Playing career

He won a high school state championship with Lexington High School in 1989 and 1991.[1]

In his NBA career, Feick played in 201 games and scored a total of 911 points. In the lockout-shortened 1999 season, Feick averaged 11 rebounds per game in 26 games for the New Jersey Nets, and on January 20, 2000 recorded 12 points and 25 rebounds in one game.[2] His last games were in the 2000–01 season, when his career was ended by an Achilles tendon injury. Oddly enough he remained officially on New Jersey's roster until April 2003[3] despite the Nets attempting to have his contract terminated as early as June 2002.[4]

Personal life

In 2008 Feick joined the Walmart FLW bass fishing tournaments tour.[5] In 2009 and 2010 he competed in the majors division, entering seven tournaments and earning $10,500. In late 2010 he left professional fishing to take the job of head basketball coach at Lexington High School in Lexington, Ohio, where he had attended as a student and won two state basketball titles.[1]

Feick is also the co-founder and CEO of Mid-Ohio Tubing LLC, which he co-founded with Wayne Riffe[6] on August 2, 2013.[7]

gollark: It turns out that they are, but luckily I can't punch very hard.
gollark: Well, I punched a wall yesterday to test if walls were very solid here.
