What have I cherry picked? I pointed out where he started and what his top accomplishment is so far. No more, no less.
But if you want to compare his performance to the WJC, you would have to compare his performance to that of a great performance by a 17 or 18 year old in the tournament. But this is also 2 years in a row that Jankowski has been the Frairs top forward in the NCAA tournament. He was named to the NCAA all-star team for his region last year too. Two years in a row is the start of a pattern.
