Jeremy has a great attitude on the court, he stays very positive and believes in his abilities. He is very coachable and I believe will have a tremendous impact on this team." - Aggie Head Coach Steve Denton
