Coppin State Men’s Basketball Accidentally Forgot Its Jerseys Against Drexel

Coppin State men’s basketball grueling schedule has posed multiple problems throughout the season, as detailed in Wednesday's Sports Illustrated's Daily Cover, but aside from missing a few socks or missing arms sleeves, the squad had not forgotten anything substantial.

That is, until its Dec. 14 game against Drexel.

Before tipoff in Philadelphia, the Eagles realized they left their game jerseys at home in Baltimore. They had to don Drexel's navy practice jerseys in order to compete, pairing them with CSU's standard gold shorts that were not forgotten in transit.

Some players got to keep their same numbers while others simply had to find a jersey that fit.
