Andy Shaw, a member of the Cowboy Basketball team the past two seasons, has decided to focus on his coaching career. He will serve as a student assistant for the Cowboy staff while working on his bachelor's degree.

Shaw came to Oklahoma State from Santa Fe High School in Edmond, Okla., where he was a teammate of current Cowboy Obi Muonelo. Shaw was named Mr. Santa Fe High School following his senior year.
