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 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 Championship teams, and he
played with the Storm in last year’s 2010 NJCAA National Championship
tournament. “Kimani Hunt had 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. “Kilmani 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 DCC 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.
