Armando Orizaba helped usher in a new era in Chapman athletics as a standout forward during the Panthers' transition from Division II to Division III. He was one of the few Panthers to earn awards in both divisions as an All-Region selection in 1993 (Division II) and 1994 (Division III). One of the biggest scoring threats in Chapman history, he still held the career record for assists and ranked second for assists in a single season at the time of his induction. By the time his career was done in 1994, Orizaba ranked first in career assists, second for career points, first for assists in a season and third for points in a season. He still ranks in the top-5 at Chapman in each category.
