A champion hacky sack player from Ann Arbor was ordered to stand trial on sexual assault charges stemming from an incident in 2003.
Greg Nelson, 42, waived his right to a preliminary hearing in district court last week and stood mute to four counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct.
Police said he sexually assaulted a girl he knows roughly seven years ago. Ann Arbor Police Detective Bill Stanford said the victim recently told a friend, who told other officials, and police were contacted.
Nelson is a 12-time World Doubles Champion in hacky sack and is a professional Frisbee player who worked as an independent contractor for Flying Aces in Sharon Township.
He remains free on a personal bond and has a pre-trial hearing scheduled for June 17.
