Ohio State Commit Kalen Etzler Feels “Part Of The Program,” Meechie Johnson Returns To The Court

Kalen Etzler showed up in full Buckeye garb to both Ohio State games he attended last season.

First, he wore an Ohio State baseball jersey to the 79-72 win against Maryland in late February, then returned a week later in a Buckeyes hockey jersey to see his future team top Michigan at the Schottenstein Center. Etzler, a three-star 2021 power forward commit, watched at least parts of both games from behind the scorer’s table with fellow commit Meechie Johnson, and he feels more at home with his decision than ever.

“It's weird, I feel like family when I go now, not just like a little outcast,” Etzler told Eleven Warriors.
