How the f**k did Connor Dethlefs go from playing JV basketball in college (yes, that is a thing) to finding his passion in graphic design? Connor graduated from Nebraska Wesleyan University in 2016 where he played one season on what was the objectively the best dual affiliated NCAA Division III and NAIA Division II JV college basketball team to ever touch the floor. After graduating, Connor was a Senior Coach at College Possible helping improve the ACT scores and college acceptance rates for juniors and seniors in North Omaha. After that, Connor moved on to the customer service team of ScoreVision, a software company working on fan experience. Today, Connor is a graphic designer at ScoreVision, and the Creative Director of Grit Player Services, David and Jake’s company that’s miraculously still in business despite their leadership. So how did Connor make the leap from coaching basketball to graphic design? And why do some colleges still have JV teams?
