Greg Sprink

Greg Sprink (born June 29, 1985) is an American former basketball player known for his collegiate career at the United States Naval Academy (Navy) between 2004 and 2008, where he was the 2008 Patriot League Player of the Year as well as an honorable mention All-American. He never played professionally, serving required duty instead in the U.S. Navy. As of 2017 he works for a construction material wholesaler in the Houston, Texas area.

High school Sprink, a native of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Encinitas, California, was an El Camino High School role player who garnered little attention from colleges. He primarily shot three-pointers and deferred to three teammates who were all committed to playing at NCAA Division I schools.

Navy, however, sent Sprink multiple recruitment letters, which caught his attention.

As a junior, the Midshipmen showed improvement by putting together a 14–16 record. Sprink scored his 1,000th career point on February 2, 2007 against Bucknell and finished the season averaging 16.9 points per game, which led Navy. He became the first Navy player to win the Patriot League award.

Post college Sprink graduated from the Naval Academy in 2008. He went on to serve in the U.S. Navy until 2017, although he is still in the U.S. Navy Reserves. In 2017 he co-founded Admiral Distribution, a construction material wholesaler in the Houston, Texas area, where he serves as in a business development capacity.
