A native of Nicklesville, Va., Mark Dockery '11 joined a long tradition of men's basketball players to earn induction into the King Hall of Fame, and he ranks as one of the most prolific scorers to ever lace up his shoes for the Tornado.

Dockery poured in a then school record 684 points during his senior season, and graduated as King's all-time leading scorer with 1,881 points, with both marks eclipsed by Jordan Floyd in 2020. Dockery's 14.5 points per game average over his career ranks third all-time at King, and he holds King's record for three-point goals in a season with 141, as well as the career mark for three-point field goals with 388. In addition, he is third all-time in three-point field goal percentage (39.1) and free throw percentage at 80.3.

During his storied four-year career from 2007-11, the Tornado amassed an impressive .720 winning percentage, winning 95 games against only 37 losses. The only more successful consecutive four-year stretch of King basketball history started in 2006-07 and includes Dockery's final three seasons as a Tornado. During his career, the Tornado won the AAC regular season championship in 2007-08 and claimed the AAC postseason championship in both 2007-08 and 2008-09.

He earned AAC Freshman of the Year accolades in 2007-08 and was a first team All-AAC honoree before being selected AAC Tournament MVP as a sophomore in 2008-09. As a result of King's transition to NCAA Division II, the Tornado were without a conference home for his final two seasons, and not eligible for postseason competition in either the NAIA or NCAA.
