Adam Emmenecker Biography

Adam Emmenecker is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on December 3, 1985 in Saginaw, Saginaw, United States. Adam Cannata Emmenecker (born December 3, 1985) is an American basketball player who completed his college career as a point guard at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa in 2008. During the 2007-08 basketball season, Emmenecker, who had been a walk-on (non-scholarship player) for his first three years at Drake, emerged from obscurity to lead the Bulldogs to a sweep of the regular-season and tournament titles in the Missouri Valley Conference, and received numerous honors for his performance as both a player and a student. Born in Saginaw, Michigan, Adam’s parents are Michael A. Emmenecker and Jo Ann B. Cannata. He has one sister, Sara C. Emmenecker.

Emmenecker’s 2007-08 season, and indeed his Drake career, may best be summed up by Keno Davis, who was a Drake assistant under his father, Dr. Tom Davis, when Emmenecker arrived as a walk-on, succeeded his father as head coach for the 2007-08 season, was named 2008 MVC Coach of the Year, and won multiple national Coach of the Year awards:

Emmenecker became the MVC’s most-decorated player of the 2007-08 season:

Going into the 2007-08 season, Drake was lightly regarded, returning only one starter, forward Klayton Korver, from a 2006-07 team that had won 17 games. In the MVC’s preseason poll of media members, league coaches, and league sports information directors, the Bulldogs were picked to finish ninth out of 10 teams, and no Drake player was selected even as an honorable mention on the league’s preseason all-conference team. Emmenecker did achieve a personal milestone two days before the Bulldogs started their season. After three years as a walk-on, he was given a full athletic scholarship for his final season.

Emmenecker’s accomplishments on the court in 2007-08 were arguably eclipsed by his academic record. As of February 2008, he carried a 3.97 grade point average in three majors—management, finance, and entrepreneurial management. He was chosen as the 2008 Academic All-American of the Year in men’s Division I basketball by the College Sports Information Directors of America, and was also named the MVC Scholar-Athlete of the Year in men’s basketball.

He received a Presidential Scholarship, a partial tuition scholarship “for academic achievement,” and also walked on to the basketball team. In his first season (2004–05), he played in 12 games, with his most extensive game action being six minutes against Western Illinois. As a sophomore in 2005-06, he played in 29 games, starting two, and averaged seven minutes. The following year, he became the Bulldogs’ top reserve guard, averaging 11 minutes per game in 23 games before his season ended with a shoulder injury against Missouri State.

When the MVC announced him as season MVP, it called him “perhaps the most improbable MVC Player of the Year (based on pre-season expectations) in league history.” Entering the 2007-08 season, he had played 58 games in three seasons, but had only started two, and had career totals of 57 points and 64 assists. His 2007-08 season totals in points, assists, and rebounds all were at least double his previous career statistics in each category.
