It was great being back in Sojka today even for a scrimmage. I have been to scrimmages before but I don’t think I have ever walked away as encouraged as I am with today’s @Bucknell_MBB scrimmage.
I was very impressed with the play of freshman @jacob_meachem, @PatrickCurtin21 & Amon Dorries. This could be the strongest freshman class in a while.
Sophomore transfer @a1eks_11 looks to be a nice addition.
Unfortunately @GrgurBrcic did not play.
Great to see players coming back from injury. @patrickobriennn & Quin Berger looked strong.
Now I know it’s only a scrimmage, but I get the feeling @primetimeruot4 is about to take his game to another level or two.
This is a deep and talented team that a staff of @JohnGriffinIII, @jflannery23, @coachmattgriff, @_coachbmac, @walley_mike2 will have ready when March rolls around.
Let’s go Bison!
Congrats to @Jacob_Meachem and @ejtakeover on the recognition. Thanks COBL for the great area basketball coverage. #HillPride https://t.co/k7cCKV2F4X

great championship in the Donofrio Classic at Conshohocken, Pa.

🔶Future Bison @Jacob_Meachem demonstrates his strong handle and ability to finish through contact, en route to a win that puts @HillBBasketball in Sunday's 3pm PAISAA championship at St Joe's Hagan Arena 🔶
Blues erase 80-71 deficit in final 3 mins and @ejtakeover finds @Jacob_Meachem for game winning 3 at buzzer and Hill wins 83-82 at Phelps. Back home for 6pm tilt tmw vs Life Center. #HillPride@HillAthletics
I concur! Got to watch @Jacob_Meachem and The Hill School thump Mercersburg and was impressed by his shooting, defense, court vision, poise and competitiveness (e.g., two offensive rebounds of his own *jumpers* and diving on the floor for loose balls). 🟧
At Hoop Group’s Lehigh Valley’s Hoop Showcase & watched 5’8 Jacob Meachem go for 25 for The Hill School against a talented Perkiomen School. There R not many 5’8 players better. Won’t look like much in the lay up line but Bison fans at Bucknell are gonna love this kid in a hurry.
