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 point total of 765 as of
Feb.18h, Hunt’s academic excellence and athletic abilities attract attention. Recently,
he caught the attention of the recruiters from the University of Northwest 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
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 Couch 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.
