Seth Lundy was one of Penn State’s most consistent players last season. He started all 30 games he played in for the Nittany Lions and he ended the season as the team’s second-leading scorer and third-leading rebounder. Lundy also was key defensive player for the team as Shrewsberry worked on improving the team’s overall team defense.
Role in 2022-23
It should go without much question that Seth Lundy will play a key role in the team’s plans in 2022-23. With so much experience to rely on, Lundy should be a fixture in the team’s starting five and will be relied on to connect on some three-pointers, something he was among the bets on the team at doing last season.
Lundy will also be one of the team’s leading defenders if last season was any indication, and he will serve as a good mentor to some of the newer members of the program.
