(Monday, May 20; Sioux Center, Iowa)  Spencer Rochholz,  a senior at Adair Casey (Iowa) High School, has announced his intention to attend Dordt College and join the Defender basketball program.

“We are glad Spencer has decided to attend Dordt College.  He comes from a very good high school program and has enjoyed a great deal of success at Adair‑Casey.  His ability to score will help him transition from high school to college nicely.  Spencer is a competitor who will work hard during his time on our campus,” said Dordt College coach Ross Douma.

Spencer is the son of Connie Emgarten.  He plans to study exercise science at Dordt College.

Spencer will be joining Atlantic star Dalton Franken whom had previously committed to Dordt.
