Now eligible, he is expected to have an immediate impact for the Wolfpack. He is familiar with Keatts' system, perhaps more than anyone on the roster, from their time together at UNCW. He will add length and athleticism to the wing that was lacking last season. Career Highlights: Was a first-team All-Colonial Athletic Association selection as a sophomore after leading UNCW in scoring at 17.4 points per game … Helped UNCW repeat as CAA champions and reach the NCAA Tournament while compiling a 29-6 record … Had three double-doubles that season … Scored a career-high 28 points in a win over Towson … Made the CAA All-Rookie team as a freshman when he finished third among rookies in the conference in scoring (10.1 points per contest) and rebounding (4.2 boards per game) … Had 16 points in the NCAA Tournament loss to Duke that year … Averaged 24.0 points and 7.0 rebounds per game as a senior at North Mecklenburg High en route to being named Mecklenburg County Player of the Year. Personal: His full name is Clarence Leland Bryce … Son of Clarence Bryce and Shannon Hilton.
