Player Spotlight: Dean Loock

This week's player spotlight is on Dean Loock, a first year Industrial Design major. I ran into him twice yesterday and I'm taking that as a sign that he wants to be featured on my blog. (He'll thank me later)


Dean hails from Grahamstown, South Africa, and actually knew Nisha (also from South Africa) before coming to SCAD. He also has a funny accent.

Dean's first season as a SCAD Bee saw him playing the number 1 position for 10 of his 12 matches--remarkable for an incoming freshman. Out of those 10 matches, Dean was able to clinch 5 of them making him one of the most valuable players on his team. With victories against both Oklahoma Baptist and Georgetown University, Dean proved that he has what it takes to hold the top position.


His doubles record is just as impressive. Partnering with second-year Caan Yaylali, the two tallied wins against Warner University, Northwood University, and Georgetown University.

Dean also does a fantastic Michael Jackson impersonation--



If you ask him nicely, he might just do the moonwalk for you.
