==Hall of Fame==

===Brandon Drennen===

One of the main complaints about coach CPU before he was fired was his horrible treatment of Drennen, a 5'8 shooting guard. According to this coach he was "too small" and as such hardly played and spent his entire junior season on NA, not appearing in a single contest. However, coach gohuskies arrived for his senior season and in the first practice Drennen showed off his skills shooting three-pointers. Drennen earned a starting spot with his stellar preseason play and in his first game of his senior season he shot 9 of 15 from 3, scoring 39 points and leading Dover to a season-opening victory. Drennen went out with a bang his senior year earning first-team all-Conference honors. In honor of Drennen the new Pasture at Dover Coliseum had the three-point line named after him. Drennen currently is an assistant coach for the Dairy Farmers and in the offseason runs a shooting camp for League 15 high schoolers.
