LYNCHBURG, Va. – Former Liberty Flame Javyon Maughmer has signed his first professional contract with Zastal Zielona Góra in Poland.
"I am super thankful for the guys God allowed me to be around for one year at Liberty. All of my teammates and coaches helped me grow in my game and in my faith," Maughmer said. "I am super excited to get to Poland and start working with a new team and coaching staff and ready to get the season going."
Zastal Zielona Góra is based in Zielona Góra, Poland. The team competes in the Orlen Basket Liga (OBL), the top league in the country.
Maughmer, a 6-6 guard from Chillicothe, Ohio, played his final season of college basketball for the Flames during the 2024-25 season, helping Liberty win the CUSA regular season and tournament crowns. Maughmer appeared in all 35 games for the Flames, making 33 starts. He averaged 8.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 0.9 steals per game.
Maughmer was a key member of a Liberty defense which finished the year 11th nationally and first in scoring defense (63.4). Maughmer and Liberty led CUSA and ranked seventh in the country in fewest fouls per game (13.4) while finishing No. 27 in the nation and second in CUSA in field goal percentage defense (40.5).
Maughmer tallied his first double-double (19 points, 15 rebounds) as a Flame in a road win at Western Kentucky while adding a season-best six assists.
Prior to transferring to Liberty, Maughmer played for Division II Cedarville for four seasons, appearing in 116 games (96 starts). As a senior, he was named the G-MAC Men's Basketball Player of the Year as well as an NCAAA All-America first member (second time in his career). Maughmer and the Yellow Jackets claimed the NCCAA Men's Basketball Championship, concluding the year with a 23-12 record. During his final campaign, he averaged 20.0 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 33.1 minutes per game.
