Vol State student Isaiah Perry plays forward position on the Pioneer basketball team, but he only just recently got into the sport. Basketball talent runs in Isaiah's family, and his cousin, Chelsey Perry, plays in the WNBA. However, Isaiah didn't start playing basketball until his last year of high school. “I was on the basketball team in high school, but I didn’t get in until my senior year,” said Isaiah. “I didn’t want to sit on the bench anymore, so I started working my tail off. It caused me to never get cocky because I know what it’s like to sit on the bench and never play.”
