DAVIDSON, N.C. – For the second straight season, Davidson's Nathan Ekwu is a nominee for the Allstate NABC Good Works Team®. This esteemed award honors an outstanding group of student-athletes who represent the sport's finest in the areas of community service and leadership among their peers.
A junior from Enugu, Nigeria, Ekwu has spent the last two summers in his native country assisting Access to Success (A2S), a Christian-based non-profit organization founded by fellow countryman and Davidson alum Andrew Lovedale.
In addition to conducting camps and clinics for local youth in Nigeria's Benin City, Ekwu has also taken part in a number of community service efforts in the Town of Davidson.

The Gift of Basketball
Athletic departments and sports information directors across the country nominated the 181 NABC and the 97 WBCA student-athletes for the prestigious honor. Two special voting panels, headlined by former Duke University basketball athlete, two-time NCAA® champion and seven-time NBA All-Star Grant Hill, and former Notre Dame basketball star, two-time Nancy Lieberman Award winner and current WNBA player Skylar Diggins, will select 10-member teams from both the NABC and WBCA, comprised of five student-athletes from the NCAA Division I level and five student-athletes from Divisions II, III and the NAIA. The final roster of 20 award recipients will be unveiled in February.
Since 2008, Allstate has partnered with the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) as a sponsor of the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team®, which recognizes the off-the-field impact college football student-athletes have on their communities.
