Wake Forest's Resilient Walk-On Walk-On Legend
Stephen Prendergast, a non-scholarship guard who earned his spot on Wake Forest's 2015-16 roster through open tryouts, averaged a modest 0.3 PPG, 0.0 REB, and 0.0 AST with a 14.3 FG% per ESPN stats—classic deep bench energy from Mahwah, NJ. His differentiator? Pure grit and hustle as an underdog who beat the odds to suit up for the Demon Deacons, embodying team-first intensity without ego. No injury flags or recent updates post-college (last active ~2016), but his walk-on story screams locker room glue guy—perfect fit for programs valuing heart over hype, though unlikely for high-major rotation roles today.
