A 6'8, 220-lb. power forward, Mayshak's imposing figure intimidates on the court.

Despite his bulk, Mayshak is a very quick forward. He will be expected to grab a lot of rebounds and should develop into a potent offensive threat with seasoning.

Mayshak, who is from Canada, has not played basketball for nearly as long as some of the other recruits, but has tremendous athletic ability and the potential to become a star for the Crimson in the long term.

"The coach has said that he wants me to play, but I admit that there's a lot to learn," Mayshak said. "The hardest thing for me has been the level of conditioning of all the players on the team."

In a similar situation to Mayshak, power forward Bryan Sigafoos has the potential to star up front for the Crimson but will need at least a year of experience before he'll be able to make a contribution.

Sigafoos, a 6'10 tower, will play on the junior varsity team this season along with 6'7 freshman forward Don VanValkenburgh.

Both VanValkenburgh and Sigafoos look to provide the Crimson with help up front down the road, but will do little for the Crimson offense this season.
