Travis Wilkins is not playing this season in junior college basketball, he is currently enrolled at Denmark Tech College in Denmark, SC just taking classes while trying to graduate this spring.





Last week, Wilkins decided to sign with a Division One program and will have three years left to play at the four year level starting next fall.





"Travis Wilkins signed today with Coastal Carolina University," announced Coastal Carolina associate head coach Don Hogan. Wilkins, originally from Spartanburg, SC, played his freshman season last year at USC-Salkehatchie in Walterboro, SC.





Wilkins joined the team after the Christmas break last year and averaged 11 ppg for USC-Salkehatchie.





This past summer Wilkins transferred from USC Salkehatchie with plans to attend the College of Southern Idaho but left this past September before ever suiting up for the Golden Eagles.





"Travis is a big-time athlete and plays hard up the middle, we were disappointed last year when he decided to leave USC Salkehatchie but we wish him the very best," said USC Salkehatchie head coach Travis Garrett.
