ot too many people read Ernest Hemingway anymore. Oh maybe there’s some English teacher out there who still assigns “Old Man and The Sea.� But that’s about it. Hemingway’s obsession with personal courage seems quaintly out of date. He is often portrayed as a braggart who drank too much and who adored the killing of wild animals, and a bit of a Tom Cardella sexist as well. I recently returned to reading Hemingway, almost a bit reluctantly. I always had an interest in the Spanish Civil War in which Franco came to power. Many believe the loss of Spain to fascism served as a preview of World War II. And quite coincidentally I recently viewed HBO’s film “Hemingway and Gelhorn,� some of which depicted the author’s role as a journalist coverASS CARDELLA ^OUS ! ,, 1][[c\Wbg [S[PS`a VOdS ^OWR bVSW` `Sa^SQba b] ;O`WS 0cQY Pg ^ZOQW\U WbS[a ]\ VS` ab]`ST`]\b

his year marks the 47th anniversary of the breakup of The Beatles, arguably the most revered and beloved band ever. Their absence has certainly made fonder the hearts of those fortunate to have heard material upon its release and has enabled millions more to appreciate the Liverpool lads’ genius as new followers. Mike Oxman adores the group’s catalogue, tabbing it “so much fun� and “such great music,� and encourages similarly rabid support as the bassist for The Newspaper Taxis, a tribute quartertet set to play sets of their heroes’ tunes tomorrow and Saturday. “There are definitely diverse tastes out there, and I respect that, but I’d say that everyone can find ample songs that will resonate as true examples of brilliance,� Oxman, 33, said of his affinity for the legends, with his fandom having intensified when he attended Temple University. “You can hear the dedication to craft throughout, and there’s just such energy and verve behind their output.� The Lower Moyamensing resident and his peers will perform at A Taste of Key West in Morton and Pogues in Prospect Park, the latter during the location’s 4 p.m. Beatles Happy Hour. The appearances reflect the outfit’s heavy presence in Delaware County, but no matter the destination, Oxman finds himself thrilled to channel his inner Paul McCartney and to promote the innovative identity inherent within the compositions. “You really can’t go wrong when thinking of what to listen to or play,� Oxman, whose group also performed in November through the East Passyunk Community Recreation Center’s Beatles Night celebration, said. “They were such a testament to the greatness that can come from wanting to better your chosen art form and society at large.� The admirer, whose band’s name comes from a lyric in the lauded foursome’s 1967 gem “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,� particularly esteems McCartney’s knack for structuring songs and “the beauty of John’s brain,� an homage to founder John Lennon’s creativity in tracks such as “Happiness Is A Warm Gun� and “Good Morning, Good Morning.� Through hisPhoto three-and-a-half-year by Maria Young presence in The Newspaper Taxis, Oxman has come to master more

A^SOYW\U OP]cb T`SSR][ ]T a^SSQV To the Editor: I am writing this to bring to attention a growing concern that has become more apparent and glaring in the last few months. This is a problem that has become more pervasive into our daily lives, and it’s about time that those willing to speak up about it, do so. I am speaking of the disguising double standard that the term ‘freedom of speech’ has taken on recently; an issue that you may soon find yourself a victim of.

The most recent, and perhaps one of the most stark examples of this that I can give is the recent Drexel University scandal, where professor of politics and global studies George Ciccariello-Maher tweeted over the holiday “All I want for Christmas is white genocide.� Drexel’s response, you may ask? To defend, unabashedly ‘academic freedom’ in stating that “the wide range of reactions to his tweets suggests that his intentions were not adequately conveyed.� This came af-

Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion

ter a petition was created in support of Ciccariello-Maher to “Let Drexel know - in the midst of the deafening, organized troll-storm - that racist trolls deserve no platform in dictating academic discourse, let alone the off-duty tweets of academics.� The petition ironically referred not to the professor himself, but to those rightly concerned citizens and individuals who took issue with the professor’s tweet. This letter may have led some to believe that I take issue with freedom of speech as a whole. This could not be further from the truth. However, I find it utterly reprehensible that individuals such as this professor would be lauded for his strength, courage and opinion by liberal outlets, while equally outspoken individuals on the other side (Milo Yiannopoulos, Carl Paladino, Jordan B. Peterson and our President-Elect to name a few) are met with nothing but claims of racism, homophobia and misogyny. If you want to protect speech, protect all speech equally, not just the speech you agree with. Jessica Lynn Argondizza South Philadelphia

