After a rough December against tougher opposition, Penn is ramping up at the right time: January. Last night at the cozy Philly Palestra, the Quakers overcame an old Big 5 nemesis and A-14 foe in LaSalle. Four Penn men scored in double figures to give coach Fran Dunphy his 10th win of the season and 300th win overall, but the hero of the day was Ol'Mop-Top. Zoller also outscored and outrebounded NBA prospect
Steven Smith 25-23 and 6-4, and shot better too (Smith went 10-for-20).
And yeah, about that picture. This is the most recent snapshot we could find of Zoller, taken last season -- he's since trimmed his hair a little bit to escape the Justin Guarini look. He may not bear much resemblance to Clay or Ruben either, but he might be leading Penn back to March Fantasia.
