Lawson Blake to Participate in SEC Leadership Council

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Southeastern Conference Basketball Leadership Councils, which consist of one male and female basketball student-athlete from each of the SEC’s 14 universities, will convene for an annual meeting at the SEC offices in Birmingham Friday and Saturday.

The Men’s Basketball Leadership Council and the Women’s Basketball Leadership Council comprise two components of the SEC Student-Athlete Leadership Council. The third component is the Football Leadership Council, which meets each February.

The goal of the Council is for student-athletes to serve as a conduit of communication from their teams to the conference office on issues related to student-athlete experience, student-athlete wellness, and to provide feedback on proposed rules governing the SEC and NCAA. The agenda for the two-day meeting this weekend includes a conversation with SEC Chief Medical Advisor Dr. Katie O’Neal, a presentation from guest speaker Michael Haddix and engagement with conference office staff.

The student-athletes who comprise the SEC Basketball Leadership Council are listed below.
