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 3.692
grade point average for the fall 2010 semester and a cumulative basketball
total of 765 as Feb. 18h, 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 Region X and District H Championship teams, and he played with
the Storm in last year’s 2010 NJCCA 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 Riverside High School
in Durham before enrolling at DCCC. He hopes to pursue a career in sports
management.