“I think I’ve done well with being nice to people and remembering that we’re all just trying to make our way through life. I don’t really worry about anything, but I know there are plenty of people who do.� Timothy Albano, 1100 block of Ritner Street

marred the event in years past. These encouraging developments were the result of collaboration between the Philadelphia Mummers Association and the City of Philadelphia, which included sensitivity training, stronger policies against bias, and outreach to diverse communities. “We commend the Philadelphia Mummers Association for a more inclusive and respectful 2017 Mummers Parade,� Nancy Baron-Baer, ADL Regional Director, said. “The parade is a storied Philadelphia institution, which unfortunately has been tarnished in the past by a lack of diversity and by offensive portrayals based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or other traits. The 2017 Mummers Parade was an important step in the right direction, and helped kick off the year on a positive note.� The Anti-Defamation League

KLOH WKH KROLGD\ VHDVRQ LV WUD GLWLRQDOO\ D WLPH ZKHQ SHRSOH IRFXV RQ JLYLQJ EDFN Raylene Arko and her team abide by the sentiment all year round. Arko is the owner and operator of Keep it Clean with Raylene, a residential and commercial cleaning service. The business is located on Richmond Street in Port Richmond, where Raylene lived and grew up. When she started the business in 1994, she served a handful of homes, Now, Arko and her business go to more than 150 homes throughout the city. It’s more than just a cleaning service, it’s a business that cares. Arko and the cleaners at Keep it Clean tend to the houses of women suffering from cancer. This is done through an organization called Cleaning for a Reason. The nonprofit pairs maid service companies with those who are in need of their services. It’s based in Texas, but with more than 1,200 maid services participating and 23,000 women served, Cleaning for a Reason makes an impact on many women’s lives nationwide. Arko has been participating in the program since its creation in 2006. The services offered by Arko through the Cleaning for a Reason are completely free of charge. Arko receives no compensation from the patients nor the organization, but does pay her workers for their time and efforts. Over the past 10 years, the employees at Keep it Clean have helped women throughout the city offering the complimentary cleanings. “We wanted a way to give back,� Arko said, “and we thought this would be the best way.� Helping women with basic cleaning services, something that they may not have the time nor strength for, is a struggle familiar to Arko. Her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She won the battle against it and has been a survivor for the past 11 years. This is one of the driving factor that makes Arko want to help.

a minimum, according to Hearn. It may seem like a simple thing, but a clean house can go a long way for those struggling with cancer. “Not having to worry about [cleaning] is a big help,â€? Hearn said. “When you’re in cancer treatment, you’re sick often. It’s just feels nice to have anything taken care of. Teresa Miller, one of the workers at Keep it Clean, has been with Arko for many years. She has cleaned for many cancer patients who were in the program. Age, race and economics set aside, cancer was a trying and terrible burden for them. Just being able to help them suffer less or lessen the burden on their shoulders is something Miller finds fulfilling. @OgZS\S /`Y] ZSTb O\R 3[WZg 6SO`\ “It makes us feel good to give some^]aS T]` O _cWQY ^V]b] OTbS` O QZSO\ thing back,â€? she said. “We women have W\U aSaaW]\ ]T 3[WZg¸a A]cbV >VWZO to stick together, and we are happy to help.â€?

happen more often.� Jessica and thousands of other revelers ventured to South Broad Street to cheer for the costumed merrymakers, with hospitable weather leading them to be especially vocal supporters. Having attended MummersFest at the Pennsylvania Convention Center on New Year’s Eve, Jessica could not wait to witness the actual extravaganza, a trait she shares with parade fixture Doug Lattimer. “I’ve come here every year since 1982 when I moved to South Philly,� the Southof-South resident said. “Like many people, I’m upset with the alteration of the parade route, but when you see how hard everyone works to usher in the new, you can’t help but look beyond that and just be thankful that we can all gather to wish one another well.�

