GRAZ, Austria - After playing college basketball at the Division I level for George Washington and Towson, Chase Paar had several family reasons for transferring to Division II Shepherd for his final season of eligibility.
Both his parents attended the school and a season with the Rams allowed Paar to be college teammates once again with his younger brother, Cole. Suiting up for Shepherd during the 2024-25 season also paved the way for a pro career – which Chase Paar began here in impressive fashion on Sunday, Sept. 28, as the regular-season started in the top league in Austria.
