NCAA Tournament Triumphs  Bucknell has made four NCAA Tournament appearances (1987, 1989, 2005, 2006).  In 2005, the Bison became the first Patriot League team ever to win an NCAA Tournament game, upsetting third-seeded Kansas 64-63 in Oklahoma City.  One year later, Bucknell repeated the feat, knocking out Arkansas 59-55. Bucknell was a No. 9 seed in the tournament in 2006, the highest seeding ever for a Patriot League team.  In 2005, the Bison were eliminated in the second round by Wisconsin, 71-62, in a game Bucknell led with nine minutes to play. Top-seeded Memphis defeated Bucknell 72-56 in round two in 2006.

The Bison opened Patriot League play with home wins over Navy and arenas in Washington, Coliseum, and the Carrier Dome, as well as NBA American, stretching their winning streak against conference foes to 23. D.C., Dallas and Oklahoma City. The run ended on Jan. 12 at Holy Cross, but it would be nearly two months before Bucknell tasted defeat again. A hard-fought road win at Lafayette ignited a 14-game winning streak, the longest in-season streak in school history. A three-point home win over Holy Cross in the rematch at Sojka Pavilion highlighted the run. A year after posting an unprecedented 14-0 Patriot League record, the Bison went 13-1 last season and tied for the PL regular-season title with Holy Cross. The Crusaders were awarded the No. 1 seed and pivotal home-court advantage in the Patriot League Tournament based on the league’s final tiebreaker, the RPI. Bucknell opened postseason play at home with victories over Navy and Army by an average margin of 20 points. That set the stage for a third straight Bucknell-Holy Cross showdown for the Patriot League title. Bucknell won at the Hart Center in 2005 and at Sojka Pavilion in 2006, but this time it was the Crusaders who prevailed, 74-66. Seven busloads of orange-clad Bison fans invaded Worcester, Mass., and watched their team erase all of a 19-point second-half deficit, but Holy Cross had enough down the stretch. Despite 22 victories and the PL regular-season co-championship, Bucknell was not selected for an atlarge berth to either the NCAA Tournament or NIT. That brought an end to the brilliant careers of Abe Badmus, Donald Brown and Chris McNaughton, who graduated as the program’s all-time winningest senior class with 87 victories. McNaughton, who ranked sixth on Bucknell’s career scoring list (second among centers), earned both First Team All-Patriot League and Patriot League Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors for the third year in a row. Brown, despite missing seven games with a broken hand near the end of a terrific senior season, earned Second Team honors.

Bison in the Pros

Never in the history of Bison Basketball have more Bucknell alumni been playing professional basketball at the same time. As many as 12 recent Bucknell graduates have continued their hoops careers overseas. The most prominent of those is J.R. Holden '98, the point guard for European powerhouse CSKA Moscow. Holden also starts for the Russian National Team, with which he competed at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing after a stunning victory over Spain in the 2007 European Championship. Holden's buzzer-beater gave the Russians the Euro title. Here are some other former Bison now in the pro ranks:

 Bryan Bailey ’02 — Has carved out a nice European career and in 2010-11 is back in Germany with Artland Dragons Quakenbrueck. Last season he played in Poland and has also competed in The Netherlands and Bosnia.  PATRICK BEHAN ‘10 — Recent Bucknell graduate signed with the Gotha Rockets in the German ProB division following graduation.  Donald Brown ’07 — Played a season for U.M.F. Tindastoll in Iceland, where he averaged better than 20 points per game. He suffered an injury that kept him out of action last season.  ZACH EVANS ‘10 — After graduating in the spring attended a tryout camp in Florida and earned a spot with Hapoel Marnin Tivon of the Israeli Second Division.  John Griffin ’08 — Enjoyed a very successful debut season with the Proveo Merlins Crailsheim in Germany, averaging a league-best 20.3 points and 3.5 assists per game before going down with a knee injury late in the year. Griffin finished last season with a team in Slovakia and now works for the NBA’s Indiana Pacers.  Boakai Lalugba ’03 — Has been one of the better players in France in recent years and is now one of the key frontcourt players for Denain ASC Voltaire. He previously played in Sweden, Finland and briefly in the USBL.  Charles Lee ‘06 — Had a very good 2008-09 season with Goettingen in the top German division after playing one year each in Belgium and Israel. Lee averaged 13.1 points and 4.4 rebounds while leading his upstart team to a runner-up finish in the Bundesliga. Last year, he joined another top German club, the Artland Dragons. Lee played in two NBA Summer League sessions with the San Antonio Spurs and was in veterans training camp in ’06.  Chris McNaughton ’07 — In 2009-10 McNaughton had an outstanding season with Goettingen in the German Bundesliga, and this season he has signed with another top-division club, EWE Baskets Oldenburg. A German native, McNaughton had a big summer in 2010, as he made the German national team and saw time at the FIBA World Championships in Turkey. McNaughton previously spent two seasons playing in Spain.  Chris Rodgers — Played at Bucknell from 2002-04 before transferring to Wilmington College. He has played for a number of teams in Germany and is now with Wolfenbuttel. He previously played for three different EBA teams.  Davorin Skornik ‘04 — Played last season with with Trenkwalder Reggio Emilia in Italy and MFC.2 Branik Maribor in his native Slovenia. He has also made stops in Switzerland and Hungary.

Many other Bucknellians have enjoyed professional success as well, including all-time leading scorer Al Leslie ‘81, who was drafted by the NBA’s Indiana Pacers and Patrick King ‘92, who had a long and successful career in Germany and is now an agent in that country.

Sojka Pavilion: The Place to Be Bucknell’s recent hoops success has captured the imagination of the campus and surrounding communities, so much so that the Bison have attracted one of the best home-court advantages in the nation. Some Sojka facts:  Sojka Pavilion, Bucknell’s home since 2003, has attracted sellout crowds 18 times in the last five seasons, and the Bison have led the Patriot League in attendance each year.  Bucknell crowds are led by “The Sojka Psychos” student section, clad in all orange behind both baskets.  The spirited crowds have helped the Bison to a 70-28 record in Sojka Pavilion, including a 51-11 mark against Patriot League competition.  Bucknell had a 38-game home winning streak against Patriot League foes that spanned five seasons.  Major-conference foes Villanova and Wake Forest have visited Sojka Pavilion in recent years. The Villanova game attracted a standing-room-only crowd of 4,433, which remains the largest ever to see a basketball game on the Bucknell campus. Wake Forest was the first ACC team ever to play at Bucknell.  Eighteen nationally televised games have been aired from Sojka Pavilion, including the ESPN2 telecast of the 2006 Patriot League championship game between Bucknell and Holy Cross.  Bucknell will play 12 regular-season home games in 2010-11.  A total of 276,832 fans have watched men’s basketball games at Sojka so far.

First-Class Training Facilities Bucknell men’s basketball student-athletes have at their disposal practice and training facilities that are at the head of their class.  On non-game days, Sojka Pavilion transforms into a multi-purpose practice court. The retractable grandstands allow for as many as eight baskets to be put into use, while at the same time letting the team practice every day on its home game floor.  The men’s basketball team has its own private, newly refurbished locker room, featuring a large-screen television and state-of-the-art video technology for team meetings and film study.  The interior decoration, including installation of hard maple lockers and stools, was updated in 2007-08.  As part of the seven-year-old Langone Athletics & Recreation Center complex, the spacious Berger Family Weight Room includes varsity-only space for the Bison teams to train under the tutelage of full-time strength & conditioning coach Jerry Shreck and his staff.  Also under the Langone Athletics & Recreation Center roof is a state-of-the art Sports Medicine Center that features numerous treatment modalities including electric stimulation, ultrasound, hydrotherapy and cryotherapy. The hallmark of the complex is its two hydrotherapy tubs (one hot and one cold). Each can hold between 6-10 athletes.

