This week’s Sit Down with Sydney was held at Garden Catering (they make great chicken nuggets) on Black Rock Turnpike in Fairfield. Among the topics I covered with Fairfield coach Sydney Johnson: a heavy dose of Derek Needham’s injury and moving on without him, the MAAC Tournament, Desmond Wade and the backcourt’s roles without Needham.
