"The greatest compliment you can get in sports is that you make everyone around you better. Micah has done that every step of the way on his basketball journey. We are all better for having been on a team with Micah. He’s the real deal - he has everything you’d look for in a coach, colleague, mentor and friend. WE ARE thrilled for Penn State and the Shrewsberrys."
