River City Early College is proud to celebrate one of our own! Sophomore Brycen Jones is taking his basketball skills to the international stage after being selected by EXACT Sports to compete in Barcelona, Spain.
Brycen’s basketball journey began at just three years old when he picked up the sport at the local YMCA. Since then, his passion for the game has only grown. With the support of his family—especially his father, who has encouraged him every step of the way—Brycen has worked tirelessly toward his dream of playing in the NBA.
When asked what advice he has for his fellow students, Brycen shared: “You have the same 24 hours as everyone else—use them wisely.” His words highlight the importance of hard work and determination in achieving success.
At RCEC, we know that reaching big goals takes dedication, and Brycen is a shining example of perseverance. His journey is an inspiration to us all, and we can’t wait to see what he accomplishes next!