Lattimer did not have to trek far from his home on the 1700 block of Webster Street to partake in the pageantry, which included a wedding proposal from Andres Morales to Anne Welsh at Broad and Christian streets. While many people play favorites with regards to the event’s performers, he stated he loves “every single individual with enough gumption to rehearse tirelessly and perform for thousands of strangers.� A tradition since 1901, the Mummers Parade has meant many things to countless observers and participants, with Sunday’s rendition making an immediate fan out of Jocelyn Evans. “I’m here from London for a wedding,� she said of her best friend Maggie’s nuptials planned for today. “I try to keep my-

Evans could not hide her bias, stating that the string bands amazed her, and expressed excitement over heading to the Convention Center for the Fancy Brigade Finale. “I keep hearing about ‘Two Street,’ too,â€? Evans said of the popular Pennsport-based post-parade celebration. “I might make a stop there, too, because it’s all about having a great time today, right?â€?

ing that war in Spain. Subsequently I came upon an excellent account of the war in a book called “Spain in Our Hearts,” which includes an account of Hemingway’s role as a spokesperson for the American volunteers who fought bravely, but ultimately failed to win the war. So it seemed to me the time was right to go back and read Hemingway’s “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” which also dealt with the valiant effort to save Spain from fascism, a fight that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt turned his back on and later regretted. All of this is to make you, dear reader, understand why this column came about. I found that Hemingway’s focus on personal bravery struck a chord in me. I found a truth I think is buried in all men, one that bewilders most women. Buried deep in our male psyches is the need to exhibit personal courage. It begins early in our lives when maybe we do handstands to impress some young female. Most of us, are like myself, untested. And if we were candid we would admit that it bothers us deeply. The question of whether we are brave comes to us when we see a film or read a book or hear of a circumstance where someone else has acted with courage. Would we be able to do the same? Would we be able to storm the beaches of Normandy, knowing that the chances were good that we would not survive? Would we act bravely to protect our loved ones when to do so would risk our own lives? Would we be the ones to hide Anne Frank or give her up to the Nazis? These are questions that can haunt those of us who never had to answer that challenge. For some of us, the question involves our relationship with our fathers. The relationship between father and son, is at best, complicated. For those of us who had a father who had the courage to act bravely, that relationship is even more complex. Could we ever be the man that our father was? I have written frequently in this column about my father. As a cop on the beat, and then as a narcotics detective, he often faced situations where his courage was called to

account. He was awarded 35 commendations for bravery. For me, that became 35 questions as to whether I would have been brave enough to do as he did. Courage can be multi-sided. As brave as my father was, he was afraid to visit a dentist or a doctor. It was a fear that ultimately killed him. His cancer was detected too late. My father was also afraid of death, which seems paradoxical in a courageous man. After all, what did he do in earning those 35 commendations but risk death and win? Yet he feared going into a funeral parlor. When he was forced to attend a viewing of a family or friend that he couldn’t avoid, he would leave as quickly as possible and wait outside for my mother. He even feared sleeping in a certain position and being covered with a sheet because he associated it with death. Because of this, I admit I have a problem understanding the many different shades of courage because I am always brought back to my father. I understand that not all courage is physical. Yet there is something in me, and I think every male, that feels that the lack of physical courage somehow disqualifies us for fitting the definition of what a man should be. It is not as if being a trophy hunter of wild animals is something to which I would aspire. I believe Hemingway’s interest in hunting was more a manifestation of the need to face the wild animal bravely. I do not believe he would have respected some of the rich guys who pay to hunt defenseless animals like they were on a golf outing. I remember interviewing a former member of the Philadelphia Eagles who made money collecting wild animals so he could rent the killing rights to the affluent on some weekend lark. I detested that guy and was glad when he was cut. Hemingway was criticized for his love of the bullfights, but there, too, he believed that the bull became as glorified as the bullfighter by the ritual. He was not indifferent to the bull. I can’t pretend to understand a ritual tht ends with an animal’s death. Perhaps in the ultimate irony, Hemingway committed suicide, as did his father. An act of bravery or cowardice? A>@

