Answer
Hello Nnamdi,

There are ways for you to get exposure so you can possibly play at the college level. The first way would be to see if there are any AAU teams in your area. There are allot of local tournaments and National tournaments that college scouts attend. The second way would be to attend a Community College and try out for there team. The Community College is a great stepping-stone to the four-year schools. You will be amazed at the talent level and this will be a great barometer to see if you got what it takes to play at the four-year level.
