Acrostic Corner – Penn season preview edition

Some acrostic poems about your Penn Quakers, because whānau is hard to spell.

So

Is he the

Light-em-up

Point guard

Everybody hoped?

Don’t let him get

Open for three

No relation to his coach

Ability to

Hound opponents

Until the

End of the game

 

Hits the road

Instead of being

Captain, Will he

Kick it at a new

School next year?

 

His

Offseason

Work made him

A

Really muscular

Dude

 

Ability to reach

Up and

Grab

Every

Rebound

 

Life-threatening issues

Eliminated his junior year

Well-earned return

Is

Soon

 

Practice

On court limited

Playing soccer also

Let’s

All

Wait to

See him in Nike

Kicks and back from

Injury

 

Man, he

Could be big

Moving forward

Although

Not sure he’ll be

Utilized early in

Season

 

Finds

Open man, is

Ready to

Earn playing time,

Man defense and

And work ethic are

Notable

 

Really

One of

The most

Hailed of

Steve Donahue’s

Class of 2019.

He can

Impress with

Length and

Dexterity

 

Sitting

In

Most games but

Makes

One or two shots and

Never

Sulks

 

Didn’t

Join rotation

Often last year

Now can

Earn time in new

System?

 

Shooting

Jumpshots, jumpshots, jumpshots

Offense up to something

No one in the Ancient

Eight will make his

Shots come easy.

 

Without Hicks,

One player

Of note who can

Drive pace in new

System

 

May not be

Able to

Contribute on court but

Don’t underestimate

Overall impact

Nor forget

All he’s brought by

Leaving Fairleigh

Dickinson

 

Did enough to

Warrant late

Year action in 2015.

Expect tough

Race for PT

 

Now only

Elected

Leader for

Season and

On track to

Not rest as

Health is not

Even an issue

Now with

Rest going into final

Year
