Rebuilding the Herd: Coach Demond George Leads Hempstead’s New Era

In this episode of the Dubuque Area Sports Podcast, Everybody’s Favorite Coach, Coach Maneman, chats with first-year Hempstead Mustangs Head Basketball Coach, Demond George. Coach George steps into a rebuilding phase for a program that has faced challenges since the Duax family graduated, taking with them five top-tier players. With a 7-15 record last season and a 5th-place finish in the MVC, the Mustangs are looking to improve under Coach George’s leadership. Key to that effort will be the return of standout point guard Reed Strohmeyer, who averaged 16 points per game last year and earned All-Conference honors. While the Mustangs did graduate several core players, Coach George is ready to build a team with grit and determination. Join us as we discuss Coach George’s vision for the Mustangs, the promising return of Strohmeyer, and what fans can expect as the Mustangs aim to make their mark this season!
