After making waves in the regular season, Baldwin High product and Southern Union State Community College men’s basketball freshman Isaiah Dennis racked up some postseason awards as well.
The Union-Recorder All-County Boys Basketball Player of the Year in 2024, the sharpshooting guard was named Second Team All-Alabama Community College Conference after averaging 17.1 points per game and shooting 35.9% from 3 in his first season at the collegiate level. Dennis also scored 24 and 32 points in his team’s two NJCAA Division I South District Championship tournament games. Those efforts were good enough to land him on the All-Tournament Team. The 32-point effort marked the fifth time this season that he met or surpassed the 30-point plateau.
Dennis and the Bison lost the South District Championship game 98-90 to Wallace State CC back on March 8, ending SUSCC’s season. Dennis went 6-of-14 (42.9%) from the floor and 11-for-22 overall to lead his team in scoring that final ballgame.