A Lower Moyamensing resident is thriving as the bassist for a Beatles tribute band. N 0g 8]aS^V ;gS`a R e v i e w S ta f f W r i t e r

his year marks the 47th anniversary of the breakup of The Beatles, arguably the most revered and beloved band ever. Their absence has certainly made fonder the hearts of those fortunate to have heard material upon its release and has enabled millions more to appreciate the Liverpool lads’ genius as new followers. Mike Oxman adores the group’s catalogue, tabbing it “so much fun� and “such great music,� and encourages similarly rabid support as the bassist for The Newspaper Taxis, a tribute quartertet set to play sets of their heroes’ tunes tomorrow and Saturday. “There are definitely diverse tastes out there, and I respect that, but I’d say that everyone can find ample songs that will resonate as true examples of brilliance,� Oxman, 33, said of his affinity for the legends, with his fandom having intensified when he attended Temple University. “You can hear the dedication to craft throughout, and there’s just such energy and verve behind their output.� The Lower Moyamensing resident and his peers will perform at A Taste of Key West in Morton and Pogues in Prospect Park, the latter during the location’s 4 p.m. Beatles Happy Hour. The appearances reflect the outfit’s heavy presence in Delaware County, but no matter the destination, Oxman finds himself thrilled to channel his inner Paul McCartney and to promote the innovative identity inherent within the compositions. “You really can’t go wrong when thinking of what to listen to or play,� Oxman, whose group also performed in November through the East Passyunk Community Recreation Center’s Beatles Night celebration, said. “They were such a testament to the greatness that can come from wanting to better your chosen art form and society at large.� The admirer, whose band’s name comes from a lyric in the lauded foursome’s 1967 gem “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds,� particularly esteems McCartney’s knack for structuring songs and “the beauty of John’s brain,� an homage to founder John Lennon’s creativity in tracks such as “Happiness Is A Warm Gun� and “Good Morning, Good Morning.� Through hisPhoto three-and-a-half-year by Maria Young presence in The Newspaper Taxis, Oxman has come to master more

B?<;IJOB;I than 90 songs and has loved that studies of their creations have enhanced his status as “a music theory nerd.� “Their vocal harmonies are always the rabbit hole that I can go down in,� he said of the emotional value of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame enshrinees’ enduring canon. “They’ve been gone since 1970, but what they gave us has eternal freshness. The notes speak to me, no matter how corny that might sound, and that comes through each time we stand before an audience to honor them.� OXMAN OWES HIS overall passion for music to his upbringing in Massachusetts, with family members encouraging appreciation for it among one another. Listening to works and fathoming their depth became ambitious pursuits, and, by early adolescence, the youth had begun to envision stardom. “I definitely thought of being able to take the world by storm,� Oxman, whose initial exposure to the joys of delighting ears came through playing the clarinet, said. “As I evolved, as is the case with most kids, I discovered that might have been a bit bold of me, maybe even naive, but through my

time with The Newspaper Taxis and every other music opportunity I’ve had, I’ve been able to put out there just how much I treasure my chance to pick up an instrument and brighten some spirits.� Two years of lessons through a Berklee College of Music alumnus strengthened his predisposition, which include soul, funk and alternative bents, but Oxman proved he contains far more than one dimension through his academic endeavors. His time at Temple provided the foundation to comprehend a global phenomenon, namely, appreciation for The Beatles. “I hadn’t given them much attention before college, I must admit,� Oxman, whose day job calls on him to serve as an assistant store manager, said, noting that Metallica was his “musical baby bottle.� “However, when I latched on to them, I absolutely started to love everything they aspired to be and the lessons about the human condition that they offered in a non-preachy, let’shave-fun way.� The British superstars’ “Rubber Soul,� “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,� and “Abbey Road� albums, from ’65, ’67 and ’69, respectively, ushered in an im-

mense period of curiosity that he figures will last to his dying day and that he will certainly share with 2-month-old son William, whom he and wife Sarah, to whom he sang “Here, There, and Everywhere� from ’66’s “Revolver� at their wedding, welcomed a week before the local recreation center gig. Having decided on becoming a bassist after hearing he would never want for work, he discovered such beautiful reflections of his instrument’s possibilities. “Their evolution as students of music and their concern for making artistic statements, no matter what they were going through as a unit or as individuals, really impress me,� Oxman said, divulging that The Beatles’ later work is where his heart is. “It makes you wonder how many groups even consider doing that today, and even if most of them do, you still can’t put anybody above The Beatles when you ponder who has truly been a pioneer.� He has harmoniously fraternized with bandmates Donovan Rice, Bob Tomarelli and Billy Rose at numerous venues, including World Cafe Live, where they performed last September. Having wanted to play with

