LCCC's Waylen joins 1,000 point club

Jake Waylen joined an exclusive club at Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) when he reached the 1,000 career point mark on Jan. 7 in a loss to Sussex County Community College. Waylen had 37 points that night.

Waylen, a Northern Lehigh High School graduate, became just the eighth player in LCCC history to reach the 1,000-point milestone. One of those players was Waylen's father, Brian, who scored 1,171 points in his two years at LCCC from 1982-84.

"Jake is a very talented player who can pass almost as well as he can score. He will experience great success playing at the next level if he chooses to do so," said LCCC Director of Athletics Jocelyn Beck.

Waylen is coached by former NBA star Darryl Dawkins at LCCC.
