One of the most exciting players to ever don a Cardinal uniform, Dockery helped the Cardinals to their most successful season in the college’s history in 1982. With Dockery running the show on the floor, the Cardinals advanced to the national tournament for the first time, finishing third and completing the season with a 33-3 mark.

Dockery established two school records his sophomore season – free throws made in a game (22) and free throws made in a season (218). He hit 86 percent of his free throws that season, which still ranks No. 17 on the all-time NJCAA list. His 22-of-23 free throw shooting exhibition against Lon Morris in 1982 ranks 11^th on the all-time NJCAA list.

He was named honorable mention NJCAA All-American as a sophomore and was a two-time all-Texas Eastern Conference selection.

Dockery played two seasons at the University of New Mexico after leaving the college.
