Phelix Davis is freshman at Western Texas College who didn't have a hard time adjusting to the college environment. 
Davis, a 5-11 guard for the men's basketball team, came to Snyder from Houston.
"I was really informed that is was a place that would really push me and make me better," he said. "What I like about WTC is the class sizes and the teachers. The class sizes aren't so big so I can really interact with other students, and if I have any questions in classes, the teachers are willing to help me."
Davis decided to come to a junior college to get a taste of what attending a university would be like.
"I hope to gain knowledge so that when I do transfer to a major university, it won't be much of a difference since junior college prepared me," he said.
Transitioning from the big city life to small town life in Snyder wasn't a big deal for Davis.
"It wasn't really hard for me to make the transition from my life prior to college because I have parents that are really supportive and help me along the way," he said. " The hardest part has been transitioning to Snyder. I'm from such a large city that has a lot of people and a lot of things going on all the time."
Davis and the Westerners will take on New Mexico Military Institute at 7 p.m. Monday at the Coliseum.
