News and Notes: Friday Edition

Below, news and notes for Friday...

• As Ivy League rules will not permit Errick Peck to play next season as a graduate student, he must seek to find a new school for a 5th year.  Below is a marketing highlight video for Peck as he contemplates his graduate school options.

• Eitan Chemerinski is having quite a week.  The Ivy League named him Academic All Ivy League and noted, "Eitan Chemerinski, Sr., Men's Basketball, Applied Economics & Management (Potomac, Md.)  Two-time Capital One/CoSIDA Academic All-District; ended career as the school's all-time leader in field goal percentage (.617)."  Chemerisnki was also named to the USA Senior Maccabi Games team and will be coached by Seth Greenberg.  USBasket.com writes on the selection:

"Eitan Chemerinski, Power Forward (6'8"): Chemerinski emerged as one of the Ivy League's top offensive players down low, shooting 63 percent from the floor, ranking 2nd all-time in Cornell history. The Maryland native force completed his Senior season averaging 6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1 steals per contest, and has been eyed my multiple top division Israeli organizations. Chemerinski posted double-digits in a series of games against Binghamton, Buffalo, Boston University and Delaware, registering 12.8 points, netting a noteworthy 22-of-29 from the floor. Ex-Cornell center Jeff Foote, who underwent a brief stint with Israeli power Maccabi Tel Aviv, and now plays in Lithuania described the 218-pounder as an athletic big with good leaping ability, a nose for rebounding and a quick first step off the dribble. Foote also noted that his former teammate is an efficient shot blocker."