The Premier Scholar-Athlete Experience  Bucknell has led the entire nation in student-athlete graduation rate on several occasions and annually ranks in the top 10. Recently, Bucknell ranked No. 2 nationally in 2008 and No. 8 in 2009.  Seventeen Bucknell varsity athletics programs boasted perfect 100 percent Graduation Success Rates (GSR), factoring student-athletes who entered school between the 19992000 and 2002-03 academic years. Men’s basketball’s 91 GSR was one of the highest in the nation.  All 27 Bucknell varsity programs easily meet the NCAA’s Academic Performance Rate (APR) standards. In fact, 18 Bison programs, including men’s basketball, earned NCAA Public Recognition Awards for ranking in the top 10 percent of all teams in their respective sport according to APR scores. That total led the Patriot League and ranked No. 5 nationally.  Doug Allen ‘88, a former Bison basketball player and now an Associate Dean of the School of Management, serves as the basketball team’s academic advisor. Prof. Allen is on call to help members of the team with academic issues and conflicts, and he serves as a liaison between the team and the faculty.  A student-athlete Academic Enhancement Lab is open six days a week throughout the school year. Fully equipped with computers and audio/video technology, the study center is conveniently located on the Sojka Pavilion concourse.

The Lee Idleman Academic All-America Wall, located in the Langone Athletics & Recreation Center, pays tribute to Bucknell’s 118 Academic All-Americans, the fifth-highest total among all Division I institutions.


What it Means to

be a bison

“... the pursuit of athletics in college need not interfere with a fellow’s studies, and if you give a boy a well developed body his brain will get the benefit of it.” — Christy Mathewson, in his book Won in the Ninth, written in 1910

The term “student-athlete” signifies something extraordinary on the campus of Bucknell University. Being a Bison means that you have the rare blend of physical skills along with the drive and passion needed to succeed at the highest level of collegiate athletics. Being a Bison also means that you are a scholar first and foremost. You believe that values associated with Division I athletics, such as time management, leadership, teamwork and grace under pressure, contribute to a well-rounded college experience. At Bucknell, our students, faculty and staff pride themselves as national leaders in upholding the scholar-athlete ideal that balances a challenging academic program with the demands of successful Division I athletics. Being a Bison means that you have pledged to be a student-athlete in the purest sense. In doing so, you will be rewarded for a lifetime.

Bucknell Bison Athletics Setting the Standard of Excellence

Bucknell takes great pride in its commitment to excellence on and off the playing fields.

According to federal data released by the NCAA each fall, Bucknell’s student-athlete graduation rate annually ranks in the top 10 among all Division I institutions. Bucknell has led the nation in graduation rates twice in the last 10 years, and it ranked No. 2 in the 2008 study. In the most recent survey in the fall of 2009, Bucknell ranked No. 8 in the nation.

Bucknell has claimed a league-high 118 Patriot League Scholar-Athletes of the Year since the league’s inception as an all-sports conference in 1990-91.

A total of 379 Bison appeared on the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll in 2009-10 after recording a GPA of 3.2 or better during their sport’s competition season. Among all BU student-athletes, 257 made the Dean’s List with GPAs of 3.5 or better in the spring of 2010.

In addition to the 118 ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans produced since 1970, Bucknell has also claimed 293 Academic All-District honorees over the same span, including a school-record 22 in 2008-09 and 17 more in 2009-10.

With a school-record-tying eight Patriot League championships in 2009-10, Bucknell has now earned 81 crowns in 20 years in the league. In addition, Bucknell has had 109 conference players of the year, 89 PL coaches of the year and a whopping 491 individual league champions from sports such as cross country, track & field, swimming & diving, tennis and golf.

Bucknell has captured the Patriot League Presidents’ Cup, signifying the league’s all-sports champion, 16 times in the 20-year history of the affiliation, including 12 of the last 13 years. Bucknell claimed the overall, men’s and women’s Cup titles in 2009-10. It was the 13th straight year and the 16th time overall that the Bison took home the women’s title. In 2009-10, Bucknell won Patriot League titles in women’s cross country, men’s soccer, women’s indoor track & field, women’s outdoor track & field, men’s outdoor track & field, women’s rowing, baseball and softball. Additionally, the women’s water polo team captured the CWPA Southern Division championship, and the wrestling team sent four student-athletes to the NCAA Championships and produced two All-Americans.

Bucknell ranks FIFTH in the nation (to Nebraska, Notre Dame, Penn State and Stanford) in total number of ESPN The Magazine All-America selections with 118.

A major element in ensuring Bucknell’s commitment to athletics excellence is the Kenneth G. Langone Athletics & Recreation Center, which opened fully in 2003. One of the finest collegiate athletics facilities of its kind, the center includes the 4,000-seat Sojka Pavilion, the Olympic class Kinney Natatorium, the Krebs Family Fitness Center and the Berger Family Weight Room. A Hall of Fame area, a display of Bucknell’s Medal of Honor recipients, a new Academic All-America wall, a sports medicine suite, modern offices for coaches and staff, and locker room and classroom space are also included in the facility’s layout.

Bucknell Bison Athletics

A National Model in Promoting the Scholar-Athlete Ideal Bucknell Athletics is first and foremost a student-centered organization, one that strives to be a national model when it comes to operating by a true scholar-athlete model. At Bucknell, student-athletes’ academic programs are their first priority, and providing a competitive Division I athletics program only advances the mission, values and residential learning goals of the university. To that end, the Department of Athletics and Recreation proactively seeks ways to assist studentathletes in their daily academic pursuits. Below are just some of the student-athlete support programs currently in place. FACULTY ATHLETICS REPRESENTATIVE: The faculty athletics representative (FAR) is a member of the faculty or administrative staff who is designated to represent Bucknell in its relationships with the NCAA and the Patriot League. Bucknell’s FAR is Mitch Chernin, Professor of Biology. The FAR can enhance the student-athlete experience by promoting a balance between academics, athletics and the social lives of student-athletes, which affords them opportunities to enjoy the full range of collegiate experiences available to students generally. SIDELINE COACH PROGRAM: This program is a truly unique initiative in Division I college athletics, and it involves the invitation of a member of the faculty, administration, staff or community by one of Bucknell’s 27 varsity teams. The participant has the opportunity to discuss the overall program with the respective coaching staff, including practice preparation and strategy for the upcoming contest. The sideline coach attends a practice session and an actual intercollegiate competition, where he/she is introduced to the team and gains rarely seen insight into the relationships that exist between player-coach and player-player. The purpose of the Sideline Coaches Program is to foster a better understanding by the faculty and administration of the roles played by coaches and athletes in the university’s competitive intercollegiate athletic arena. ACADEMIC ENHANCEMENT CENTER: In the Fall of 2005, the Department of Athletics opened a study/computer lab for student-athletes on the concourse level of Sojka Pavilion. The center is outfitted with computers, a laser printer, four television monitors and a projection unit with computer, VCR and DVD player. Additionally, the study lab can be used as a meeting place for group projects, tutorial area or just a secluded and quiet study space before or after practice. LAPTOP PROGRAM: The Department of Athletics owns a number of laptop computers that may be signed out by student-athletes for use on away trips. STUDENT-ATHLETE ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SAAC): Representatives from each varsity team comprise the SAAC, which is designed to enhance the total studentathlete experience by promoting opportunity, protecting student-athlete welfare, and fostering a positive student-athlete image. The Committee is an invaluable resource for promoting communication between athletics administration and student-athletes; promoting communication between athletics and campus-wide administration; providing feedback and insight, as well as soliciting responses into department issues and proposed NCAA legislation; building a sense of community within the athletics program involving all athletics teams; organizing community service projects and efforts; creating a vehicle for student-athlete representation on campus-wide committees; serving as a collective voice of campus student-athletes; and disseminating information to the student-athlete body. OTHER PROGRAMMING: The Department of Athletics, through the identification of outside speakers and periodic “Brown Bag Luncheons,” thrives to enhance the quality of the student-athlete experience as well as to educate student-athletes on a variety of issues that may affect them throughout their collegiate career. Some recent topics of interest have been alcohol, nutrition, body image, hazing, sexuality, diversity, career development, study skills, religious life and gambling.

