LOUDONVILLE — As a sixth-year college student, Andrew Platek understands that he’s an elder statesman on the Siena men’s basketball team. That doesn’t make it any less unnerving for Platek as he realized just how many of his younger teammates watched him play while he was a standout at Guilderlan

Well done! He seems spry for an Oldtimer! I really wish him well since he is a diehard Family member!

He could have transferred back to UNC.

He got the extra COVID year, but was injured early enough last year that he got an extra “redshirt” year.

Yes we do…..he was a mentor to Caleb and RJ….plus he was a great defender.

That's funny Grover! Laughter is good for the soul, appreciate what he gave during his tenure at UNC. Only wish him the best going forward.

Not sure I want to give up a scholly for an extra, young coach on the bench. Best of luck to Platek.

Platek one of the guys that made this years squad what it is today through his mentorship.
