On Lawrence: A gritty competitor and charismatic leader ... a swingman that has been rated a top 25 prospect at the small forward position by recruiting services ... incredible versatility allows him to play at the shooting guard, small forward or power forward positions ... owns incredible strength and is an outstanding rebounder and finisher, particularly for his size ... a "true New York City basketball player" ... averaged 9.8 ppg on 58.3 percent field goal shooting during St. John's 4-0 trip to Canada over Labor Day Weekend, 2009.Norm Roberts On Lawrence: "Omari is a tremendous slasher. He is understanding the speed of the game. Omari is a terrific passer in the lane so I think he is going to give us more creativity, with the ability of getting in lanes and creating shots for others as well as himself."At South Kent: Led the Cardinals to a 26-7 record and an appearance in the NEPSAC title game in 2008-09 ... South Kent squad fell to St. John's teammate Malik Stith's Bridgton Wolverines in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) championship game, whom the Cardinals had defeated twice during the regular season ... spurred his South Kent team to a 16-game regular-season winning streak, during which South Kent played for approximately two months without a loss ... averaged 14.1 points per game, 6.6 assists and 5.4 rebounds with a 79.0 percent mark from the free throw line during his senior year ... South Kent is the same prep school attended by St. John's teammates Rob Thomas and Dele Coker ... coach at South Kent was Kelvin Jefferson ... was selected to play on the New York City Team in the Jordan Classic Regional game at Madison Square Garden on April 18, 2009 ... scored 25 points on 12-of-21 shooting to go along with five boards in that game ... saw a game-high 35 minutes of action, the most among any player on either squad ... led the City Team to victory over the Suburban team, 129-120, at the "World's Most Famous Arena."At St. Raymond's: Starred at St. Ray's in the Bronx before enrolling at South Kent for his senior year ... averaged 18.0 points per game as a junior in 2007-08 ... earned first team All-City distinction from the NY Daily News and first team all-league honors from the New York Catholic High School Athletic Association (CHSAA) following his junior season.Personal: Omari R.
