Continue ReadingCentral Catholic will be deep and talented this year but leadership will be needed and DeRay Seamster will be one of the seniors looking to fill that role. The all-around 6-foot-2, 175-pound combo guard is fully healthy and he’s up to the challenge. Seamster spent the off-season working hard on his game, playing AAU ball with International Elite while trying to grab the attention of the many college coaches watching his games.
“Overall the summer was about getting better and getting some exposure,” Seamster said. “It was just working hard basically, getting myself in a better position this season.”
A versatile backcourt performer, Seamster can score the ball in a variety of ways. But to help out his team more this season and prepare himself for the next level, the senior honed in on being a floor leader. “They wanted me to develop as a point guard and I feel that my skills got a lot better,” Seamster said. “I’m just improving each and every day, day in and day out, that’s what it’s about.”
One of the goals was to get some college interest and Seamster noted that he’s been hearing the most from Chaminade and Western Oregon. He’s keeping things open and hoping that more will come during the year. “That’s pretty much it right now,” Seamster said. “I just want to get an offer to play somewhere next year.”
The immediate job at hand of course is this year. Seamster knows the Rams have talent and the potential to achieve their goals and he’s ready to get going. “We want continue to get better as a team and grow throughout the season,” Seamster said. “And then finish with a state championship.”
Seamster currently ranks as the #31 ranked player in the PrepHoops Oregon Class of 2020 rankings.
