Get to know Daniel Shipp
Height: 6’6”
Weight: 275
Power 5 Scholarship Offers: None
247 Sports Composite Rating: N/A
Scouting Report
Shipp missed all of last season due to a knee injury, which is at least part of the reason Minnesota is his only Power 5 as of this writing. There is no denying that he has the right frame, length, and athleticism. Shipp is also light on his feet and can change direction quickly. But he’ll need to stay healthy this fall and prove that he is more than a set of physical tools.

BEMIDJI — The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development recently announced over $1.4 million in child care economic development grants, including a $200,000 award to the
Northwest Minnesota Foundation
in Bemidji.
Split between 11 programs and organizations around the state, more than 80% of the awarded funds support programs in Greater Minnesota, with the aim of creating more than 1,100 new child care slots.
“Affordable, reliable child care is essential for a thriving economy,” DEED Commissioner Matt Varilek said in a release. “These grants are supporting working families by ensuring Minnesota parents are able to work knowing their child is well cared for by some of the best caregivers in the nation. We’re also helping employers retain talent and working together to establish the foundation for long-term economic vitality.”
DEED’s Child Care Economic Development Grant program provides funding to organizations and communities to invest in new or expanding child care businesses, including facility improvements, worker training, attraction, retention and licensing, and other strategies to address the child care shortage.
Since the office’s inception in July 2023, DEED has awarded over $13 million in grants to 56 organizations to fund child care startups or business expansions, resulting in over 4,000 new child care slots.
