Career highlights and awards | |

Kendle moved to Australia in 2015 and earned the QBL Most Valuable Player award as a member of the Toowoomba Mountaineers. The following year, he joined the Bendigo Braves and helped them win the SEABL championship. He was also named league MVP and grand final MVP. He went on to have multiple stints in the Australian National Basketball League (NBL) and in 2020 he coached the South West Metro Pirates in the Queensland State League (QSL). In 2021, he was named NBL1 North MVP.
Early life
editKendle was born and raised in Jeffersonville, Indiana, and grew up playing basketball. As a sophomore at Jeffersonville High School, Kendle was nearly cut from the basketball team due to his small stature; he was 5 feet 7 inches (1.70 m) tall and weighed 140 pounds (64 kg). He was told he wasn't good enough to make the varsity basketball team. The head coach on the senior varsity team wanted to cut him, but the junior varsity coach knew his father and they had a mutual respect. He kept Kendle on the team, but he rode the bench for the whole season. The next year, he hit a six-inch growth spurt and worked really hard physically. He subsequently started on the varsity team as a junior.[1]
As a senior in 2005–06 playing for coach Jimmy Just, Kendle averaged 15.1 points and 4.4 rebounds per game. He helped lead the Red Devils to a 23–2 record and the Hoosier Hills Conference Championship, and subsequently earned first team All-District, All-Region and All-Area selection.[2]
During his high school years, Kendle's mother battled ovarian cancer. Kendle has said of those tough times, "It all happened for a reason. It made my character stronger. Having that perseverance in you is a key to life in my opinion."[1]
College career
editInjury troubles and second chance
editAs a freshman in 2006–07, Kendle attended Olney Central Community College but managed just two games for the Blue Knights after sustaining a severe foot injury that required surgery. He returned home to Jeffersonville for the 2007–08 season and fully recovered. After his left foot healed, he re-joined the Blue Knights for the 2008–09 season,[3][4] but on the first day of practice, he broke his right foot. After three months out, he came back and broke his right foot again in two different places. Undeterred, Kendle subsequently changed his diet and went through a vigorous therapy program.[1]
His comeback in 2009 saw him earn a try-out with Bellarmine University, despite his commitment to being a walk-on at the University of Southern Indiana, a rival school of Bellarmine. He played well in the trial at Bellarmine, and a few days later, he was given a full scholarship.[1] Bellarmine was only a 20-minute drive from his family home which allowed him to spend time with his ill mother and gave his family the chance to watch him play regularly.[1]
Bellarmine University
edit2009–10 season
editKendle began playing for the Bellarmine Knights during the 2009–10 season. Stringing together his first full college season, Kendle led the Knights in scoring with 17.7 points per game and subsequently earned second-team All-GLVC honors. During the 2010 GLVC Tournament, he helped his team win the event while earning Tournament MVP and All-Tournament Team honors.[5]
2010–11 season
editIn his second season playing for the Knights, Kendle garnered numerous awards. The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) named Kendle to their 2011 State Farm Division II All-America Team, and Daktronics (voted on by college sports information directors) named Kendle to their Third Team All-American squad.[6] He also earned NABC Division II All-Midwest Region first team, All-GLVC first team and GLVC Player of the Year honors after averaging 17.3 points and 3.3 rebounds during the regular season. Kendle helped lead Bellarmine to a 30–2 record and a trip to the NCAA Division II Elite 8 for the first time in school history. He went on to lead them even further as the Knights won their first NCAA Division II National Championship in 2010–11. Kendle subsequently earned NCAA Division II All-Tournament Team honors.
2011–12 season
editIn August 2011, the NCAA granted Kendle two more seasons of college eligibility after deeming his first two seasons at Olney Central did not count due to his injuries.[7][8] As a junior in 2011–12, Kendle once again led the Knights back to the NCAA Division II Final Four and earned All-GLVC first team and NABC Division II All-America Team honors for a second straight year. In 33 games for the Knights in 2011–12, he averaged 19.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.1 steals per game.[9]
On September 28, 2012, it was announced that Kendle had signed with an agent to pursue professional basketball opportunities and would not return to Bellarmine for the 2012–13 season. Kendle left Bellarmine as the only player in school history to be named to the NABC All-America Team two years in a row, and was on track to become the all-time leading scorer. Kendle ended his career fourth on Bellarmine's all-time scoring list with 1,792 points.[10]
