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 students on or 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.18, 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
Freshman 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.