them since he first saw them, with renditions of “I’m Only Sleeping� and “Eleanor Rigby� off “Revolver� being especially dynamic, he loves joining the two in donning the suit-and-tie look of the British Invasion era and performing, unlike other fellow admirers, minus wigs, costume changes, and backing tracks. In so doing and in strengthening a flame that figures to outlast us all, Oxman et al have generated praise from established backers of The Beatles and have helped younger attendees to engender comparable joy. “There’s definitely more to learn with regards to going through their catalogue,� he said. “What’s pretty set, though, is that their influence is not going anywhere. When we go out there, especially with a new year upon us, which always makes people excited, we want to make the occasion very up tempo and hit them hard with our love for this music.� A>@ Visit thenewspapertaxis.com.

es, there is one day a year in which Mom Mom and Pop Pop get top billing — National Grandparents Day. But waiting until Sept. 10 to recognize them seems like a silly idea. Quite frankly today, tomorrow, or just about any day, for that matter, is an excellent occasion to make them your No. 1 priority. Christina M. Pullo knows the value of commending kin through culinary creations, and provides a simple way to thank them through this recipe for Mom Mom and Pop Pop’s Cookies. Along with the standard list of ingredients and directions, the Lower Moyamensing resident offered a humorous secondary items list and procedural explanation, stating preparers will need 1 nice day, 1 phone call, and 1 loving grandmother and grandfather. She also advises giving elders one-hour notice to come over for “their favorite dessert.� Like the finished products, which Pullo contends are “soooo good,� your gesture will prove equally unforgettable.

new year means a clean slate. But in this case, a new year means a clean palate and a great opportunity to have a few new brewhouses showcase why they should be your next savory pour. 0OdO`WO Q][Sa b] >VWZZg Imported German beer is often a dicey proposition because so many of the nation’s traditional styles—especially pils and Helles lager—are quick to deteriorate before they hit American shelves. However, Liquid Projects, a new Brooklynbased company, is giving it a try—and to be honest, the first batch it brought to Philly is mighty impressive. The company has put together a collection of styles from five separate German breweries under one brand name, Reinheits Boten, which translates roughly as “purity delivery.� The samples I tried last week at Brauhaus Schmitz, the excellent German bar on South Street, were all quite fresh and included some unusual styles. Among them: H]ZZS` 6]T HeWQYSZ, an unfiltered lager whose smooth body and malty sweetness make it the perfect complement to those big Bavarian soft pretzels on the Schmitz menu. 4`WSRS\TSZaS` H]WUZPWS`, an old and rarely seen type of unfiltered lager whose roasted malt gives the beer an amber color. I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve tasted zoigl, which takes its name from the German word for the sign of a star (one which had a very similar look to the Star of David, actually) that medieval farmers and brewers would hang on doors when they had beer for sale. @WSRS\Pc`US` =`UO\WQ 3[[S` 0SS`, made with a type of spelt that historians and archeologists believe is the first grain cultivated for beer and bread. It has a nutty, rustic character that is unique among German beer. I recommend all of these beers, especially for those who are looking for something other than hopped-out IPAs. These styles emphasize malt, whose character is particularly overlooked in American craft beer circles. But I wonder how long they’ll survive. As I mentioned previously, artisan German beers—especially unpasteurized varieties like these— don’t always travel well. Liquid Projects owner Lars Dahlhaus told

