College of Charleston plays differently on offense, but Aztecs coach Brian Dutcher says they're 'like an East Coast version of us' in terms of ethos and intensity
In the opening moments of the Colonial Athletic Association championship game last week, College of Charleston guard Ryan Larson was chasing a loose ball and violently crashed into UNC Wilmington’s Shykeim Phillips. Larson crumbled to the floor, holding his elbow.
Dutcher has a roster full of shoulder chips. Guys like Darrion Trammell and Micah Parrish, who didn’t have Division I scholarship offers out of high school. Guys like Matt Bradley, who transferred from the Pac-12 and sacrificed personal statistics so he could win. Guys like Jaedon LeDee, who transferred twice in search of fellow gym rats.
College of Charleston guard Dalton Bolon plays during the first half of a Jan. 19 game against Monmouth.In high school, legend has it, he was hit by a car the night before a football game and suffered a cut in his leg that would require 30 stitches. Fearing he would miss the game if adults found out, he super-glued it closed and played.
Bolon arrived at Charleston for his COVID year, only to break a foot three games into the season. He petitioned the NCAA for a medical waiver that somehow was granted, giving him a seventh collegiate season.
