On Sunday, Lakes picked up his first DI offer, second offer overall. This one came from Southeast Missouri State and head coach Rick Ray.
“I’m really excited about it,” Lakes said of his Southeast Missouri State offer. “They were the first DI team to show interest in me. I really like the coaching staff. Coach (Adam) Gordon is who I’ve mostly been in contact with But I really liked the coaching staff during the visit.”
On Monday, he picked up another offer. This one coming from Maine.
“It’s a good school,” Lakes said of Maine. “They have some nice young talent on the team and a coaching staff that is eager to turn the program in the right direction.”
SEMO and Maine join Maryville, a DII program out of Saint Louis, Missouri, as Lakes current offers. While the latest programs to send offers have come from the DI level, Maryville is still right in the thick of it with Trevor Lakes.
“I really like Maryville,” Lakes said. “I’m going on my second visit there this month. I’m still very excited about Maryville and it’s program.”
The reason for Lakes spurt of offers has really been centered around his shooting ability. At 6’7, he’s not going to be easy to stop when he decides to light it up from the perimeter.
“(Colleges) said they see me as a stretch four or a wing that can help spread the defense out and cause mismatches.”
Lakes has also been getting some more interest as well. In the last month, outside of his current offers, he has also heard from Saint Francis (IN), UMKC, and Marist. Lakes and Grassroots Indiana 2017 Blue head to Saint Louis, Missouri this weekend for the Adidas Three Stripes event.
