Sophomore Stetson
Billings saw action in 31 of 32 games as a freshman in 2012-13,
averaging 6.5 minutes per contest. Billings views his freshman season as a
learning experience, giving him a chance to observe the habits of older, more
experienced players, which he applied to his summer workouts.
“I got a chance to learn a lot,” said Billings of his freshman season at
UALR. “I didn’t play a lot but I took advantage of that. I took notes from the
older guys to see what I needed to improve on to get more playing time. But
overall, it was an exciting experience, my first year around, and I got to learn
a lot, and I’m thankful for that.”
Assistant coach Joe
Kleine spoke on Billings’ attitude and work ethic through his first
year at UALR, which continues to stand out.
“Stetson is an everyday guy,” said Kleine. “He brings energy every day. You
never have to question where his mind is. When he’s practicing, he’s here, he’s
into it and he’s getting after it.”
