Fun celebrating these seniors and the men’s basketball program tonight. Great to hear their testimonies of how God has worked in their lives and excited for what He has in store for them! #DefenderWay
Had to carry through on the annual basketball senior 🥩 dinner. Grateful for this group that has been a blessing to Dordt and our family these past 4 years. Great group of guys!
Congrats @coachvh4dordt! Well deserved. Grateful for all the years you have faithfully led and loved young men, including myself! 10 conference titles in a college career is unreal! Can someone fact check how many other active college coaches have double digit conference titles?!
Senior 🥩 supper was a hit! Jackson, Drew, Austin, and Shane have given so much to @DordtHoops and Dordt as a whole. So proud of the men they have become and what Lord has in store for them next! #DefenderWay
@DordtHoops banquet for the last time. These past six years as a coach have been a true blessing. Thanks to all the players, coaches and Defender Nation for the love and support you’ve showed our family. Special thanks to my amazing wife, Kara. Go Defenders!
Great day to be a Defender! Congrats to @DordtWBB on being National Champions!
We will be finding confetti everywhere in the Lindbergh van in weeks to come 😂 great problem!
He said he was practicing his long passes. He told me not to worry cause he brought his own ball so he wouldn’t put lumps in the regular ones. There is no coincidence that he reached the accomplishment he did today. The little things matter!
🧵 of a young Luke story!
For players who don’t think practicing the little things are important: I’ll never forget an instance the fall of Luke’s freshmen year. My office is right next to the gym and I hear a ball slamming against a wall extremely loud.
It’s Luke dribbling from one baseline as fast as he can and throwing the ball the length of the court, some 60+ feet as hard as he can against the wall at a specific spot he was trying to hit on the wall. I asked him what he was doing.
Congrats to Luke Rankin on breaking the career assists record tonight at Dordt in just 3 seasons! Luke makes his teammates better in so many different ways. Been blessed to see him grow as a man of faith and leader on this team. @Lukerankin6
Exactly 4 weeks until we take the court for the start of the 2023-2024 season! We’ve had an exciting off-season and can’t wait to play our first game on October 27th⚔️
Congrats @crusaderball23 on reaching 500 wins this past weekend! Loved playing for you!
You got a few more grey hairs since the CSCA days, but no one doubts the love and commitment you show your guys! You are a big reason why I got into coaching. Good luck on the next 500!
