Fitzpatrick to Bucknell

According to a tweet from his high school, rising sophomore Brian Fitzpatrick is leaving Penn to attend and play for Bucknell.

Fitzpatrick got into 17 games this season, averaging 9.2 minutes per game (that he played in. Over the 28 game season he actually got in just 5.6 mpg) and was 16-for-39 shooting on the year, averaging 2.4 ppg.

I haven't heard anything as to why he is transferring, so I won't do any speculating — it may not be basketball related at all.

I saw him a few times in practice where he looked pretty good — he seemed to have no trouble making his shots, however, in game situations he never looked quite as sharp.

We'll see next season how he does within the Bison program. As a side note, I now know that the plural of Bison is Bison.

edit: We'll have significantly more on this in Thursday's edition of the Summer Pennsylvanian, so pick it up on campus (to the three of you on campus) or check out thedp.com Thursday morning.
