Meet Devin Philio

Devin Philio D3 Week
Junior
Men's Basketball


Hometown: Aurora, CO

Major: Economics


Top CC Academic Moment/Accomplishment: I took non-fiction writing with Steven Hayward, in the class we wrote a bunch of stories then edited each other's stories as a class. Editing day for my story was one of my most rewarding moments at CC. I got a lot of praise and great advice from Professor Hayward on how to expand the world I had created. It inspired me to pursue a minor in creative writing.  


Special Talents/Skills: I’m above average at Chess, a good writer and good at poker

Hobbies: Basketball, Spending time with friends, Poker, Chess, and Cooking (sometimes)  

Proudest Moment at CC: My proudest moment would have to be scoring the last two buckets, including the game winner against Trinity at home my sophomore year. It was a big moment for me because I was facing adversity that game. Also, my entire family came to that game and it was the first game for a couple of them. On top of that, we had never beaten Trinity and winning home games was a big focus for us. It all came together to be a very special moment for me.


Community Service Experience: I enjoy doing the freerice.com questions because it is so simple yet it helps people who really need it. All you do is answer multiple choice questions online but every correct answer is a grain of rice donated to someone in need. If everyone did it for 30 minutes a day the amount of food donated would be unbelievable.
