With the season-opening tournament a week away and a big exhibition game this week, Hood College men's basketball coach Chad Dickman is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast.
Dickman chats with host Greg Swatek about the Blazers hosting an exhibition game this week against Mount St. Mary's. It's incredibly rare for a Division III team to host a Division I team in men's basketball. And Mount St. Mary's hasn't played a basketball game in Frederick since 1936.
So how did the game come about? And how thrilled is Dickman to be hosting the game?
He also talks about the upcoming season at Hood. The Blazers were picked in the preseason coaches poll to finish second in the Middle Atlantic Conference Commonwealth behind Alvernia. What are the keys to success for them? Who are the players to watch? And how many 3-pointers does Dickman want them to attempt per game?
Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy joins Greg to look at the high school regional playoffs for fall sports in Frederick County and preview the final week of the high school football regular season.
