The Laurens, S.C., native has rushed for 700 yards on 85 carries, accounting for six touchdowns.  He has powered his way to a trio of 100-yard performances, including a 23-carry, 200-yard performance en route to South Atlantic Conference Player of the Week honors at Limestone. The 200-yard day against Limestone registered as the 37th all-time 200-yard rushing performance in Carson-Newman football history, and the first by a freshman. He also had a seven-carry, 149-yard, two-touchdown day against UNC Pembroke that earned him player of the week honors from the league.  Dendy broke the 100-yard barrier against Mars Hill on Nov. 2 with 110 yards on 12 carries.
