I would like to thank the wonderful Siena Fans that have cheered for and supported my son Lavon and his teammates as they competed over the last 4 years for your Siena Saints. Siena Fans are the best in the conference and one of the top in the nation. The choice to come here had alot to do with the numbers that come out to every game as well as the awesome Times Union Center. Lavon will graduate from Siena with his class. I am most proud of that as well as his ability to bounce back from his challenges along the way. Thank you for making these last 4 years a special time for Lavon and I. Thank you for having his back and treating him like family. We will always think back on this experience fondly. And we will always be Siena Saint fans. #GoSaints Classy. Just remember...once a Saint, always a Saint. You still belong here even after he graduates.

If Nico's back next year I'm not sure who is going to have his back with Lavon gone. He's brought excitement to the team again and I wish the two of you the best and much health and success in the future.

As much as I love watching the game of college basketball I get more enjoyment watching our players getting their diplomas . . . it's not easy being a college athlete and student at the same time . . . congrats to all

I've been a huge Lavon fan from the beginning, has been really satisfying watching him turn it on this year during conference play and play with that intensity and passion that can make him the best player on the court in any MAAC game. Time for him to turn it on one last time and win a MAAC championship. Triple double in the championship game has a nice ring to it.

Thanks PPC! It has been and is a pleasure having you and Lavon as part of the Siena family. Watching Lavon grow and develop into the young man and player we see today has been very special and I have every confidence that great things await him in his professional career and in life in general.

Lisa- it was a pleasure to watch your son grow as a basketball player and as a man the last four years. You obviously did a wonderful job raising him and should be very proud of his accomplishments on and off the court. This year he has become the complete player and leader that I always knew was in there but, for whatever reasons the first three years, couldn’t get to on a consistent basis. He has put it all together this year and has become a beast on both ends of the court. More importantly he looks like he is having fun playing basketball this year - a wonderful way to wrap up his Siena career. Wishing him well on his future endeavors as a life-long Saint.

I assume Lavon and the rest of the seniors will be playing for pay next year. I wish them well and will be following their professional careers.

We have watched Lavon grow up before our eyes, as a player and a person. From a meteor freshman, to a foul machine (fixed that) to a turnover machine (fixed that) to the consumate "glue-guy" team player who just does everything very well. Even better, watching him on one of the recent pressers on here, he is an articulate, humble, self aware young man. A job well done mama Lavon, he is a son any parent would be proud of. He is poised to be a success at whatever he sets his mind to.

I want to add my congrats to Lavon's exploits both on the court and in the classroom. IS, I wasn't aware the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor. Wink

Lavon was a favorite of mine from the beginning with the stylish left handed game. This senior class is the most likable I've seen here. Best wishes to them all this weekend and in the near and distant future.
