FORMER Saint Joseph's standout basketball player Dwayne Lee has been named graduate manager at Wagner.
Wagner head coach Bashir Mason, who played at Drexel from 2003-07, made the appointment. Mason was named head coach in March.
"Dwayne is a lifelong friend of mine, his dad coached us growing up and I am excited to have him here at Wagner," Mason said in a statement. "He was an outstanding player and has a high-level basketball IQ. He is a steal for us."
Lee, a Jersey City, N.J., native, played for the Hawks from 2002-06. After playing on Hawk Hill, Lee played professionally in Germany's top division and also played in the Cyprus pro league.
"I am very excited about the new opportunity here at Wagner to join a staff with a coach that has been a lifelong friend of mine," Lee said in a statement. "It is a great opportunity to jump on board with a program that is heading in the right direction. I plan to bring new energy and a winning attitude to an already elite staff."