Lewisburg, Pennsylvania

One of the Best Small Towns In America Bucknell’s hilltop campus slopes into Victorian Lewisburg, population roughly 6,000, a town in which historic preservationists have influence. Lewisburg enjoys ornamental vanities that are not part of modern architecture. Gingerbread porches, carved wooden doors and three-globed street lights that make this town memorable. Historical roots are important in Lewisburg. The town celebrates the holidays with the annual Victorian Holiday Parade and exhibits at the Packwood House Museum and the Slifer House Museum. Its many historical sites include an Underground Railroad station. A weekly market brings Amish farmers to town in horse-drawn wagons. Lewisburg is ranked 15th in the nation in the book, The 100 Best Small Towns in America, written by Norman Crampton. The town earned this ranking by scoring high in areas such as the number of physicians per 100,000, the percentage of college-educated residents, the lowest number of serious crimes, and its location near state parks as well as being host to an institution of higher learning. The borough of Lewisburg began its early life as “Derrstown” named for its settler, landowner, and miller Ludwig Derr. While the date remains obscure, the historians point out that in English, the German name for Ludwig is Lewis. The town’s growth from 1785 until well into the 19th century was slow due to the lack of transportation, until a ferry was built to carry wagons across the Susquehanna River and a canal was completed in 1833. Lewisburg, surveyed in 1769, was not officially founded by Ludwig Derr until 1785. The borough was incorporated on March 31, 1812. Located on the Susquehanna, it has benefited with every development in transportation: turnpike, canal, railroad and now, highways. Enhanced by the chartering of Bucknell University on February 5, 1846, and the seating of the county government on October 9, 1855, the community expanded its development past Fifth Street to what is now Route 15. Most of the builders of this community are protected through historic district regulation. Education has always played a primary part in Lewisburg’s social society. As early as 1790 the basics were taught in private homes. In 1805 the “Log Cabin Academy” was built. In 1835 three new schools were added, while the present system consists of two elementary schools, a middle school — which was recently named the top middle school in the state — and a high school. Sixty-five percent of Lewisburg’s high school graduates go on to college. For more on Lewisburg, please visit the Lewisburg Downtown Partnership Web site at www.lewisburgpa.com.

bucknell no. 1 in salary potential among u.s. liberal arts colleges Graduates of Bucknell University have the highest earning potential in the nation, a research survey revealed in July 2008. The 2008 Education and Salary Report, prepared and released by Seattle-based PayScale Inc., named Bucknell graduates No. 1 among graduates of top U.S. liberal arts colleges by salary potential. The top liberal arts college category showed that the starting median salary for Bucknell graduates was $54,100, while the mid-career median salary was $110,000. Bucknell was followed by Colgate University at $52,800 and $108,000 and Amherst at $54,500 and $107,000, respectively. The salary report, the first issued by the company, also ranked Bucknell 13th among all Northeastern colleges and universities for salary potential. Dartmouth College, Princeton University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Yale University, and Harvard University were Nos. 1-5, respectively. Except for Cooper Union (No. 9), Bucknell was the only predominantly undergraduate institution in the top 14 in this category. National Reputation A number of recent reports have served to underscore Bucknell’s national reputation: • In 2007, The Washington Monthly ranked Bucknell No. 7 among the best liberal arts colleges in the country when it comes to fostering research and promoting an ethic of service and social mobility. • Last year, the Peace Corps listed Bucknell at No. 6 on its top 25 list of small colleges and universities producing Peace Corps Volunteers. • Last February, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine rated Bucknell as the 11th best value in private liberal arts colleges.

jay wright leads ‘nova to ‘09 final four

holden becomes bucknell’s 4th olympian

Under the direction of 1983 Bucknell graduate Jay Wright, the Villanova men’s basketball team has returned to national prominence. Since arriving at Villanova in 2001, Wright helped the Wildcats reach a number of milestones, including a then-school-record 28 wins in 2005-06, a Big East regular-season title, a first-ever No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament and an Elite Eight trip in 2006. All of that was surpassed in March 2009, however, when Wright led his team into the Final Four at Ford Field in Detroit. Wright was a three-year letterman in basketball at Bucknell, where he received the Kribbs Award as team MVP in 1981-82 and the Musser Award for leadership in 1982-83. Wright was a freshman at Bucknell when former Bison coach Pat Flannery was a senior, and the two were publicly reunited in December 2005 when Wright brought his fourth-ranked Wildcats to Sojka Pavilion to play in front of the largest crowd in school history. Villanova prevailed, 79-60. Before arriving at Villanova in 2001, Wright was head coach at Hofstra for seven seasons, where he led the Pride to a pair of America East titles. In August 2005 he served as head coach of the gold medal-winning U.S. team at the World University Games in Turkey. Wright was named Former Bison coach Pat USA Basketball Co-Developmental Coach of the Flannery (L) with Jay Wright Year after leading the U.S. to an 8-0 record.

Another unlikely chapter in the amazing basketball story of J.R. Holden unfolded in the summer of 2008, when the Pittsburgh native and 1998 Bucknell graduate suited up for Team Russia at the Olympic Games in Beijing. Holden’s underdog career path has been well-documented. First, he transformed himself from a lightly recruited guard into a 1,300-point scorer and a twotime First Team All-Patriot League selection at the Division I level. Holden has had a successful and lucrative overseas career that has taken him to Latvia, Belgium, Greece and Russia. He is now one of the top stars in European basketball, where he led the powerful CSKA Moscow team to the 2006 Euroleague title, and as a naturalized Russian citizen, he nailed the game-winning jumper to give Russia the Eurobasket 2007 title and a berth in the Olympics. In Beijing he started all five games and averaged 38.6 minutes, 17.6 points and 4.8 assists per game. In his Olympic debut, he had 19 points in Russia’s victory over Iran, then he added five points against Croatia, 25 against Lithuania, 20 against Australia and 19 against Argentina. Among all Olympians in pool play, he was the No. 5 scorer, and he also ranked No. 1 in minutes played and tied for third in assists. Holden became Bucknell’s fourth Olympian. The first was Dave Morley, who swam for his native Bahamas in the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles. Cindy Ryder Matthes ‘88 competed for Team USA in rowing at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, while rower Brett Wilkinson ‘98 was also a J.R. Holden member of Team USA at the 2004 Games in Athens.

