PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Senior Luwane Pipkins (Chicago, Ill.) has signed a scholarship offer to attend Providence College in 2019-20.

In three seasons at UMass, Pipkins averaged 15.7 points, 3.7 assists and 3.5 rebounds in 90 games. Pipkins scored 1,416 points during that time. He also shot 35 percent from three-point territory after making 226 of 645 attempts.
In 2017-18, Pipkins had a breakout season, averaging 21.2 points and shooting 42.6 percent from beyond the arc. In recognition of his efforts, he was named A-10 Co-Most Improved Player and Second Team All-Conference in 2018. Pipkins set the UMass record for most points scored in a game when he registered 44 points in a win over La Salle on January 10, 2018.
