Nobody threw them down harder than Owen Wignot. Obvious bait. We all know owen couldn't palm the ball. Owen wins the 'best dunk had he finished' award

A sports photog in Troy gave me an 8x10 of that dunk. It's hanging in the Siena gallery in my office :-) Take a photo of that and send it to me please

This goes back a ways...but Rod Owens, who dunked over Roosevelt Bouie in the old Manley Fieldhouse at Syracuse in the '79-'80 season. It wasn't spectacular, however it was the only dunk attempt I ever saw Owens actually make, and over the 6'11" Bouie made it special. I was a freshman at Siena that year, and a few guys from my wing decided to go out to the game, spur of the moment. It was the "Beat Siena" game, and turned out to be one of the best times in my four years at Siena.

Who made the best picks?- Without a doubt Jim Cantamessa. I remember him leveling some guy at half court to breakup a press. He is now an assist coach at Greensboro College. Who had the best floater? Its a toss-up between Mike Brown and Kyle Downey. Who had the best dunk? Edwin with the 360° against Fairfiled in the Championship, or against Niagara down the lane from the sprend offense. This is for fun. Give us your own!!! lots of great answers here in different categories.............................BUT, if you recall, one guy was super rugged in green & gold and seems to get lost in the shuffle, and that is Justin Miller, as he was devastating at setting picks, if you ran into him you were going nowhere but either backwards or on the floor, kid always played with a chip on his shoulder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brandon Fields had a Sportscenter highlight dunk that was the best I have ever seen by a Siena player. I don't remember which team it was against. "No cookies for you Mr Fields". -Bill Rafferty

IMHO, Brandon's was 1 of the 3 best along with Brent's at the dome. The 3rd everyone is forgetting was Mike Mc Ghee at Iona when an alley oop pass to him was high and wide, he reached with arched back and with one hand caught it and jammed it home in one motion. And Sky, Sise was 6'8", not 6'11".
