He also worked as a personal trainer at JDyer Strength and Conditioning, developing and implementing program designs for collegiate and high school athletes while also working with adult clients.
A native of Monkton, Md., Class was an all-conference offensive lineman at the collegiate football level. He tallied All-Liberty League accolades at the University of Rochester before playing his final two seasons at Towson University. He earned a spot on the Dean's List in five different semesters and was named to the Colonial Athletic Association Academic All-Conference squad in both 2012 and 2014.

Hayzlett joins the Skyhawks from North Carolina State University, where he was a volunteer statistical analyst consultant for the Wolfpack men's basketball program for two seasons. He created data visualizations for analyzing player shooting and scouting Atlantic Coast Conference teams while also analyzing team substitution patterns by optimizing player and lineup efficiencies. He created an end-of-the-year binder showcasing all advanced analytics regarding player development and team improvement.
A Wapakoneta, Ohio native, Hayzlett has also worked as a remote video analyst for the Phoenix Suns since April. He contributed in player analysis for the drafting process by tagging video and reporting.
Hayzlett was a student manager for the Bowling Green State University men's basketball program and also served as an assistant varsity basketball coach at Sidney High School in Ohio.

As a sophomore, Marrow played under current UT Martin assistant DeAndre Walker at Columbus State Community College. Marrow averaged 16.6 points, 4.0 assists and 2.7 rebounds per game in 2013-14, including a career-best 33 points against Cincinnati State on Feb. 12.
Marrow wrapped up his collegiate playing career at Slippery Rock University, where he was a team captain while playing in 46 games over two seasons (2015-17).
Hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, Marrow was a standout guard at John F. Kennedy High School, graduating with a 4.0 Grade Point Average. He was a conference MVP and all-state honorable mention recipient who led the Fighting Eagles to a conference championship and a season-long ranking in the state of Ohio.