The 2010-11 Bison


2010-11 Season Outlook

consistency key in 2010-11 as bison look to build on last year’s strong finish The Bison men’s basketball team took a major step forward starting in late January of 2010. In head coach Dave Paulsen’s second year as head coach, Bucknell started well, but then mysteriously slumped in December and the early part of January. Perhaps sparked by a terrific second-half comeback in a one-point road win at Colgate, the Bison caught fire, finishing out the regular season with eight wins in 10 games to claim second place in the Patriot League standings. Bucknell finished 14-17 overall and 9-5 in the league, and despite the strong finish, a home loss to Holy Cross in the Patriot League Tournament quarterfinals has this group yearning for more. The good news is that virtually the entire rotation returns intact, along with the infusion of a promising recruiting class. Graduated forward Patrick Behan, who averaged 9.0 points per game a year ago, is the only one of the team’s top 10 scorers not returning this season. Stephen Tyree, the 2008 Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year who missed his entire junior year with a knee injury, is back for a fifth season and will again share the captaincy with senior point guard Darryl Shazier. Shazier was the team’s top scorer (10.1 ppg) and team MVP a year ago, and he enters the season with 92 game appearances under his belt. The other senior is wing G.W. Boon, whose “instant offense” capabilities have made him one of the league’s deadliest sixth men. Last year’s Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year, Bryan Cohen, headlines a junior class that also includes reserve forwards Enoch Andoh and Probese Leo, both of whom are looking to make an impact in 2010-11. Paulsen had a gem of a first-year class a year ago, with Mike Muscala, Bryson Johnson and Joe Willman becoming the first threesome from the same team to make the Patriot League All-Rookie Team in the same year. Muscala took it a step further, becoming one of four freshmen in league history to make the All-Patriot League Team when he earned second team honors. Colin Klebon, a forward who is on the cusp of a regular rotation spot, rounds out a tremendous sophomore class. Cameron Ayers, Ben Brackney and Ryan Hill are this year’s newcomers, giving Bucknell one of its deepest backcourts in years. In fact, “depth” is probably the No. 1 strength of this year’s Bucknell team. As preseason practice gets underway, Paulsen will be tracking a battle for the backup center spot behind Muscala, but the Bison are at least three deep at every other position on the floor. Nine of the 10 retuning players have recorded a double-digit scoring game in his career, and eight of them have started games at Bucknell. Last season, the Bison took the term “scoring balance” to a whole new level. The team’s top eight scorers averaged between 5.6 and 10.1 points per game. Four players averaged at least 9.0 points per game, nine different players had at least one 10-point game and a mere 40 points separated the team’s top five scorers. Ask Paulsen about that balance and he is all in favor, because it makes his team very

difficult to scout and defend, but now he is looking for more consistency from everyone in the lineup. “We have more depth than we’ve had since I’ve been here, we have more competitiveness in practice, we have more versatility, and we have more familiarity with each other and with me,” said Paulsen. “The group has progressively raised its work ethic quotient, and it’s been on a real good plane upward. This team works very hard, they are coachable and committed. “We have seven guys returning who played major rotation minutes last year, and I think every one of those seven guys have had moments of brilliance, countered by moments of ineffectiveness. Now they are older, and we expect more consistency. It’s wonderful to have those moments of brilliance, but the floor has to be raised. On a scale of 1 to 10, you don’t always have to play at a 10, you want to average around an 8, but you can’t ever at any moment be below a 5 or 6. There have been times in the past where we would get a 10 and then a 2, and we can’t have that.” Offensively, Bucknell upped its team scoring average from 64.3 points per game in 200809 to 67.0 last season, and that figure was even slightly higher (67.9) in league play. Part of the reason for the scoring increase was better protection of the basketball. For the first time since 1992-93, Bucknell finished a season with more assists (370) than turnovers (359). In fact, four of the five low-turnover games in school history came last season. The Bison had four miscues

Stephen Tyree

in games against Holy Cross and Saint Francis, three in a win at American, and an unbelievable one-turnover performance in an overtime victory over American at Sojka Pavilion. The Bison significantly improved their freethrow shooting, from 67.8 percent the prior year up to 73.0 percent last season, the No. 2 figure in the Patriot League. Johnson (.840)

2010-11 Season Outlook and Muscala (.806) both topped the 80-percent mark as freshmen. But even thought the scoring output increased, the team still has plenty of room for improvement when it comes to shooting the basketball. The Bison ranked next-to-last in the league in both field-goal percentage (.410) and 3-point percentage (.329). As the young post players get stronger finishing around the basket — and when they do, they will command more attention from the defense, freeing up the perimeter — and if the outside shooters can each improve by a few percentage points, that scoring average will only go higher. Defensively, the Bison were much improved in Patriot League play last season. They allowed 68.0 points per game on the season, but only 65.4 in league play, the second-best figure in the conference. Bucknell featured the runaway Patriot League blocked shot champion in Muscala – his 65 blocks were 17 more than the next-closest player – and the team rebounded fairly well. But its opponents’ .389 3-point field goal percentage was the highest in the conference, and Paulsen wants his squad to establish a better defensive identity this season. “We were the top-rated field goal defensive team in league games last year, but we didn’t do a great job defending the three,” said Paulsen. “We were just OK rebounding, but not great. We really need to establish a defensive DNA that says, unequivocally, we want to be the best defensive team in the league in every category, dominate the glass and stay out of foul trouble. You can look at the stats and say that our offense has probably been more inconsistent, but I think that is going to evolve as our young players continue to mature. But we can’t lose focus on our defense. We have to become a defensive-oriented, tough-minded group. When we are clicking on offense, our defense should carry us to a double-digit win, and if we are struggling on offense, we need the defense to win us a low-scoring game.” In Tyree, who is taking graduate classes toward a master’s degree, along with seniors Shazier and Boon, Paulsen has good leadby-example veterans, but he thinks they can become even more vocal. “Our leadership must be not good, but great,” Paulsen remarked. “I think we have good leadership right now, but any team that wins its conference championship has great leadership. The seniors have never played on a winning team at Bucknell, and I do remind them of that. We are looking for consistency from our team, and those guys have to set the tone for that. Their leadership and ability to execute late in games is going to be big. They may not lead us in scoring, but their ability to lead and to embody all of the things we have to get to as a team is really crucial. If they do, then we have a chance to be really good.” Following is a more detailed look at the Bucknell lineup for 2010-11.

Backcourt

Senior Darryl Shazier is one of the most experienced returning point guards in the country, with 92 games played and 70 starts to his credit so far. Shazier won the Patriot League assists title as a sophomore, becoming the first Bucknell player ever to do so, and he finished third in that category last year. He has ranked

Bryson Johnson

in the top two in the league in minutes played in each of the last two seasons, and at times has been a big contributor in the scoring column. Shazier had three 20-point games last season, including a career-high 27 in a home win over Holy Cross, and with back-to-back 19-point games to close the season, he ended up as the scoring leader on a very balanced team at 10.1 points per game. Shazier, who ranks seventh on Bucknell’s career assists chart, has hit a number of big shots late in games in his career, including a 35-foot buzzer beater to send the Cornell game into overtime a year ago. He is also a very solid defender for a 6-foot guard. But while he has had some impressive scoring nights in the past, Paulsen thinks Shazier can become more consistent offensively. “Darryl had a good year as a junior,” said Paulsen. “He scored 10 points per game, was our leading scorer and team MVP, and all of that is good, but he got to 10 points per game with a 27-point game here, followed by a game where he wasn’t as aggressive offensively. So we need him to be more consistent. We need him, when he misses his first couple of shots, to still have an aggressive mindset. I can remember some performances where he was just phenomenal and he exuded confidence, and then some games where he didn’t match that. We want him to exude confidence whether he’s 8-for-8 or 0-for-8. That’s a challenge and a goal for him, and it will be a huge factor in how well we do.” At the “2” spot, sophomore Bryson Johnson had an outstanding rookie season, but he is also looking for increased consistency as a shooter. In 2009-10, Johnson set a Bucknell freshman record with 67 3-pointers, and he averaged 9.5 points per game. Johnson scored 18 points against Mercer in his first collegiate game and had 17 double-digit scoring efforts, but his 32.8 3-point field goal percentage has room for improvement. “Bryson is as good a shooter as I’ve ever been around when he gets it going,” said

