On the season, Van Vleet is averaging better than 15 points and 7 assists per contest while running the show for a 16-8 Auburn team. Van Vleet, who scored 33 points against Rockford Jefferson last Saturday, has been happy with the way that Rockford Auburn has played this season. "It's been good so far. We are 16-8 with a young team and we are surprising a lot of people this season," said Van Vleet. Van Vleet is looking forward to the postseason. "The first goal is just trying to get the regional championship, but after that we'll just see how far we can go. Still, even winning regional's would be more than most people expect from us," said Van Vleet. Van Vleet, who already holds a scholarship offer from Northern Illinois University, has a host of schools, including the likes of DePaul, Illinois and Wisconsin tracking him on the basketball court, and is certain to continue to see his list of suitors grow.
