SIKESTON — Sikeston’s Trey Jenkins signed with Southwestern Illinois College on Tuesday, at the Sikeston Field House.

Jenkins — the 2019 Standard-Democrat Player of the Year — joins a team that is coming off of a 20-12 campaign in 2018-2019, and lose all four of its double-digit scorers from this past season.

Overall, Jenkins said that the coaching staff is what attracted him to the junior college and is looking forward to what the next two seasons with the Blue Storm bring.

“What attracted me the most to SWIC was the coaching staff because of what they’re about and what their program’s about,” Jenkins said. “I also just liked the school in general.”
