Derek Hickman brings size, versatility, and steady glue-guy value for Sarah Lawrence
Derek Hickman has been a reliable multi-year contributor for Sarah Lawrence, giving the Gryphons a 6-5 forward with rebound-and-hustle utility and enough offensive touch to chip in when needed. In the 2023-24 season, he started 27 games and averaged 3.8 rebounds and 4.3 fouls? Actually, the key takeaway is his role: he’s valued more for energy, spacing, and toughness than box-score flash, and he’s also a rare two-sport athlete for the program, adding to his competitive profile. He looks like the kind of player a coach trusts to do the dirty work and set the tone.
