Hornsby wins UNCA dunk contest

Share


Keith Hornsby, the son of musician Bruce Hornsby, is a freshman on the UNCA men’s basketball team. The team looks strong and Hornsby looks like the real deal. The dunks are toward the end of the video. From a UNCA press release:

The UNC Asheville Athletics Department celebrated the start of the 2011-12 men’s and women’s basketball season with the first ever Dunkin’ at the Doghouse held at Bulldogs new home – Kimmel Arena Friday night.

The final event was the Slam-Dunk contest that had three Bulldogs participating in the event. The three players were senior guard Matt Dickey, junior forward Jeremy Atkinson and freshman guard Keith Hornsby. Each player had three rounds of dunks.
Hornsby won the event as he did a great job on all three of his dunks. Dickey made a late charge with his final dunk as he had teammate J.P. Primm throw him a ball from the top of the arena that Dickey caught and dunked much to the delight of the crowd.
