INDIANA, Pa. — Redshirt junior forward Willem Brandwijk (Voorburg, The Netherlands/Holderness School (NH)) posted his first career double-double with a career-high 16 points and 10 rebounds to help the IUP men's basketball team defeat Seton Hill 92-70 Wednesday night at the Kovalchick Complex.
 
Brandwijk was near perfect, going 7-of-8 from the field and 2-of-3 from the foul line, adding four blocks in 24 minutes of work.

Lombardi went 8-of-13 from the field, 5-of-8 from 3-point range and went a perfect 2-of-2 from the foul line.
 
It was the fourth win in a row for the Crimson Hawks, as they improve their record to 15-5 overall and 11-2 in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC).
