When Concordia Cobber head coach Grant Hemmingsen had an assistant coach spot to fill, his plans were already made.

鈥淚t was going to be my brother or my dad,鈥� said Hemmingsen, 鈥淚t was always a plan that whoever became a head coach first, we were always going to be together.鈥�

George Hemmingsen III(x1986), Grant鈥檚 father, would fill the position.

Goerge Hemmingsen III played basketball at UJ and later was an assistant coach for the Jimmies.
