York has earned the No. 5 seed for the upcoming CUNYAC/Con Edison Men's Basketball Championships, thanks in large part to the play of Esonwune, who averaged 20.3 points, 17.3 rebounds and 8.3 blocks per contest during a three-game week. He registered a triple-double with 21 points, 20 rebounds (seven offensive) and 10 blocked shots in a victory over CCNY (Feb. 12), while nearly missing the same feat with 21 points, 15 boards and nine blocks in a win at Staten Island (Feb. 7). Against Brooklyn (Feb. 9), the reigning All-American tallied 19 points, 17 caroms and six blocked shots.
