Player Interview: Dylan Penn (2018)
Dylan Penn – 6’2” | PG | Evansville Memorial High School
Player Interview: Prep Hoops Indiana Senior Showcase
Dylan Penn was the top performing guard from start to finish at the Senior Showcase this past weekend. Penn impacted the game in every facet and showed that he has been working on his game in the off-season. The 2018 guard continually got to his spots and defended at an elite level.
Penn goes to Evansville Memorial where he plays his high school ball and plays AAU with Pocket City Basketball. Dylan is effective on the point because he is a true point guard with length. He creates open shots for his teammates and is a superb passer with his length. Dylan put together a strong outing on Saturday in front of many college coaches and should see his recruitment take off in July.
