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 and off 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 Champion teams, and he played with the Storm in last year’s 2010
HJCAA 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 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.
