Pennsylvania: Medina (D2)

Power Ranking Trend

Power Ranking By Week
WEEK RECORD RANK COMMENTS
Week 4 2-2 2

Lost a game they should've won today. The offense was just stagnant. Still living and dying by their defense, much like the previous weeks, but they weren't able to do enough today. Still don't think it takes them down though. 

Week 3 2-1 3

Tough loss to the #1 seeded Al-Andalus today.The scoring slowed down in the second half after a great comeback in the first. Tahir Abouelleil fouled out 10 minutes in which didn't help at all. This team is still living and dying by their defense, if they can put together some continuity on offense, they WILL see more wins coming their way. However, next week they’ll be playing without 2 key players, including leading scorer (13.3 PPG) Saad Khurshid, and will need to find scoring elsewhere.

Week 2 2-0 2

Gotta give credit where it's due, Medina has pulled off back-to-back victories tying them for the first seed. Medina took on Mecca in week #2, where they proceeded to execute in every way, outscoring and rebounding Mecca, while also winning the turnover battle and performing at the end of the game. Medina has a lot of experience, and craftiness, they could find themselves sitting atop the standings and power rankings with a win over Al-Andalus next week.

Week 1 1-0 3

The closer of the 2 games this week, Medina juuuust slid past Islamabad by a margin of only 2 points. However it wasn't pretty. Big contribution from Saad Khurshid this week, who put up over 61% of the teams points (NY Melo style) this week. The team needs to find some continuity and scoring options, fast, in this short season.
