Antoms started at the center spot for Lee all season long and brings a strong body, rugged mentality, and solid low-post scorer and passer to Maine next season.
He joins Shaq Walters to become the second member of Lee's 2017 class to accept a full athletic scholarship from a Division I school.
Below are some of his highlights from the recent season.
