Iowa State seniors Marial Shayok and Nick Weiler-Babb will attend the 2019 Portsmouth Invitational April 17-20 in Portsmouth, Virginia. Team rosters, with eight teams making up the field, will be announced in the near future for the senior showcase.

Shayok was an All-Big 12 First-Team honoree as a senior. The Ottawa, Ontario native averaged career highs of 18.7 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists. One of the most consistent shooters nationally across the board, Shayok shot 49.6 percent from the floor, 38.6 percent behind the arc and 87.8 percent at the free-throw line. He is the only player nationally averaging 18 points and shooting at least 49.0-38.0-87.0.

Shayok, who was the most outstanding player at the Big 12 Tournament, scored in double figures in 32 of the 34 games he played in, posting 16 games with at least 20 points. Shayok concluded his collegiate career scoring 1,221 points, including 637 in his one season as a Cyclone.

Weiler-Babb wrapped up a successful Cyclone career by earning All-Big 12 Honorable Mention accolades. He was the only Big 12 player and one of just five Power-5 players to average at least 9.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals during the 2018-19 season.

One of the more sure handed players, Weiler-Babb finished his Cyclone career third on the ISU all-time charts with a 2.59 assist-to-turnover ratio. He dished out 344 assists to rank 13th all-time at Iowa State.

The P.I.T. invites 64 of the best college basketball seniors from across the nation to participate in the four-day, 12-game tournament in front of representatives from every NBA team.
