Pennsylvania Quakers Playbook (video & PDF)

Description

Video playbook & diagrams of 2019-20 Pennsylvania Quakers.

Head coach Steve Donahue and his coaching staff have run very effective actions, having a winning record before season suspended due to co-vid19 situation.

I attended 4 of their training camp practices in 2019 at the historical Palestra and I was able to observe their 5-out & 4-out/1-in offense, which contains many interesting scoring actions.

This playbook is compiled after detailed study of 10 of their season games.

Bonus film: ball movement that shows their tendency to move the ball and find the best possible option.