De h[i[hlWj_edi h[gk_h[Z me the beers are transported across the Atlantic in temperature-controlled containers, and that they’re pre-sold, which in theory means they move through distribution channels faster. The larger challenge, he said, was bringing competing breweries under the single Reinheits Boten brand together. If his business plan works, look for other new collaborations throughout the year. <Se RSabW\ObW]\a A couple months ago, I mentioned more than a dozen new breweries were headed to the city. Unsurprisingly, the opening of many of them has been delayed for the usual issues: licensing, inspections, balky equipment, etc. But several are now open, including: 0`SeS`g /@A, 1927 W. Passyunk Ave, South Philly. It opened the week before Christmas with limited hours, so check out Brewery ARS’ Facebook page or website before heading down Broad Street. It’s pouring two saisons and a porter (bring your growlers) and serves up some pretty good BBQ. EWaaOVWQY]\ 0`SeS`g, 3705 W. Schoolhouse Lane, East Falls. It held a couple holiday open houses and doesn’t yet have regular hours, so consult its Facebook page for details. This is a production brewery; don’t expect typical brewpub ambiance (or food), just yet. 4ZgW\U 4WaV 1`OTbV]caS, 1363 N. 31st St., Brewerytown. This spot opened with little fanfare just before the holidays. Located nearby the old Red Bell plant (nee F.A. Poth Brewery), it’s not actually a brewery. Instead, all of its beers are made over in Jersey by Garden State craft brewery. Among ales made exclusively for the taphouse: LoveFish, an abbey dubbel infused with cherries; and Duffified Ale, an English-style amber ale named after Brian Duffy of the cable TV show “Bar Rescue,� who also runs the kitchen. <Se PSS`a It’s impossible to keep up with the hundreds of new beers hit the shelves every week. But here’s three that recently caught my attention: 1]\aV]V]QYS\ 0`SeW\U 5V]ab 0SO`. Say it quickly: Ghost Bear...GhostBear... Gostisbehere. This new golden ale, smartly packaged in a black-and-orange can, has had Flyers fans lining up for cases since its debut in December. Oh, and no, it has not been endorsed by the Flyers’ young defenseman sensation, Shayne Gostisbehere. AV[OZbh >Oab`O[W >WZa. Yes, a pastrami-flavored pilsner. It’s a collaboration with Barcade, the fun Fishtown beer-andarcade bar, available on draft only. A>@

Village Taverna’s Pastichio

B

hanks to his Greek bloodline and pleasant personality, Kostantin Dalamagas has never doubted food’s role in helping one to curtail cares. Holding that eating should be about “Enjoying the moment, laughing, living, and having fun,� he has begun to link locals with his affinity for securing satiety through ownership duties at Village Taverna. “I absolutely love this community,� he said of his presence in Queen Village. “It’s a very homey area, so I believe we’re in a perfect position to offer residents food that’s simple, healthy, and authentic.� The Society Hill resident has maternal grandmother Theadora Kakarides to thank, as her recipes guide the operations at the 54-seat location. As an homage to heavenly homemade meals, Village Taverna finds him stressing the importance of dining with loved ones and considering dishes as durable diversions given the complexity of contemporary life. “Everything should be about relaxation in the grand scheme,� he said. “Sure, there will be the occasional bit of unrest, but the table should be a sacred location.� The businessman has enjoyed considerable success in his career yet has never lost sight of his obsession with seeing that fortune as a product of truly connecting with patrons. For those who have come to admire the item’s taste or those who might have experiencing dietary diversity as a 2017 resolution, he decided to share the recipe for his establishment’s pastichio. “It will definitely fill you up,� Dalamagas said of his lasagna creation. “You could feed a whole family with it, and it’s something that nobody ever forgets�

DIRECTIONS: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Layer half of the boiled pasta in a baking pan. Saute the beef seasoned with the clove and cinnamon. Add the tomatoes, garlic, sauteed onions, tomato paste, sugar, wine, olive oil, and bay leaf to the beef mixture. Simmer for an hour over medium-low heat, remove the leaf and the clove, and layer the sauce over the pasta in the pan. Add the remaining pasta on top of that. For the bechamel sauce, place the butter and flour in a saucepan. Add the milk while whisking to prevent clumping. Add the nutmeg. Take off the burner after the sauce has thickened, let cool, and add the yolks, salt, pepper, and cheese. Pour the sauce over the pasta layer. Bake until golden brown, and top with grated cheese.

