Former Butler Bulldogs center and Brad Stevens pupil, Andrew Smith, passed away on Tuesday after a courageous, two-year battle with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and, eventually, leukekmia. He was just 25 years old.
His wife, Samantha, posted the news on Twitter this morning saying, "Andrew peacefully passed away in his sleep and in my arms as I told him I loved him this morning. Love you always, Smith."
