FLORENCE, Ala. – Jason Landman delivered the game winning bucket with just two seconds on the clock to give the Lee men's basketball team an early Christmas gift with an 81-79 road victory against North Alabama on Dec. 19 and was named the Lee University Male Athlete of the Week.

Landman finished with a career-high 22 points and grabbed seven rebounds. The freshman was 9 of 12 from the field and showcased his range by converting 4 of 5 3-pointers.

"We talked about playing with poise and confidence and I thought we did a tremendous job of that tonight especially coming off a difficult game just a few nights ago against Huntsville," said head coach Bubba Smith. "I thought Jason played great game and really did a nice job against their physical post players. He was certainly up for the challenge and delivered in a big way for us."

Landman and the Flames (8-3, 3-1) will get back on the hardwood with three big GSC contests after the New Year beginning with Valdosta State on Tuesday at 8 p.m.
