PLAYER BIO:

My name is Eli Chandler, and this is my first year with DistinXion. I chose DistinXion because I like the culture of the program, and I wanted to have the opportunity to get elite coaching. I also wanted to get experience playing high level competition. Lastly, I wanted to be able to not only improve myself on the court, but develop myself as a man. I love the culture. Although this is my first season, I have a friend that has been in the program for several years. From what I have heard the program meshes faith, competition, and working hard which are 3 core pillars that I try to pursue in life. My ultimate goal is to work as hard as I can and develop myself as much as possible as a player and a teammate. I also would like to play basketball in college. Off the court, my goals in the classroom are to have a 3.9 GPA or above. My career aspirations are to be a professional pilot. Aside from that, I would like to coach at any level at some point to use what I have learned to help the younger generation. My dream job is to be a commercial pilot. In my free time, I enjoy working out, hanging out with friends, making YouTube videos, and doing just about anything outdoors. Some fun facts about myself are that I have had Tommy John surgery, and I have a YouTube channel called The Average Prodigy where I interview D1 athletes about their story and experiences playing at that level.
