Wanamaker, a junior guard from Philadelphia, PA, averaged a double-double over a 2-1 week with 12.0 points and 10.0 rebounds per game for the 10th-ranked Rams. After a loss to Oklahoma Christian University, he scored 14 points, grabbed nine boards, and dished out seven assists in a 119-60 win over Southwestern Adventist University (TX). Wanamaker followed up with 13 points, 10 boards, and six assists en route to a 70-68 victory over Sterling College (KS). He made 12-of-19 field goal attempts (63.2%) as Texas Wesleyan moved to 2-3 overall.

Wanamaker was a participant in our summer workouts and received numerous offers from his strong performance in them.

The Boys Club defeated the Belfied in an exciting DeBose & Pembleton High School Classic. The final score was 60-48 but the game was close most of the game. Carl Wallace led the way for the Boys Club with 15 points while tournament MVP Tyree Smith had 26 for Gratz. Smith was spectacular in each game. The 6′ 5″ athletic swingman displays alot of potential and can score from anywhere on the court.
