Farmington Hall of Honor Spotlight: Ryan Dennis

FARMINGTON, Ark. — Farmington Public Schools and Farmington Athletics are proud to announce Ryan Dennis, Class of 2006, as a member of the 2026 Farmington Hall of Honor Induction Class. Dennis will be formally recognized during the Hall of Honor Induction Banquet on Wednesday, September 23, at 6:00 p.m. at Cardinal Arena.

A standout scholar-athlete and multi-sport competitor, Dennis represented the Farmington Cardinals from 2003-2006, excelling in basketball, football, golf and baseball. He earned All-Conference and All-State honors in both basketball and football, helped the Cardinals reach four state tournaments between the two sports and finished his basketball career with more than 2,000 points.

Dennis made an immediate impact as a sophomore. On the basketball court, he averaged 18 points and 10 rebounds per game while helping Farmington capture Conference and District Tournament Championships and advance to the State Tournament. His performance earned him All-Conference, All-Region, All-State and All-State Tournament Team honors. At quarterback, he also earned All-Conference recognition in football.

His versatility extended to the golf course, where he helped the Cardinals win back-to-back 1-AAA District Championships and advance to the AAA Regional Tournament in both the spring and fall 2003 seasons. Dennis also qualified individually for the State Tournament in each season.

As a junior, Dennis continued to raise the bar. He averaged 20 points and 10 rebounds per game in basketball and helped Farmington make its second consecutive State Tournament appearance, earning All-Conference, All-Region and All-State honors. On the football field, he led the Cardinals from the quarterback position to a State Tournament appearance while earning both All-Conference and All-State recognition.

Dennis capped his Cardinal career with an outstanding senior season. He averaged 23 points and 10 rebounds per game, earned another round of All-Conference, All-Region and All-State honors, and was selected to participate in the East-West All-Star Game. His senior season also included a remarkable career-high 45-point performance.

That same year, Dennis earned All-Conference and All-State honors at quarterback while helping Farmington return to the State Tournament. He also competed for the Cardinal baseball team as a first baseman and pitcher.

Today, Ryan and his wife, Megan, are raising their three children, Adalyn, Ellison and Reid. He remains connected to athletics by coaching his children's teams and continues to follow the next generation of his family competing for Farmington.