Paulsen. “He had a solid freshman year. Again, consistency is a key. We need for him to be a 40-percent 3-point shooter. I think he can be. That’s what he can do, and that’s what we need him to do. I think we’ll have more versatility inside where people will have to think about double-teaming inside, and while we would like for Bryson to become a more complete player, at the end of the day if he’s hitting 40 percent of his 3-pointers he’s going to be on the floor a lot. “As he’s adjusted to the college game, his maturity and shot selection have gotten better. If he misses his first two shots, he needs to carry himself with positive emotion. I tell our players, ‘if somebody just now walked into the gym, they should have no idea if you are 0-for-8 or 8-for-8. Your body language should be the same.’ That’s big for Bryson. If you are going to have a great year shooting the ball, you’re still going to miss six out of every 10 times. The good athletes have a perfect reaction to failure, because in this game you are going to fail a lot, but then you get another chance.” Returning on the wing are junior Bryan Cohen, last year’s Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year, and senior G.W. Boon. As evidenced by his award, Cohen is the team’s No. 1 defender, a guy Paulsen can stick on the other team’s best scorer, practically no matter the size or position. Cohen had an up-and-down offensive campaign a year ago, when he averaged 8.8 points per game and shot 36.0 percent from the floor and 33.7 from 3-point range. At his best, Cohen is an excellent spot-up shooter who can also put the ball on the floor and either finish at the rim, pull up for a floater in the lane or dish to an open teammate. “Brian was the well-deserved defensive player of the year in our league and defensive player of the year on our team last year,” said Paulsen. “Again, we’re looking for more consistency from him on the offensive end. I think he kind of had an expectation last year that he was going to magically take this next step offen-

Darryl Shazier

sively, and I think he pressed and forced things and put too much pressure on himself. It had a negative domino effect. He’s a good offensive player. We want him to be the best defender in the league again, and we want him to be a more efficient player. Turnovers and decision-making are things that we want him to work on, to play with a little more maturity offensively. It’s a fine line. You want a guy to play with aggression, and he’s a guy that is capable of getting in the lane and driving it, but his decision-making when he gets in there, he has to show a little more patience. If he does, then he’s really going to help our team. Brian brings a toughness and competitiveness and a defensive presence, we just need him to continue to become more consistent in his decision-making and kind of simplify his game offensively.” Like Shazier, Boon has played in all 92 of Bucknell’s games over the last three seasons. During that time he has had some monster performances, mostly coming in off the bench and providing a big spark. In the road win at Colgate that helped turn Bucknell’s season around last January, Boon had 17 points in 26 minutes and made almost all of the key plays down the stretch in a one-point victory. The very next game he had 18 points in 21 minutes in a home win over eventual league champ Lehigh. He averaged 7.0 points and 2.9 rebounds in 18.3 minutes for the season. While he hit at least three 3-pointers in a game six times, he would like to elevate his 31.4 percent rate from long range after hitting 39.3 percent as a sophomore. “Again, consistency is probably the buzzword for the whole team, and it applies to G.W.

too,” said Paulsen. “When he’s good, well he’s as good as anyone I’ve ever coached. He basically turned our whole season around with his play down the stretch at Colgate, and then at Lehigh with a tear. It’s probably not realistic to expect that every night, but we need a lot more of that. For him, bringing that energy and that fire and that passion every day in practice as well as in games, that’s what a senior should be able to do. A senior should be able to operate without those big ups and downs.” One of the most versatile players in the lineup is graduate student Stephen Tyree, who has returned for a fifth season of eligibility after missing all of his junior year with a knee injury. Tyree does a little bit of everything for the Bison, and can play both on the wing and at either forward spot. He was the 2008 Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year and can be matched up against opponents of all shapes and sizes. Even at 6’3” he has twice led the team in rebounding, including last season at 5.2 per game. He is a career 54.3 percent shooter, and while his strength is driving the ball, he went 10-for-20 from 3-point range last season and will burn you if left open. Tyree led the team in both assists and rebounding as a sophomore, making him the only player in program history to lead in both of those categories in the same year. Tyree bounced back well from the knee injury last season, starting every game while averaging 5.7 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists. “I thought Stephen had a good year last year,” said Paulsen. “Putting in perspective that he played 26 minutes per game and didn’t miss a practice, that was pretty remarkable. He wanted more. I don’t think he was at his full mobility, but he does a lot of things that don’t show up in a boxscore. He’s a guy who makes winning plays. In a lot of close, one-possession games that we were able to win, he was the guy who got the deflection, got a loose ball, set a screen, did little things that were really valuable. In our workouts he looks better, he is moving more fluidly. I am optimistic that he is going to have an even better year. He just brings a lot to the table that is hard to quantify sometimes. He makes smart, winning plays.” Adding to the team’s backcourt depth are three very promising freshmen in Cameron Ayers, Ben Brackney and Ryan Hill. While Hill is a true point guard, Ayers can play both the point and shooting guard spots, and Brackney is best-suited for the “2” spot. Ayers has excellent basketball DNA, as he is the son of Randy Ayers, the former Ohio State and Phildelphia 76ers head coach, and current New Orleans Hornets assistant coach. Ayers brings a very polished game to the collegiate level after a stellar high school career at Germantown Academy near Philadelphia, and Paulsen expects him to make an immediate contribution. “Cameron is a very mature player for his age,” Paulsen offered. “You can tell he’s grown up around the game, and he played for a terrific

high school program at Germantown Academy. I think that for all freshmen the pace of the game can sometimes get too fast, but the game has slowed down a bit for him already. I think because of the deep immersion in the game that Cameron has had, he has been able to slow the game down more than any freshman I’ve seen. He’s got a very high basketball IQ. He has an efficient game offensively. He is versatile. He just can do a lot of things in a variety of ways and with great poise. Cameron is also one of those guys who makes everyone else better around him.” Hill, a native of the nearby Harrisburg area, hopes to become the team’s point guard of the future. He has good size at 6’3” and is a very long defender for his position. He gets the ball up and down the floor quickly and appears to be an excellent ball-handler. Like most freshmen, some of his fundamentals and decision-making need fine-tuning, but what Paulsen likes best about Hill is his competitiveness. “Ryan has been very impressive,” said Paulsen. “He is a big point guard. He has a lot of intangibles that you can’t teach. He has good basketball instincts and he’s very competitive. The adjustment to college and the attention to detail and our conditioning and fundamentals are a work in progress, and that’s all magnified being a point guard. The thing I like about him is in those moments where you can see Ryan’s head spinning and he’s not real sure what he’s supposed to do, he just shakes his head and says, ‘oh well, I’m just going to go make a play.’ A lot of times young guys when they get confused, they just stop. Ryan doesn’t stop competing. He can really pass, he can get to the rim, and he has good size. He’s going to be a very good player.” Brackney comes to Bucknell from Lincoln, Ill., and he brings along a good-looking jump shot. The Bison have struggled shooting the ball at times in recent years, and Brackney should certainly help in that area. He is also a solid defender who has already made strides in learning the Bucknell system at both ends of the floor. “Ben has a high basketball IQ and is a very good shooter,” said Paulsen. “He comes off screens very well and reads screens very

well. The pace of the game, the athleticism, the physicality are all new to him. In the early workouts he is starting to look much more at home on the court. We’re really excited about him. What his role will be this year, it’s still early to tell, but he’s going to be a good player.”

