Salpointe grad Denny could be on the move after this season

After making the All-Atlantic Sun Tournament team last March, Salpointe Catholic grad Talbott Denny was poised for his best college basketball season. But he tore a shoulder labrum in Lipscomb University’s preseason practice, underwent surgery and has redshirted this season. Denny will graduate in May with a mechanical engineering degree and then transfer for his final year of eligibility, which is becoming increasingly popular in college basketball. With the help of Pima College coach Brian Peabody, Denny will look for another school at which to pursue a master’s degree while finishing his basketball career.
