6\u20195 Ben Coupet, Jr. led Chicago\u2019s Beasley Academic Center (public grammar school) 8th Grade team to a 43-2 overall record. Ben and his Beasley teammates avenged their 2 mid-season losses to Morgan Park by defeating them to win the Chicago City Championship.
\nA long, small forward, Ben Coupet averaged 15 points per game for Chicago\u2019s deepest grammar school team.
\nFollowing in fellow Beasley alum Derrick Rose\u2019s footsteps, Ben will be attending Simeon Career Academy (Chicago, IL) like his 6\u201911 dad did.
\nBen also lead the Chicago All-Star team to victory over the Illinois team at Sonny Parker\u2019s annual 8th Grade All Star games held at Simeon, including in-game back to back slam dunks (highlights included).
\nThanks to Ben and his parents and everyone at Chicago Beasley, especially legendary Hall of Fame Coach Thomas Green.
