MARSHALL Marshall emerged as a potent scorer in his sophomore campaign as he logged four 20-point games and 20 double-digit scoring outings while ranking second on the team scoring 10.8 ppg. That was a dramatic increase of 8.3 ppg over the previous season for the long-armed, 6-4 guard who made big improvements in his perimeter shooting to lead the team with 43 three-pointers. A slick passer, confident and crafty scorer and a good penetrator and finisher, Marshall earned more playing time by improving his defense and finished second on the team with 32 steals and 16 blocks last year. He will look to build on his breakout season and is among the key Nittany Lion returners for 2012-13.

“Jermaine has really grown and matured on and off the floor over the past year to become one of the leaders of this team. His growth as a player has mirrored that. He may be our best perimeter shooter. He has a deceptive pace to his play, but he can get past defenders and is a great finisher with long arms.” – Patrick Chambers
