P3 Peak Performance Project
I had the opportunity to work with P3 (Peak Performance Project), one of the leading sports science organizations in the world specializing in athlete performance and biomechanics. P3 uses advanced motion capture, force analysis, and data-driven insights to evaluate how athletes move, generate power, and perform at an elite level.
Through my P3 evaluation, I gained valuable information about my movement efficiency, power output, and athletic archetype — insights that help me continue to refine my training and maximize performance on the court.
Archetype Analysis
Josiah Lawson is a Specimen
Athletes are grouped into clusters using a machine learning technique that leverages 10 anthropometric, performance, and mechanical variables in order to generate the seven archetypes shown
Generally, athletes in this cluster possess an impressive mix of size for their position and power output. Force production in all planes is 'elite', and this quality is paired with above-average kinematic efficiency - suggesting that athletes in this cluster can take advantage of their endemic power
Height/reach characteristics closely resemble the typical NBA wing.
Paired with elite explosiveness vertically, "Plus" lateral explosiveness. "Plus" movement efficiency
Vertical Lateral Ability
Upper Tier Lateral movement. Average NBA Vertical Ability.
HBCU Elite 100 x The Athlete’s Foot: National Signing Day
I had the honor of being featured as one of the standout signees at the HBCU Elite 100 National Signing Day, sponsored by The Athlete’s Foot. This event celebrated the next generation of HBCU basketball athletes, highlighting our achievements both on and off the court.
During the event, I represented Morehouse College as a student-athlete majoring in Computer Science, joining an incredible network of players across top HBCU programs. The Athlete’s Foot and HBCU Elite 100 spotlighted my signing through national social media coverage, featuring photos by Cam Kirk and posts shared by major outlets.
