Talked with his Mom and Dad at the Ironton vs Athens game the other night and they are really proud of him, as well they should be. Good job Dennis.

Gee whiz - what a surprise! Who would ever have predicted this? [Duh!]
Way to go, Dennis! Well-deserved CONGRATS!
I regulary watch WLWT [Cincinnati Channel 5 - TW channel 20] News, and am disappointed that they rarely mention NKU in their sports coverage.
Granted, there are many colleges in that area; and UC, Xavier, Miami, Dayton, [even UK and Louisville] are bigger "names" and deserve more coverage. But I really wish they'd show NKU every once in a while. Dennis's exploits/records alone deserve more media attention!

Doesn't surprise me at all. Dennis was one of the best pure shooters I have ever seen at the high school level and I'm sure he has only gotten better. Congrats to a fine young man on his accomplishment.
