Sample Questions
Basketball
As a senior in HS, I started coaching the kids at the JCC. One of these kids, Todd Mitchell, went on to play 24 games in the NBA for the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs in the 1988-89 season. (Technically, I never played with him, but I did teach him how to shoot a layup.) He was an All-American in college along with his teammate Troy Lewis (together sometimes known as TnT), and their team, coached by Gene Keady, was ranked number one in the nation before falling in the sweet 16 of the 1988 NCAA tournament to Kansas State. Which Big Ten school did Todd Mitchell attend?
