Dillon has been traveling the country and playing competitive basketball since the 4th grade. Paul Washington, the coach of Findlay Prep, has been around Dillon and has helped coached Dillon since the 4th grade. PJ Washington, Spencer Washington, Dillon Glendenning, Chris Giles and Jack Schweitz have know each other since the 4th grade and have played together many times. Paul, PJ, Spencer, Chris and Jack have been an inspiration for Dillon.

When Paul Washington called and offered Dillon a spot on his superstar national team, Dillon accepted knowing he would not get the same minutes as if he stayed and played for his high school team in Texas. Dillon is a fighter and will rise to the occasion and not disappoint. He is a very humble kid with his feet on the ground.

Dillon loves the game of basketball and so does his dad. Dillon is a down to earth kid that would do anything for anyone. Dillon has told me many times he wants to be a doctor so he can help the sick be cured of their illness. Who knows maybe Dillon will become a doctor and move to Hawaii?

I am blessed by the lord beyond my wildest dreams, and thank him everyday. I truly am overwhelmed by all of the comments, support and generosity of the fans and Hawaii people.

Thank you for all of your kindness towards Dillon. I was going to move west somewhere in California but now have changed my mind and will move to Hawaii. This is where I want to live, with truly the best people on this planet!

Mr. Glendenning, your son brought joy to people cheering for both Findlay Prep and Kahuku, and every other team there at the Classic. This photo says it all. You’d have to go to the United Nations to find a group more diversified like this, and you wouldn’t find them in bliss like this, either.

Jenny Talls,
If I recall correctly, he was the last of the reserves sent into the game. That only built momentum for his fans. The crescendo was setting off the local Richter Scale. Also, his haircut. He looks more like a Rhodes Scholar than a typical basketball player; his teammates all have buzz or shaved haircuts. His red hair already makes him unique, but that hairstyle and length is definitely something he is comfortable in. I think the ‘Iolani kids in the audience who started the groundswell could relate to him on that level. He’s comfortable in his own skin, so to speak, and everyone saw that. I’m 99.999% sure of this.

I look at this picture closely and I am now convinced that Dillon Glendenning is a bridge builder of World Peace. He is a Unifier of All Peoples.
