COACH RAHE ON DAVIS: "Daviin comes into his senior season extremely focused. He’s taken it upon himself to become a team leader on and off the court and has made tremendous strides in his physical, mental and emotionally maturity. He’s a good teammate who is unselfish with the basketball. We’ve asked Daviin to become a better rebounder and defensive player. He needs to use all of his athletic ability at both ends of the court and if he does, he will have a tremendous senior season. He’s been a very positive influence on our newcomers this season."
