All Four Ivy League Tournament Teams Feature Players from One High School: Northfield Mount Hermon

No matter which team wins the inaugural Ivy League Tournament at the Palestra this weekend, Northfield (MA) Mount Hermon will be a winner.

The prestigious prep school from the New England Prep School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) has at least one alumnus on each of the four teams in the tournament: Harvard’s Zena Edosomwan (NMH ’13), Yale’s Anthony Dallier (’13), Princeton’s Peter Miller (’13) and the Penn trio of Jackson Donahue (’15), Collin McManus (’15) and AJ Brodeur (’16).

“I think it says a ton about the type of program [NMH coach] John [Carroll] has built and the values he looks for in a player and the type of young men he produces there,” Dallier, a 6-foot-6 senior point guard and the Yale captain, said by phone from his hotel room in Philadelphia. “It’s a program that cares both about academics and athletics and I think it shows with the fact of how many guys we have playing this weekend.”
