Zach DeChenne
Basketball/Football
This week we are proud to recognize Grants Pass High School Senior, Zach DeChenne.
Zach DeChenne is a senior at Grants Pass High School and a multi-sport athlete. He has established himself on the football gridiron after missing his junior year. Zach was a defensive back, a wide receiver, and returned punts. He says his best sport is basketball and is currently one of the reasons the Cavemen have surged to the point of a playoff berth after losing two likely starters early in the year. As a point guard, he distributes the basketball to try to help teammates score and can add to the scoring when needed. A ferocious defender, his 5-foot-9 frame can often be seen negating a much larger opponent. As a team captain, he is charged with keeping teammates upbeat and focused. He credits former coach Jeff Houston, who has coached Zach since 2nd grade with making him a better person. Zach is looking for a career in finance after college.
