DiMichele named team MVP at football banquet


In this great Daryl Rule photo, Adam DiMichele going back to pass on the final play of his football season against Miami of Ohio; in hindsight, looks like a shovel pass to Daryl Robinson would have worked quite nicely instead of the deeper drop but, as they say, hindsight is always 20/20.

To no one's surprise, Adam DiMichele was named team MVP at last night's Temple football banquet.
There is a terrific recap of the banquet available on the school's official website, Owlsports.com.
One of the curiosities coming out of the banquet was junior center Alex Derenthal being named offensive MVP, even though DiMichele also plays offense. Last year, though, Derenthal was named Team MVP so the move was seen as honoring what have been clearly the two offensive leaders so far for head coach Al Golden.
Another was that Golden spoke for only five minutes, presumably because there were so few seniors to talk about.
The banquet, sold out a month ago, featured a terrific video by Temple student Fran Duffy, not to be confused with head basketball coach Fran Dunphy.
Hopefully, the university will make that video available online soon.
