FWIW, from the perspective of an opponent, Goodman adds quickness and speed that had been missing earlier in the season. Before the season, fans proposing a halfcourt trap were met with arguments that Penn's guards were not quick enough to extend that far out.
At Harvard, the Crimson fell behind 19-4 in a halfcourt game before deciding to push the pace, outscoring Penn 65-40. It was obvious that - without Woods and with Goodman playing only 16 minutes - Penn was vulnerable in transition. Foreman fouled out with 4 TO's.
At Penn, Goodman played 29 minutes and Penn had only 10 TO's (compared to 19 TO's in the first meeting). Harvard had no fast break pts and only 12 points off TO's (compared to 8 and 23 at Harvard).
Looking at the distribution of minutes, it appears that Caleb Wood's minutes were shared by Betley and Goodman.