Frontcourt

Bucknell had one of the better young frontcourts in the Patriot League last year, and three sophomores and two juniors make up the rotation this season. At the center position the Bison return 6’11” Minnesotan Mike Muscala, who was a major impact player as a freshman last year. One of just four freshmen in league history to make one of the all-league teams last season — he was a second team selection — Muscala finished the year as the starting center and averaged 9.9 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. He led the Patriot League in blocked shots, setting a Bucknell freshman record in the process with 65. Muscala demonstrated an ability to finish with either hand inside, he has a smooth outside shooting stroke for a big man, and he shot over 80 percent from the free-throw line. Muscala has worked hard to bulk up his lean frame in the offseason, and Paulsen thinks that will ultimately result in more looks inside for Muscala. “Mike had a terrific freshman year, especially as he became more comfortable in the college game,” said Paulsen. “It was welldeserved him getting second-team all-league honors. He has worked extremely hard in the offseason in every facet of his game. He has been working tirelessly to put on weight and get stronger, and he has made some progress in that regard. He is not going to be confused with the Incredible Hulk anytime soon, but for him it’s a process. “For every one of us, the question is not ‘if,’ but ‘when’ for Mike. We all have to be mindful that there is a normal maturation curve for a 19-year-old kid. We can’t hit the fast-forward button on it, it’s going to happen physically, emotionally and in terms of putting his whole game together. To me, the best thing about Mike is that he is a fierce competitor. I just love it. He really competes. He puts every ounce of effort into practice and games. He is physically just completely spent because he plays so hard. He has to become a better rebounder for us, and I think he’s capable of that. His ability to block shots, his ability to score inside and

outside gives him great versatility. Mike really helped us defensively. He’s very skilled shooting the ball. He has made a concerted effort to make sure he shoots a higher percentage of his shots in the paint. He will have the freedom to step outside because he does that very well, but we want to make sure he asserts himself in the paint.” Also returning after a solid rookie year is sophomore Joe Willman, who joined Muscala and Bryson Johnson on the Patriot League AllRookie Team last year. Willman played in all 31 games with 15 starts at the “4” position, and by season’s end he was a force offensively, defensively and on the glass. Willman averaged 5.6 points per game for the entire year, and in Patriot League play he had a run of four straight games in which he scored in double figures and shot 63 percent from the field. He had a 15-point game and a 12-rebound game, and he seems to work really well with his classmate Muscala up front. “I thought Joe had a good freshman year,” said Paulsen. “He has a high, high basketball IQ, maybe as high as anyone on our team. He really understands the game, both offensively and defensively. He has an innate sense of what needs to happen and where the ball needs to be. He has a nose for the ball. He’s a really good rebounder and defender. Joe struggled shooting the ball early in the year, and that coincided with some of our struggles as a team. And then him shooting the ball really well when we got into league play coincided with us winning eight out of 10. He’s played well so far in the team workouts. With Mike and Joe, we have two skilled, versatile and smart forwards. In some ways, we’ll be able to play through our forwards because they are skilled at passing, dribbling and shooting. They are not just robotic big men.” Another member of the Class of 2013 up front is Colin Klebon, who didn’t play quite as much as Muscala and Willman as a freshman last season, but still showed plenty of potential. A local product from nearby Southern Columbia High School, Klebon had 25 points and 19 rebounds in 84 minutes of action last season, including an 11-point game against La Salle. Paulsen thinks that Klebon’s continued development would be huge for the Bison. “Colin has definitely made strides,” offered Paulsen. “It was a huge adjustment for him, the intensity of the game on a daily basis, the attention to detail. He’s made progress. He’s not all the way there yet, but he’s a lot closer than he was a year ago. He can really shoot the ball, and that covers up a lot of sins. He has the potential to really be a good rebounder. He’s right on the cusp of being in our rotation, and

if he is a key member of our rotation, then that means he has continued that progression, and that would make us such a better team. Without over-dramatizing it, his development is as key a factor in our success maybe than anyone else’s. Because if he is a solid rotation guy all the way through as a sophomore, then we’ve got some size and better depth and versatility.” Junior Enoch Andoh played significant minutes off the bench as a freshman in 200809, perhaps a bit more than he was ready for. Last year, with the infusion of the MuscalaWillman-Klebon rookie trio up front, Andoh’s gameday minutes decreased, but that masked the improvements he was making every day in practice. Andoh is a true back-to-the-basket low-post presence, and he has the size and strength to mix it up in the paint. “Enoch is a big key for this team,” said Paulsen. “Entering the start of preseason, we really don’t have a backup center. It’s the only position where nobody has stepped up and said they really want it. He is capable of doing that job. He is our most legitimate low-post presence offensively with his size. He understands the game. He is in better shape than he’s been. We are looking for consistent production and effort from him on a daily basis, and then he can really help us.” Junior Probese Leo came to Bucknell with very little basketball experience, and he is still working at harnessing his natural athletic ability. Even though he has not seen much game action yet, he has provided a good look for his teammates in practice. “Probese has made some strides,” said Paulsen. “His struggle has been putting together a bunch of really good days in a row. On the days when he does it, he’s big, he’s long, he can throw his body around and make a jump hook around the basket.” New to the frontcourt unit this season is 6’8” sophomore Brian Fitzpatrick, who has transferred in from the University of Pennsylvania. Fitzpatrick will not be eligible to play in games this season, but he is practicing with the team and provides another strong big man to go up against the first unit every day. “Brian has fit in very well with our guys, in terms of academically and in the community and in being a part of our team,” Paulsen said. “He plays really hard, he wins every conditioning sprint and is in unbelievable shape. He is going to give us a good presence in practice this year. The big thing for him is to improve his skill level and his understanding and instinctiveness on the court. He’ll have a chance to do that without any pressure in a sense, because he’ll just be in there practicing without worrying about anything impacting his playing time.”

The Bucknell basketball program has enjoyed tremendous success in the classroom in recent years. Among the highlights:  The Bison men’s basketball team had combined GPAs over 3.0 in both semesters in 2009-10.  The Bison men’s basketball program easily met the national standard in the NCAA’s Academic Performance Rate (APR) study, released last April. The men’s basketball APR is 994 (out of 1,000), which is in the top 10 percent nationally and earned the Bison program an NCAA APR Public Recognition Award.  Bucknell has claimed 118 national Academic All-Americans since 1970, including eight from men’s basketball. The total of 118 ranks fifth among all Division I institutions, trailing only Nebraska, Notre Dame, Penn State and Stanford.  In the Patriot League’s 20-year history, the league’s men’s basketball Scholar-Athlete of the Year has come from Bucknell nine times.  Chris McNaughton in 2007 became the first player in league history to win Patriot League Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors three times. The electrical engineering major who was also a three-time first-team all-league player, was named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District Team in 2006.

 BINGO!: The NCAA instituted the 3-point shot in 1986-87, and since then Bucknell has played 708 games. The Bison have failed to make at least one 3-pointer in only five of those 708 games (1/30/89 at Cornell, 1/16/93 vs. Lafayette, 2/5/00 at Navy, 12/22/00 at Penn State and 2/29/04 at Colgate). Bucknell has converted a trifecta in 189 straight games. Stephen Tyree

DAVE Paulsen on BOon: “When G.W. is good, well he’s as good as anyone. He basically turned our whole season around with his play down the stretch at Colgate, and then at Lehigh with a tear. For him, bringing that energy and that fire and that passion every day in practice as well as in games, that’s what a senior should be able to do.”

Dave Paulsen on KLEBON: “Colin has definitely made strides. It was a huge adjustment for him, the intensity of the game on a daily basis, the attention to detail. He has the potential to really be a good rebounder. If he is a key member of our rotation, then that means he has continued that progression, and that would make us such a better team. Without over-dramatizing it, his development is as key a factor in our success maybe than anyone else’s.”

DAVE Paulsen on LEO: “Probese has made some strides. His struggle is putting together a bunch of really good days in a row. On the days when he does it, he’s big, he’s long, he can throw his body around and make a jump hook around the basket.”

DAVE Paulsen on muscala: “Mike had a terrific freshman year, especially as he became more comfortable in the college game. It was well-deserved him getting second-team all-league. He has worked extremely hard in the offseason in every facet of his game. To me, the best thing about Mike is that he is a fierce competitor. I just love it. He really competes. He puts every ounce of effort into practice and games. He is physically just completely spent because he plays so hard.”