Come next year, along with the muchanticipated opportunities to root for current Saints Quade Green and Dhamir CosbyRoundtree when they suit up for the University of Kentucky and Villanova University, respectively, local backers will also be able to cheer for Troy Harper, who is sitting out this season after having transferred from Campbell University. The junior guard will draw area praise as a Drexel University Dragon. We s t Pa s s y u n k p r o d u c t Je re m i a h “Lump� Worthem had a stellar career as a member of the Mathematics, Civics, and Sciences Charter School of Philadelphia, becoming the Mighty Elephants all-time leading marksman. The power forward has played one game so far for the Mansfield University of Pennsylvania Mountaineers. Jabri McCall helped Martin Luther King High School to win the Public League championship his junior season. The Point Breeze-bred sniper is playing for the Texassituated Ranger College and is averaging 9.6 points per game. Jameal Tucker made history in 2013 by becoming the first Academy at Palumbo ros-

ter member to earn a basketball scholarship, with Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania as the benefactor. The junior forward is now at California University of Pennsylvania and is tallying 5.5 points and snaring 4.5 rebounds for the Vulcans. THE NEUMANN-GORETTI FAITHFUL can also take pride in knowing that eight female graduates are also enjoying life as student-athletes. Like its male counterpart, the women’s team at Towson University has two former Saints on its roster. Sophomore Sianni Martin is second on the team with a 16.3 points-pergame average and leads the Tigers with 24 three-point field goals while fellow guard and classmate AJ Timbers is looking to add minutes as the season progresses, as she is averaging .3 points in very limited action. Guard Alicia Kebbe, who had committed to Syracuse University, has twice won the Big East Freshman of the Week honor for her efforts at St. John’s University. In 13 games, 12 of them starts, last year’s Catholic League MVP is averaging 7.9 points and 4.3 rebounds. Standout forward Olamide Aborowa, who

The junior guard is leading the University of Miami in scoring at 15.8 points per tilt. The Hurricanes sit just outside the Top 25 and took on Syracuse last night in Atlantic Coast Conference action. Lamarr “Fresh� Kimble also enjoyed success for Neumann-Goretti, scoring 1,166 points for coach Carl Arrigale. The sophomore guard is having a happy time on Hawk Hill as the second-leading scorer (14.3 points per game) for Saint Joseph’s University coach Phil Martelli. The Towson University Tigers are looking to roar this season in Colonial Athletic Conference play with two Neumann-Goretti products. Senior forward John Davis has made a pair of starts for the club and ranks third on the club in scoring (10.9 points per game), while freshman guard Zane Martin is averaging 2.9 points in just over 11 minutes per contest. Sophomore forward Tony Toplyn Jr. is offering fans of the parochial powerhouse even more bragging rights, as he is providing solid contributions for the Chestnut Hill College, including leading the Griffins in blocks (1.2). Point Breeze native and William Penn Charter School alumnus Demetrius Isaac is serving as a co-captain for the Division II squad. The junior is leading the bunch in scoring (12.3) and assists (4.2). In keeping with the impressive NeumannGoretti theme, the Caldwell University Cougars were happy to welcome Vaughn Covington to their New Jersey campus. The freshman guard has appeared in seven games, making six starts, and ranks second on the Division II’s team’s scoring list at 13.9 points.

helped the Saints to a 30-0 mark in 2014-’15, the season in which they ranked No. 1 in the country, has appeared in six games for the University of Texas Longhorns. The 6-foot3 sophomore is tallying 1.8 points and 1.7 rebounds for the Big 12 members. Morgan Lenahan came to South Philly last season after having played for Haddon Township High School. The 5-foot-11 guard, who earned Honorable Mention All-Catholic honors in her one campaign as a Saint, has yet to appear in a game for the Wagner College Seahawks. Freshman standout Kamiah Smalls, another former member of the last two state championship Neumann-Goretti clubs, has been a welcome addition to James Madison University. The guard is second on the team in scoring and steals and third in rebounds and assists. Jada Russell rounds out the quartet, along with Kebbe, Lenahan, and Smalls, of Saints who signed Division I scholarships last season. The sleek guard has led Longwood University in scoring five times and is second on the Lancers in steals. Rounding out the Neumann-Goretti set is sophomore guard Cianni Cryor. She played last season for Georgia Tech University and is sitting out this year following her transfer to Rutgers University, which last year graduated Kahleah Copper, a Prep Charter graduate who plays for the Washington Mystics in the WNBA. Sophomore guard Romeira Tucker proved a prolific scorer when at Universal Audenried Charter High School.
