PENNSBURY BOYS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW
Coach: Wes Emme, 4th year at Pennsbury
Assistant coaches: Kurt Bergmann, Jon Love, Tyler Sessa-Reeves, Mike Higgins, Nick Ruggieri
Last year’s record: 13-12 Overall (7-3 SOL Patriot) Defeated Great Valley in District 1 Playoffs, Fell to Lower Merion in Round 2 and Phoenixville District 1 Playback.
Notable losses: Grayson Gozum (Moravian University), Mike Roccograndi (Bucks County Community College), Mitch Primola
Key returners: So. Guard Patrick Jajua, So. Guard Brayden Clark, Sr. Forward Max Manga, So. Forward Sean Breslin
Others to watch: Jr. Guard Brady Kent, Jr. Guard Zach Staines, Sr. Guard Owen Hogancamp, Jr. Forward Nick Bunda, Jr. Forward Quinton Shaffer, Sr. Guard Brendan Ryan
Strengths: Talent and playmaking ability at the guard positions. Strong depth at forward.
Question marks: The importance of the ball. Will we value the basketball at a championship level? Shot selection. It is what offense has become - will we take great shots consistently? Leadership void. Roccograndi and Gozum were highly effective leadership pillars. How will we replace them?
Outlook: “The goal is to regain the SOL Patriot title after falling short last season and qualify for the PIAA State Tournament.”