DAVE Paulsen on SHAZIER: “Darryl had a good year as a junior. He scored 10 points per game, was our leading scorer and team MVP, and all of that is good, but we need him to be more consistent. We need him, when he misses his first couple of shots, to still have an aggressive mindset. I can remember some performances where he was just phenomenal and he exuded confidence, and then some games where he didn’t play as well and he did not exude confidence. We want him to exude confidence whether he’s 8-for-8 or 0-for-8. That’s a challenge and a goal for him, and it will be a huge factor in how well we do.”

DAVE Paulsen on TYREE: “I thought Stephen had a good year last year coming off the injury. Putting in perspective that he played 26 minutes per game and didn’t miss a practice, that was pretty remarkable. He’s a guy who makes winning plays. In a lot of close, one-possession games that we were able to win, he was the guy who got the deflection, got a loose ball, set a screen, did little things that were really valuable. We want him to take on an even bigger, more active leadership role.”

DAVE Paulsen on Willman: “Joe has made good strides. I thought Joe had a good freshman year. He has a high, high basketball IQ, maybe as high as anyone on our team. He really understands the game, both offensively and defensively. He has an innate sense of what needs to happen and where the ball needs to be. He’s a really good rebounder and defender. He struggled shooting the ball early in the year, and that coincided with some of our struggles. And then him shooting the ball really well when we got into league play coincided with us winning eight out of 10.” 2010-11 Bucknell Men’s Basketball • 52 • www.BucknellBison.com

The Coaching Staff


Head Coach Dave Paulsen

Dave Paulsen, a two-time National Coach of the Year who led Williams College to the 2003 Division III national championship, was named the head men’s basketball coach at Bucknell on May 20, 2008, and he enters his third season on the Bison bench in 2010-11. Paulsen, a 1987 Williams graduate and a Phi Beta Kappa scholar, has coached at every level of college basketball over the last two decades, has won nearly 64 percent of his games as a head coach, and is considered a highly sought-after consultant on the principles of the motion offense. Paulsen, 46, came to Bucknell as its 20th head basketball coach after leading Williams to the top of the Division III ranks. In eight years at Williams, he guided the Ephs to a 170-53 (.762) record, including a combined 61-3 mark in 2002-03 and 2003-04. His team captured the 2003 national championship and was the national runner-up in 2004. The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Coach of the Year in both 2003 and 2004, Paulsen’s teams won three NESCAC championships (2003, 2004, 2007) and made four NCAA Tournament appearances (2002, 2003, 2004, 2007). He was a three-time NESCAC Coach of the Year and two-time New England Coach of the Year. “Bucknell men’s basketball has established a superb record of winning on the court with outstanding young men who are dedicated scholar-athletes,” said former Bucknell president Brian C. Mitchell at the time of Paulsen’s hiring. “Coach Paulsen is

precisely the first-class leader we sought for this exceptional program. He knows what it is like to recruit the best student-athletes, to prepare them for success on the national level, and to bring honor and credit to the university in doing so. We are proud to welcome Coach Paulsen into the Bison coaching staff, and look forward to the tremendous successes ahead of him.” “At the end of a comprehensive national search, it is clear that Dave Paulsen is the coach who can build upon Bucknell’s winning tradition in the men’s basketball program,” said director of athletics John Hardt in announcing Paulsen’s hiring. “Coach Paulsen has recruited successfully at the Division I level, and he has built a championship program at an academically minded liberal arts institution. Perhaps more impressive than his won-loss ledger is his track record in developing quality student-athletes who represent their school and their community with pride. During the search process, it did not take long to understand just how well-respected Coach Paulsen is across the coaching profession, both as a colleague and as a basketball strategist.” Prior to his tenure at Williams, Paulsen served as head coach at Le Moyne from 1997-2000 and at St. Lawrence from 199497. He compiled a three-year record of 4239 at Le Moyne, while also serving as the school’s director of NCAA compliance. At St. Lawrence, he posted a 50-28 record in three seasons, including the 1995-96 and 1996-97 campaigns in which the Saints made backto-back NCAA Tournament appearances, and he was twice named the Upstate Collegiate Athletic Association Coach of the Year. In 16 years as a head coach at Bucknell, Williams, Le Moyne and St. Lawrence, Paulsen has produced a record of 283160 (.639). In 1989-90, Paulsen served as the graduate assistant coach on Steve Fisher’s staff at Michigan while completing his master’s degree in history. Paulsen was part of a Wolverines program that went 23-8 and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, and he had the opportunity to coach six players who would later become NBA draft picks. From 1990-94, Paulsen was the senior assistant

coach and recruiting coordinator at Cleveland State, helping the Vikings to a 64-50 record in four seasons, including a 22-6 record (15-1 Mid-Continent Conference) in 1992-93. Paulsen graduated from Williams cum laude with departmental honors in history. He was also a member of the Ephs’ varsity basketball team. In 1987, his squad captured the ECAC New England Division III championship. Upon his return to Williams as head coach, Paulsen also served as an assistant professor of physical education, which is fitting since he is widely regarded as one of college basketball’s most accomplished teachers. Known as an offensive innovator, Paulsen has produced four acclaimed instructional videos, entitled “Ten Offensive Principles for the Adaptable Motion Offense,” “Motion Offense for Beginners,” “Developing Explosive Perimeter Players,” and “Principles of Effective Post Play.” Paulsen has been a featured clinician at more than 50 developmental camps and coaches conventions throughout the nation, including the prestigious Nike Championship Basketball Clinics. He was even asked to participate in a pair of clinics in Portugal. Paulsen has been chosen to serve on the NCAA Division I Regional Advisory Committee, where he will provide input on the selection of the NCAA Tournament field. “I am very excited about the opportunity to carry on the tradition of success that has been built at Bucknell through the years,” said Paulsen at the time of his hiring. “Bucknell has distinguished itself among a very small group of schools that have been able to win games in the NCAA Tournament and yet hold true to the ideal of the scholar-athlete.” Paulsen and his wife, Kathy, have three daughters: Claire (15), Sara (11) and Molly (8).

Dane Fischer, a 2002 Ithaca College graduate and a two-year captain on the Bombers’ basketball team, is entering his third season at Bucknell.

In 2007-08 he helped lead the Broncs to a school-record 23 victories and

a Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) regular-season championship. In addition to his on-court duties, Fischer served as the program’s recruiting coordinator. He brought an all-conference and an all-rookie performer to the Lawrenceville, N.J., campus, and he helped land a top-200-rated recruit — the highest-rated in program history — during the November early signing period. At Rider, Fischer coached NBA lottery pick Jason Thompson, who was the top senior taken in the 2008 Draft. Thompson was picked 12th overall by the Sacramento Kings. At Rider, he was named the Haggerty Award winner as the 2008 Metropolitan Basketball Writers Player of the Year, Associated Press Honorable Mention All-America, the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Player of the Year, the District II Player of the Year by the U.S. Basketball Writers and to the First Team All-District 3 team by the National Basketball Coaches. He was also an All-America selection by collegeinsider.com. Fischer was also Rider’s scheduling coordinator, oversaw fundraising initiatives such as the Rider Basketball Golf Outing and fall booster drive. From 2003-05, Fischer was an assistant coach on Paulsen’s staff at Williams. In those two seasons, Williams went 46-11 and finished as the national runner-up in 2004.

Bucknell Sports Medicine mark keppler assistant director of athletics, head athletic trainer Assistant Athletic Director Mark Keppler, now in his 25th year as Bucknell’s head athletic trainer, oversees Bucknell’s athletic training and sports medicine program. Keppler coordinates the work of six professional staff members, a graduate assistant, an intern and a dedicated group of student assistants. The head trainer at Carnegie Mellon University for 11 years before coming to Bucknell, Keppler is a member of the National Athletic Trainers Association and is both state- and nationallycertified. From 1982-84 he served as president of the Pennsylvania Athletic Training Society, and from 1984-97 he served with the Athletic Training Advisory Commission to the State Board of Physical Therapy. He is currently the Convention Chair for PATS and was inducted into that organization’s Hall of Fame in June 2006. Keppler is a 1973 graduate of Florida State University and holds a master’s degree from the University of Pittsburgh. After working with the football program for his first three years at Bucknell, Keppler moved to the fieldhouse training room to coordinate the athletic training office for the entire athletic department. In the fall of 1999, he once again took over as the primary football trainer, in addition to running the athletic training office. Keppler also serves as the primary athletic trainer for spring football, and supervises off-season rehabilitation programs for any injured Bison football players. Keppler and his wife, Wanda, reside in Lewisburg and are the parents of daughters Sarah and Reta.

