Dating back to a three-game stretch last week for the KCKCC men’s basketball team, Joshua Dames was named the KJCCC Division II Men’s Basketball Player of the Week based off his performance.

Dames helped the Blue Devils to a 3-0 mark last week as the squad defeated Labette Community College, Hesston College and Highland Community College.


The freshman posted 14.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in the three contests, while scoring a season-high 22 points against Highland. Prior to that game, Dames posted a double-double of 17 points and 10 rebounds.


For the season he is third on the team with 9.6 points and has 4.1 rebounds per game.


Other nominees for the KJCCC Player of the Week were Allen Community College’s Brayden Thompson and Johnson County Community College’s Tymer Jackson.
