David Lee Holt NKU Hall of Fame
NKU’s all-time leading scorer with 2,007 career points, Sanders was a tremendous outside shooter with incredible range. He finished his career as the Norse’s all-time leader with 356 3-point field goals, including 114 treys during the 2000-01 season, and the all-time leading scorer in the Great Lakes Valley Conference. Sanders averaged 16.5 points per game during his career and capped his four-year stint at NKU by pouring in 20.3 points per contest as a senior. He is the only men’s basketball player to ever be named to the All-GLVC teams all four years of his career. He was also named honorable mention All-American by Division II Bulletin in 2002 after setting the NKU career record by scoring in double figures in 47 consecutive games. Sanders helped the Norse earn a pair of NCAA Division II Tournament berths in his four years, and NKU advanced to the regional finals his junior season before losing to Kentucky Wesleyan.
