Born: 1959

Danny began playing croquet in 2002 and immediately became involved in the North Carolina District administration, club building, teaching and tournament directing. 

His most cherished croquet moments are, in chronological order, winning the 2005 National Championship, partnering with Jeff Soo to win two of three doubles matches in the 2005 Solomon, winning the deciding match to win a test for the USA during the 2006 MacRobertson Shield, winning three of three singles matches during the 2008 Solomon, partnering with the Goat to come within one turn of winning the 2008 British Open doubles championship.

At age fifty, with thirty-one years of service, Danny will be retiring March 31, 2009 from R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, where he spent the last fifteen years as a GIS and IT professional.  He will be focusing his efforts on “being the best croquet player I can, developing others and promoting croquet”.

In Danny’s words concerning his wife of thirty-one years, “God has blessed me with Danna, the most beautiful, most supportive, most loving person and best friend in the world and without her I would be nothing”.  Their daughter Brook works in sales for a Raleigh, NC based Technology Company and their son is an aviator for the US Marine Corp.
