Astorga, a junior from Suffolk, Va., helped the Marlins to three
wins in the final week of the season, including two on Saturday and
Sunday, to secure the top seed in the ODAC Tournament.
Astorga posted his seventh 20+ points performance in a
regular-season ending 77-49 win over Washington & Lee
University. His last basket of the game pushed him over the
1,000 point plateau, making him the 23rd member of the 1,000 Point
Club and the second this season for VWC, the latter a program
first. For the week, Astorga shot 53% from the field,
including 42% from the three-point territory. He averaged
18.7 points and 7.0 rebounds. He notched a double-double with
16 points and 10 boards in a win over Lynchburg.
