Not long after the murder of George Floyd, Lehigh men’s lacrosse coach Kevin Cassese was talking with a good friend and Lehigh lacrosse alum Mark Wilson, ’94.
“I posted something after the incident that prompted Coach Cassese’s interest; he gave me a call and we just talked,” said Wilson. “He asked if I would give my perspective, just as an African American citizen, and discuss how I was feeling about it and discuss any questions or perspectives from the players and coaches.
