Coach's Comments
Lessett on Tyson: "Tyson comes from one of the best AAU programs on the East Coast, the Baltimore Select and the best high school team in Maryland at Wallbrook. He was ranked at one time or another as the best point guard in the state. I am incredibly excited to have him. His performance in the state championship game was probably the best performance I have ever seen by a player. I can't say enough about him, the Patriot, the North East, the Atlantic-10 all recruited him, we got him and I can't wait to get him on the floor."
