Dexter Akanno To Redshirt The 2019-20 Season

The question on the header of Dexter Akanno’s Player Preview this season was “What will Dexter’s role be in his first year with the Golden Eagles?” That question has been answered.

He will be redshirting.

Marquette freshman guard Dexter Akanno will redshirt this season to focus on development.
