Abington Boys' Basketball Preview

ABINGTON BOYS’ BASKETBALL PREVIEW

Coach:  Charles Grasty, 4th year

Assistant coaches:  Gary Massey, Carlos Williams, Sam Szymanek, Mike Viscariello

Last year’s record:  22-6 overall, 13-1 league, finished 3rd in district, Second Final Four in a row.

Notable losses:  Anthony Durham, Putnam Science Academy; Jordan Simmons, West Chester University;  Jiere Morrisey

Key returners:  Matt Penecale, Jr., Guard., Anthony Lee, Sr. Guard, Mark Bond Sr. Center.

Others to watch:  Scott Brown, senior Forward; Amir Hinton, junior guard

Strengths/Question Marks:  Backcourt speed. Perimeter shooting; can use as many as 10-11 players
Our experience in the frontcourt is a question mark.  Our big guys are playing hard but do not have a lot of varsity game experience.

Outlook:  “Our team goals are to get better each game and to put ourselves into position to compete for a league title.”
