Akron: Not a Zippy Recovery



Not a Zippy Recovery: Akron junior forward Jeremiah Wood tore his ACL last season against Ohio, the Zips’ primary challenger for this year’s MAC championship, and he may not be ready to play any time soon. Wood is a beast in the paint. He averaged 9.9 points and 7.3 rebounds per game as a freshman and was averaging 10.7 points and 8.1 rebounds per game last season before injuring his knee. Without Wood, Akron will have a more difficult time living up to expectations. But the Zips did take down Ohio twice last season, even without Wood after he injured the knee during the teams’ first meeting.
