COACH KEATING ON AUTREY
"Lamb has the needed experience that we were looking for,
especially for our young backcourt. He too comes form a strong
background of discipline and willingness to improve. He had the
great opportunity to play for two years with Coach Sigona, which
has further developed his ability to play at a high level while
being coached. Lamb possesses the athleticism and skill-set to play
both guard positions while utilizing his length to be a
multiple-position defender.
WHY AUTREY CHOSE SANTA CLARA
"First of all, the academic side of Santa Clara was a major plus.
Highlights for me were definitely basketball, the schedule Santa
Clara plays and the chance to play in the WCC, the people on the
campus and the certainly the coaches and players. I really liked
the team. It's also a beautiful campus. I felt like I knew everyone
since my first step on campus, they were so welcoming and had so
much energy. I really can't believe it. With me being from Texas, I
am used to just seeing California on TV and now I will play there.
I am really looking forward to it. My parents are with me 100
percent and are happy for me. They are excited to come and have a
nice place to visit."
