Cooper “the difference” for Witt
WESTERVILLE — Wittenberg men’s basketball coach Bill Brown has set an early rule for the 2009-2010 Tiger basketball squad.
“They’re all playing football before next year,” Brown said.
That’s because the Tigers have gotten a shot in the arm in December from freshman Michael Cooper and Josh McKee, both of whom play on the Tigers’ football squad.
“It’s remarkable how they’ve made the transition,” Brown said.
Cooper had 20 points and eight rebounds in a 87-66 victory over Otterbein on Monday, Dec. 22.
Brown said Cooper, a South High grad, made several hustle plays that gave the Tigers the momentum throughout the contest.
“If one person was the difference in the game, from an emotional and physical standpoint, he was clearly the difference,” Brown said.
