Through Fairfield's first eleven games, he is averaging 19.6 points, 12.8 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game. Weaton runs the floor very well for his size and can finish in transition. Offensively, he shows good footwork down low, and nice touch around the rim. Defensively, he has good hands and uses his size block shots with good timing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='956880' first='Traijan' last='Sain'], 6'5" SF, Cedar Rapids Washington - </strong>After a solid junior year, Sain is averaging 13.9 points and 6.4 rebounds per game. At 6'5", Sain has great length, and some serious bounce. He is very good at using his dribble to create shots and has a smooth release on his jumper. This fall Sain received his first offer to play at Iowa Lakes, but expect some more offers to roll as he continues a solid senior season.
