FAYETTEVILLE – Razorback junior Lawson Blake was named to the 2024 SEC Community Service Team, the league announced.
Blake, a Fayetteville native, not only serves his team as a valued member of the scout team to prepare the Razorbacks for their opponents, but he serves his hometown community with the same dedication and enthusiasm by giving back to those who have supported him. He has volunteered 25 hours of community service and helped raise money for the Make-A-Wish Dinner Foundation, the Children’s Safety Center, Northwest Arkansas Children’s Hospital Telethon and the SAAC canned food drive. Blake has served as an elementary mentor and participated in RazorCalls, connecting with elementary students across the state via Zoom to answer students’ questions and read books to the students. He additionally helped Arkansas basketball raise over $800,000 toward cancer research at its annual Suites and Sneakers Gala. Lawson was selected to serve on Arkansas’ Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and the SEC Basketball Leadership Council. He additionally is a member of the Arkansas Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
This marks the 26th year for the SEC Community Service Team for men’s basketball as well as for women’s basketball. The SEC started the team to recognize the accomplishments of student-athletes beyond the field of competition
