Dodge City Community College forward Nick Pringle dropped his top five schools Wednesday on Twitter.

Pringle will be choosing between Alabama, Georgia, Ole Miss, West Virginia and Wichita State.

The 6-foot-9 forward is considered one of the best recruits on the junior college circuit this season. He narrowed his list from a group of schools that also included Appalachian State, Arizona State, Mississippi State and Tulsa.

“I’m a skilled, versatile forward that impacts the game in many ways,” Nick Pringle told WVSportsNow in October. “I play with a relentless motor, I rebound, guards one through five, pass, spaces the floor, rim protect, screen, all standing at 6’10. I’m a guy that loves to bring energy and play harder than everyone else.”

Dodge City, which is in Kansas, opened its season Monday against the JV team from Kansas Wesleyan. Dodge City won the game 118-64. Pringle, who started the game and played 21 minutes, had eight points on 4-for-5 shooting plus 10 rebounds.

Nick Pringle played a season at Wofford

Pringle played the 2020-21 season at Wofford. He notched 15 appearances off the bench during the campaign, averaging 2.0 points and 2.1 rebounds per game.

The forward did have one memorable performance — albeit it was against Carver College, a bible school in Georgia that plays in the National Christian College Athletic Association. Pringle had a double-double of 17 points and 11 rebounds in a monstrous 111-37 win on Nov. 28, 2020.

Pringle attended high school at Seabrook (S.C.) Whale Branch.
