David Trickler played both basketball and baseball for all four years.  Despite standing just 5-foot-6 he was an All-Little Eight and honorable mention All-Mason Dixon Conference selection in basketball.  His coach, Bill Pegram, called him "the best middle man on the fast break in the state of Virginia."

A four-year starting point guard, he played in all 91 games of his collegiate career.  He directed the H-SC offense, which averaged 84.7 points over his four years, including a school-record 93.6 in 1965.  He had 336 career assists and is still among the H-SC top five career leaders in that category.  In baseball, he was an All-Mason Dixon Conference selection as a senior.

He currently serves as athletics director, football coach and basketball coach at Norfolk Academy.
