Back in 2011 we were doing sprint drills which involved someone pulling you backward as you tried to sprint. Earlier in the day, Chad accidentally let go of the band when a member named Shawn was running. Chad felt so guilty that he allowed Zoey (Monte’s daughter) to deliver the punishment. She was too nervous, so papa Cole stepped in.
