Tony made us proud. Watching Tony Danridge win the Slam Dunk Contest in Detroit a few days before the Final Four was something I’ll always remember. I was fortunate to see the competition in person, but I think I speak for all Lobo fans who watched on ESPN that we were all gushing with pride for a special young man.
Overcoming the broken leg to help lead us to a conference championship then capping his Lobo career with the dunk title is a nice way to end your collegiate playing days. I couldn’t be more happy for Tony, who exemplifies everything we want in a Lobo basketball player.
