After switching high school to Fryshuset and joining its associated junior basketball team 08 Stockholm Junior Team, Schreiber would win yet another Swedish National Championship (for boys born 1987) and help his team finish in 5th place as well as grab an all-star reward in the Northern European Youth Basketball League (NEYBL).[1]

Schreiber played basketball at the prestigious private school Brentwood School located in Westwood, Los Angeles.
