AARON WYATT OF THE UNIVERSITY OF DALLAS, a senior forward from Frisco, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Men’s Basketball Player-of-the-Week for games played through Sunday, November 23rd.

Wyatt led Dallas offensively again with another pair of double-digit scoring performances against Howard Payne and Sul Ross State in the Bob Mason Classic at Austin College.

Wyatt poured in 16 points on 6-of-10 shooting to open the weekend with a victory over the Yellow Jackets. He added seven boards in 32 minutes played as well as three blocked shots. 

The senior forward notched a double-double in Saturday's overtime victory and also poured in a season-high, 24 points. Wyatt's last basket occurred on a layup to push the Crusader's advantage to three points and helped keep his squad unbeaten early in the campaign.
