VANWAMBEKE MAKING AN IMMEDIATE IMPACT ... Through his first eight games doning the purple and gold, sophomore transfer Justin VanWambeke has made his mark. While early injuries allowed VanWambeke to jump into the starting lineup earlier than anticpated, the sophomore guard has flourished in his first year with the Duhawks. VanWambeke’s calm and cool demeanor on the court paired with his ability to make a difference on either end of the floor has frustrated opponents and paced the Duhawks in the opening third of the season. On the defensive end, VanWambeke plays smart and disciplined aginst opponents top guards. He leads to the team with 13 steals, averaging 1.6 per game. His defensive pressure has fueled the Duhawks in transition, allowing them to push the tempo on opponents. Often times this season, VanWambeke has cashed in his defensive efforts with points on the other end.

JUSTIN VANWAMBEKE GAME HIGHS POINTS - 21 REBOUNDS - 7 ASSISTS - 3 STEALS - 4

Playing in nearly 32 minutes a game, VanWambeke is second on the team in points per game (14.6) and tops the team in free throw percentage (84.4 percent). A sharp shooter, VanWambeke shoots 46 percent from the field and 35.7 percent from beyond the arc. Although he’s a consistent offensive option for the Duhawks, VanWambeke’s stellar court vision has allowed him to set up his new teammates. The Machesney Park, Illinois native leads the team in assists (16) and assists per game (2.0). Making an instant impact, VanWambeke will be a key player to watch for the remainder of the Duhawks 2014-15 season.
