Sykes led the league in assist-to-turnover ratio three consecutive years and tied the school's single-game assists record with 16 in 2002-03. A Third-Team All-OVC selection as a junior and senior, he also posted 865 points and 165 steals in 113 career games.
 
He is currently the junior varsity boys coach at his alma mater, Mansfield High School.
