Background
Jeff Joynes hails from east Baltimore an area which is known for producing prolific scorers and he is no exception. Joynes can fill it up and fill it up quickly in a variety of ways. He can shoot the 3 from deep, take slower defenders of the dribble and at 205 lbs. He can post up smaller guard with his strength. An example on how quickly he can score prior to coming to Glenville State Jeff attend Harford CC where in one game he scored in 23 points in just 8 minutes of play. That almost impossible. Joynes led his team as a 5 seed to the schools (Harford) first ever appearence in the MD JUCO Conference Championships Final where they suffered a a heartbreaking loss on a buzzer beater to Hagerstown.
Jeff is a no non sense kind of guy. He will not tolerate foolishness from his teammates on or off the court. Because of his mindset Joynes will not settle if he feels an opponent cannot guard him he will attack every play and he will tell his teammates to abuse the weak defender on the court.
