Quinn Lee Yaw, a transfer from Edinboro University, is joining the St. Bonaventure men’s basketball team this year as a junior. A power forward from Jamestown, New York, Lee Yaw is a psychology major.
When asked about his decision to transfer from a division II to a division I school, specifically Bonaventure, he described the process as a blessing.
“I contacted coaches all over the country, and Pappano was the only one to email me back,” said Lee Yaw. “It was more of a blessing and a sign rather than me choosing. I got lucky.”
Although Lee Yaw is on the roster, he is only allowed to participate in practice.
“I just want to come out with a big smile on my face, come out hard, play hard, and play a lot of defense,” said Lee Yaw. “ I want to make sure they know how to put the ball in the basket.”
For hobbies, basketball isn’t the only sport he plays.
“I’m really good at soccer, and I can cook really well.”
