Said Francis, Sr.

Jounieh, LEBANON

Known as the other half of "brown magic", Said Francis comes to MIT from Lebanon, though he spent most of his life growing up in Qatar.  He is a charmer with the ladies, especially with his foreign accent and his amazing pick up lines.  He is majoring in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (Course 6) and takes great pride in dominating his classes, just like he does to people on the tennis court.

Said was one of the best junior players in Lebanon, and has been contributing that tradition here at MIT.  He was won many NEWMAC matches and consistently works hard in practice.  He is also a great teammate, a strong supporter of the team as a whole.  You will always know when this lefty is on the court & just listen for the "Yallah Said, Yallah!" chants.
