DA Points

All-American golfer | 3 PGA Tour wins | Class of 1999

There are two versions of D.A. Points’ answer to the question: What’s your happy place on campus?

“My PC answer: The Assembly Hall — aka State Farm Center," says the former All-American golfer. "Growing up in central Illinois, I have always been a devoted Illini basketball fan. This prompted me to join the Orange Krush.

"I have seen so many amazing games there. To this day, I don’t miss a game. I bleed orange and blue.

“My other answer: C.O. Daniels — aka Clybourne on Daniels. My close friends and I would go on Thursday nights — after our homework was done, of course. One of our friends was a manager.

"For my senior year, it was our spot. We would play darts and other bar games. We had some epic nights there."
