Edwards played with the Miami Tropics AAU squad before heading to junior college. JucoJunction saw the Hawks earlier this month in Dallas at the Mitchell-Mullen Dallas Blowout.
Edwards now joins teammate John Florveus who committed earlier this month to the University of Georgia for next season.
"Justin is [a] combo forward who at times feels more comfortable on the perimeter. Edwards has a good set of skills for the game," said JucoJunction Publisher Bret Swanson. Edwards averaged 15.6 points and 7.7 rebounds per game last season while shooting 40 percent (52-131) from 3-point range.
Edwards is originally from New Zealand but has called Lakeland, F.L. home for awhile.
