Scherbenske was a walk-on basketball player at the University of Kentucky. He began his collegiate career at Oral Roberts, where he redshirted his freshman season. He later saw action in three games in the 2007-08 season for ORU including games against Liberty, Texas Southern and Florida International.

Scherbenske prepped his senior season in high school at Oak Hill Academy where he shot 47 percent from 3-point range and helped lead the Warriors to 40-1 record and the No. 2 national ranking.
