The staff and membership of the Blue Devil Nation are deeply saddened by the news of the tragic loss of Lacey Dawkins, Andre's sister, in an automobile accident this weekend. News reports indicate that the accident occurred on I-77 in Pax, West Virginia on Saturday and that his mother was also in the car, but there has been no update as to her condition at this time.

We join the entire Duke community in sending our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to Andre and his family.
