Scouting Report: Saint Josephs

Led By Pat Calathes, the brother of top Florida recruit Nick Calathes. He is a Wiry Big man who can step outside and knock down the 3 Ball. Right now hes averaging 16.3 ppg, and 7.7 rpg. Support comes from Sophomore Darrin Govens a rangy 6-1 combo guard who is averaging about 15 ppg. This team took Syracuse down to the wire about 2 weeks ago, which means they can and will be a team to reckon with. St. Joes poses matchup problems at the guard position due to Gonzaga's lack of depth. However the zags have a huge size advantage down low, if they can stay away from a defensive battle, they can win big over this squad, however with the recent play of the zags, it seems as though they may succumb to playing at Saint Josephs level. Look for Mark Few to run multiple offenses to try to confuse Phil Martellis squad.
