Physical, active rebounder who gave La Salle frontcourt toughness
In the 2008-09 season, Vernon Goodridge stood out for La Salle as a hard-nosed forward who could finish inside and create extra possessions on the glass, including a 23-point, 7-rebound outing against UConn that showed his ability to compete against high-level competition.[1] La Salle’s roster notes also frame him as a local product with prior Division I experience, which suggests a player who brought maturity, physicality, and role-player reliability rather than flashy scoring.[5] He looks like a good fit for a team that needs effort, rebounding, and interior presence more than usage-heavy offense.[1][5]
