2x NE10 Player of the Year, Zach Laput, joins this week's episode of ​⁠ . After a dominant four years playing Division 2 for Bentley University, Zach transferred to play Division 1 for Davidson College in the Atlantic 10.

At Davidson Zach played various roles and was a consistent contributor for the Wildcats. The graduate student averaged the 4th most points (8.5) while fluctuating in and out of the starting lineup.

Before playing mid major basketball, Zach dominated at the Division 2 level. In 3 years, Laput scored just under 1700 points and was named a D2 All-American in his final two seasons playing for Bentley.

The Connecticut native attended HS at Notre Dame where he was an all-state selection. Not many Division 1 schools were recruiting Zach out of high school; seeing where he finished his career may have these same coaches questioning that decision.

Hear about his perspective regarding the transfer portal, his thought process to leave Bentley, and what his future in basketball looks like.
