Big-bodied, rim-protecting veteran post with injury-tested resilience
Swindle is a 6-11, 265-pound interior player whose value has come from size, rebounding, and shot blocking, with career averages of 15.3 points, 10.4 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks noted in JMU’s historical roster notes. His biggest differentiator is persistence: JMU describes his earlier seasons as limited by injuries at Virginia Tech before he finally got a real run of competition, which makes his production more impressive than the raw totals alone suggest. For a team, he fits best as a physical paint presence who can anchor the glass and give reliable interior resistance when healthy.[1]
