What movie would Dino recommend for him: This year we’re going with ”The Preppie Connection” which is a film based on a 1980s drug smuggling bust involving high school students from Choate. The student running the ring avoided prison time and is now a lawyer in Connecticut.
Interesting nugget o’interest: Kevin served as the Vice-President of Syracuse’s Uplifting Athletes chapter last season and we always applaud athletes getting active in community service.
