Student Success Stories
Part 2
Kimani hunt, 19, a Dean’s List student at
Davidson County Community College, is a standout 6’5” player on the DCCC Storm
basketball team who serves as a role
model for other students both on the court. With a 3.7 grade point average for the fall 2010 semester and a cumulative
basketball point total of 765 as of
Feb.18th, Hunt’s academic excellence and athletic abilities attract
attention. Recently, he caught the attention of recruiters from the University
of Northwestern Ohio who offered him a full scholarship there to play
basketball. Named to the 1st team All Freshmen in 2009-2010, Hunt
served on the 2009-2010 Region X and District H Championship teams, and he played
with the Storm in last year’s 2010 NJCAA National Championship tournament. “Kimani
Hunt has been a leader for us the last few years both on and off the court,”
said DCCC Storm Head Coach Matt Ridge. “His
high standard of excellence has helped us win many games, but it’s also helped
him achieve a lot of success in the classroom, and we are certainly proud of
him.” Ken Kirk, DCCC’s director of athletics and wellness, agrees. “Kimani is a kind and considerate student
athlete. He helps tutor other players who look up to him as an academic
leader, he communicates well with other students as well as the storm fans, and
he represents DCCC so well wherever he goes.” Hunt graduated from Riverside
High School in Durham before enrolling at DCCC. He hopes to pursue a career in sports management.
