Dan-gerous Shooter

Dan Clemente proved once again this weekend what Ivy Leaguers have known for quite some time: he is as legitimate a scoring threat as there is in the League.

Clemente--who started the season off slow, having missed much of training camp with an ankle injury--showcased his ability to create shots for himself and his sweet-shooting touch this weekend.

"I think Dan really rose to the occasion," Sullivan said. "He was really trying to create shots and was very aggressive."

Against Princeton, he led the Crimson's furious comeback attempt with a great second half. Clemente scored 13 points down the stretch, hitting tough jumper after tough jumper, to help get Harvard to within striking distance. Clemente finished with a team-high 18 points on 7-on-12 shooting, including 4-of-6 from three-point land.

Clemente, although noticeably fatigued, led the team in scoring against Penn on Saturday as well. Much of the Quaker focus on defense was on stopping the 6'7 forward, but Clemente still managed 15 points on 7-of-14 shooting.

"Clemente is a great player who can really make plays for himself," Penn Coach Fran Dunphy said. "A big part of our game-plan on defense was to limit his opportunities."
