Paul's Bio

Paul has written for the Scranton Times-Tribune and The Aquinas, the University of Scranton's school publication. A lifelong resident of the Philadelphia suburbs, Paul lives, breathes, and eats Philadelphia sports, even withstanding the stigma of being a Philly sports fan (Since 1983 and still counting). Outside of that, Paul has a keen interest in statistics of every kind, and has a sabermetric approach that makes old-school reporters wince.

You can listen to Paul's weekly sports radio show on University of Scranton radio, 99.5 FM and online at wusrfm.com, Monday mornings from 8-10 a.m. eastern.
