If you check the box score after a Samford University men’s basketball game, you will not find Nathaniel Henderson’s name on a stat line. Henderson's name will not appear on the Bulldogs’ roster, either. Yet Henderson made a tremendous impact on Samford’s basketball season without ever getting a minute of playing time. His story is featured in a recent Southern Conference video produced by 2012 Samford graduate Jordan Gotfredson. A former Samford soccer player, Gotfredson is now assistant director of multimedia services for the SoCon.
