As a multi-sport athlete at Billerica High and Bentley University, and now as a provider of services to children on the autism spectrum, Scott Yavarow has instilled confidence in those around him.

"As an athlete, I learned that taking the extra step in practice made me and my teammates better,'' said Yavarow, the first Bentley player drafted by a Major League Lacrosse team and a two-time lacrosse All-American for the Falcons.

An inductee to Bentley's Athletic Hall of Fame, Yavarow captained the soccer and lacrosse teams. His career 333 ground balls are a lacrosse program record and his 116 assists and 207 points rank second and third respectively.
