Spotlight: 6’6 Anthony Tarke | Coppin State vs. Morgan State Series (1.16.21 / 1.17.21)

6'6 220lb Senior #AnthonyTarke does a little bit of everything on both ends of the floor for #CoppinState. This past weekend in a split series vs. Morgan State, he showcased this aforementioned versatility. #YearOfTheLefty Between the two games, he averaged 19 Points, 14 Rebounds, 5.5 Assists, 3.5 Steals, 3.5 TOs, and 1.5 Blocks, shooting 45% from the field, 33% from 3PT, and 68% from FT (worth noting, Tarke shot 9-11 from the Line in their BounceBack win after struggling in game one, going 4-8). Context: Coppin State ranks 3rd in the entire NCAA in Adjusted Tempo w/ a baffling 76.9 possessions per 40 minutes. Thus, Coppin State is a trigger happy squad who's constantly runnin' and gunnin'. Through this offense, Tarke is able to showcase his versatility w/ full-court passes, shots & touches from all levels. Within 20 seconds you may see Tarke backing down a defender in the post, to him pulling from 25 feet off a sidestep. Likewise, defensively, Coppin State pushes the tempo, constantly applying pressure w/ their roster's length + athleticism. Through 13 games, Tarke is averaging an impressive 3.3 SPG and 1.6 BPG. Tarke is likely a Frontrunner for the MEAC DPOY and will have the opportunity to play himself into MEAC POY conversations as conference play progresses.
