- Known for his outstanding effort, competitiveness, and conditioning on the football field, then on the mat for the wrestling team.
- Despite having never wrestled before, Kevin competed as a heavyweight his last 2 years at UB and was a force for Ron LaRocque, who was also a football assistant coach.
