Abstract: Given a monodromy datum for abelian covers of

m a t h b b P^{1}

and a prime

p

of good reduction, there is a natural lower bound for the Ekedahl-Oort type, and the Newton polygon, at

p

of the curves in the family. In this paper, we investigate whether such a lower bound is sharp. In particular, we prove sharpeness when the number of branching points is at most five and

p

sufficiently large. Our result is a generalization of [1, Theorem 6.1] by Bouw, which proves the analogous statement for the

p

-rank, and it relies on the notion of Hasse-Witt triple introduced in [2] by Moonen.
