  1. Go DEZ! I’m so proud of you and your accomplishments. What is momma gonna do now that her baby is leaving? (PARTY!!!) lol

  2. Congrats to all of the Dudley girls that have received scholarships. I have enjoyed watching them over the years. They bring a level of intensity to the defensive end that cannot be matched. I saw them win the state championship 2 years ago and they truly played as a team. Good Luck at the next level.

  3. Congratulations to Dez on becoming a 49er! I know Coach Aston was high on you from the first time she saw you play. Niner Nation expects big things on the court from you in the future. Go Niners!
