Marqus Blakely - 2010 State Farm College Slam Dunk Competition

University of Vermont mens basketball senior Marqus Blakely won the 22nd annual State Farm College Slam Dunk Competition on Thursday night at the Indiana Convention Center. Blakely becomes the first Catamount to win the dunk contest, after he defeated Bradleys Chris Roberts in the final on ESPN.

ESPN announcer Brad Nessler opened the show by picking Blakely to win the competition and the senior started off with a 360 in the first round to earn a 45 out of 50. In his second dunk in the first round Blakely had teammate Evan Fjeld start off with a dunk that he then picked out of the net and also slammed. The dunk earned him a perfect score of 50 as he ranked second going into the semifinals. It also came it at No. 3 on ESPN's SportsCenter Top 10.
