Named the 2009-10 Big East Conference Defensive Player of the Year as he set the all-time Rutgers mark for blocked shots with 358 for his career...Ndiaye led the Big East and ranked third nationally in blocks per game as a senior with four and a half per outing, establishing the Scarlet Knight`s single-season blocks record with 145 in 32 appearances...Posted career highs with 9.4 points and 7.1 rebounds per game in 2009-10 when he started 25 games and averaged better than 28 minutes per contest...Nearly pulled off a triple-double against NJIT as a senior, logging 11 points, 13 boards and nine blocked
shots...Ndiaye finished his four-year career with averages of 5.8 ppg and 5.5 rpg, shooting 54 percent from the field, but just 59.2 percent at the free-throw line...Shows good athleticism and is a hard worker who is always looking to improve, even though he may appear inconsistent at the offensive end. |
