Former forward Joe Chapman vividly remembers Golden Eagles Alumni’s 81-56 loss a year ago to Ohio State’s alumni team.
“We ran into Jared Sullinger last year and he was just a load for us,” Chapman recalled. “We weren’t prepared to switch defenses like Ohio State did.”
Now as the team’s head coach, Chapman is making sure Golden Eagles Alumni aren’t unprepared again in the 2018 field.
“You have to prepare for it,” Chapman said. “Being a part of it for three years, I kind of understand what needs to be done. … Teams are going to be playing different ways and you have to prepare for that game-to-game.