Bucknell’s athletic training staff, headed by Mark Keppler, provides outstanding medical care for each of Bucknell’s student-athletes. In 2003, Keppler and his staff moved into a brand new, state-of-the-art athletic training room as part of the Kenneth G. Langone Athletics and Recreation Center design. There is also a fully-equipped athletic training facility in Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium, adjacent to the football team locker room, and satellite training rooms at Sojka Pavilion and West Fields. The philosophy of the Bucknell sports medicine team is a commitment to providing the best care for Bison student-athletes. Its injury and rehab protocols are developed to help decrease athletics-related injuries, increase injury recovery time, and combine strength and flexibility, endurance and sport-specific functional activities. Every injured Bucknell student-athlete is attended by an athletic trainer at the time the injury occurs. Each of Bucknell’s professional staff trainers are state and nationally certified, and they are assisted on-site by a quality team of student athletic trainers. The care for all Bucknell students ultimately falls under the direction of Dr. Donald Stechschulte, the director of the University’s student health service. Athletes sustaining serious injuries requiring immediate attention in a hospital setting are sent to the emergency room of the Evangelical Community Hospital, located just two miles from the Bucknell campus.

Community & Alumni Relations

Bison Give Back to the Lewisburg Community Head coach Dave Paulsen believes very strongly in giving back to the local community that has shown so much support to the Bison basketball program throughout the years. In each of his first three seasons at Bucknell, Paulsen and his team conducted a free instructional clinic and autograph session that was very well attended by local youths. In addition, team members have visited two local elementary schools to participate in the Dream to Read program, where players read books with youngsters in their classrooms. The team visits a local soup kitchen to serve meals to needy families and also makes regular appearances at the Lewisburg Food Bank. In recent years the team has made it a tradition to pay a Halloween visit to the Janet Weis Children’s Hospital at the Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, Pa., each fall. The coaching staff and a host of Bison players make the trip to the hospital to lift the spirits of the children they spend time with. For the student-athletes, the experience is both eye-opening and gratifying. On Jan. 16. 2011, the Bison will host the Seventh Annual Dirk Sojka Slam Dunk with Bison Basketball, with proceeds benefitting Suncom Industries, where persons with disabilities learn to reach their full potential. Suncom was the workplace of Dirk Sojka, son of Gary and Sandy Sojka, until Dirk’s passing in July 2002. Paulsen and his staff also place great emphasis on alumni relations, keeping former Bison players in the Bucknell Basketball family. The annual golf tournament is one of several events geared toward alums and supporters of the program. This past summer, more than 100 golfers participated in the event. The annual Alumni Game will be held on Feb. 5, 2011.

The Patriot League, which was founded on the principles of admitting athletes who are academically representative of their class, is in its third decade of academic and athletic achievement. Participation in athletics at Patriot League institutions is viewed as an important component of a well-rounded education. The Patriot League began as a successful Division I-AA (now called Football Championship Subdivision) football conference in 1986. Full League members include American, Army, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh and Navy. Associate members include Fordham and Georgetown in football and Massachusetts Institute of Technology in women’s rowing. In the classroom, the Patriot League’s full-member institutions, individually and collectively, consistently rank among the top Division I programs in the NCAA Graduation Rates Report. Since 1998, the Patriot League has ranked first among all Division I conferences in student-athlete graduation rates according to the NCAA Graduation Rates report. The League finished at the top spot with 96 percent of its teams reporting a graduation rate of 85 percent or higher in the most recent data. In addition, 90 Patriot League teams earned NCAA Academic Performance Program Public Recognition Awards after posting academic progress rate scores in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports. League members have also distinguished themselves on the field of play. The Patriot League sponsors championship competition in 23 sports (11 for men; 12 for women). Championship teams from 14 sports are guaranteed advancement into NCAA postseason competition: baseball, men and women’s basketball, field hockey, football, men’s golf, men and women’s lacrosse, men and women’s soccer, softball, men and women’s tennis and volleyball. Along the timeline of Patriot League history about three-quarters of the Patriot League’s Scholar-Athletes of the Year also received All-Patriot League status for their exemplary athletic performance. In the Patriot League’s history, more than 200 student-athletes have been recognized as CoSIDA Academic All-Americans, while more than 12,000 have qualified for the League’s Academic Honor Roll. More than 30 student-athletes have received NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships. Additionally, Patriot League student-athletes have earned Fulbright Scholarships, Rhodes Scholarships, Marshall Scholarships and NACDA/Disney Scholarships.

The Presidents’ Cup The Presidents’ Cup signifies overall excellence in the 23 sports sponsored by the Patriot League, and Bucknell has won the Cup 16 times in its 20-year existence, including 12 of the last 13 years. The Presidents’ Cup is awarded annually to the institution that accumulates the highest point total over the entire academic year, with points awarded on the basis of the school’s finish in each of the 23 Patriot League sports. If there is a league tournament in a sport, the points are awarded based on the average of the regular season and tournament finish, and if there is no post-season tournament, points are awarded based on regular-season standings.

mercer 89, bucknell 80 dunkin’ donuts center providence, r.i. • nov. 13, 2009

James Florence scored 33 points and Jeff Smith scored 16, including two critical 3-pointers down the stretch, leading Mercer past Bucknell 89-80 in a wild season-opening contest at the World Vision Invitational at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. The loss spoiled the debut of Bucknell freshman Bryson Johnson, who hit six 3-pointers en route to a team-high 18 points. Bryan Cohen and Darryl Shazier added 17 points each for the Bison, who had a very good opening night offensively but just could not get enough stops down the stretch. Bucknell shot 46.6 percent from the field, even with a number of shots in the paint that rimmed out in the first half. The Bison lit it up from 3-point range, making 11 of 18 (.611). They had actually made 11 of their first 16 before missing two desperation attempts in the final seconds. Johnson was on right from the start. He canned his first collegiate attempt 5:42 into the game and started 6-for-8 from the arc. Johnson’s 18 points were the most by a Bison freshman in his debut game since John Griffin had 18 against Princeton in 2004.

Mike Muscala keyed a big effort from Bucknell’s freshman class with a team-high 12 points, and the Bison held off a major charge from Bryant down the stretch to pick up their first win of the season, 59-56 at the World Vision Invitational. The Bulldogs turned a 20-point second-half deficit into a one possession game, but some big plays by Bryan Cohen down the stretch helped Bucknell get in the win column. At times the Bison looked like a team playing for the third time in 43 hours. They shot only 33.3 percent from the field and had trouble chasing down the red-hot Cecil Gresham, who scored 17 of his 26 points in the second half. Bucknell survived an ugly first half and led 25-15 at the halfway mark despite shooting only 27.6 percent. The Bison were much sharper in the opening minutes of the second half, however, hitting five of their first six shots to open up a 20-point lead.

For the second straight night the Bison men’s basketball squad put forth a superb effort, only to fall a little short at the end against a quality team. This time it was Big East foe Providence pulling away late for a closer-than-thescore-appears 76-65 victory before a crowd of 7,163 at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center. Bucknell led throughout virtually the entire first half and held the lead or was tied for 25:21 out of the 40 minutes. Facing full-court pressure from start to finish, the Bison turned the ball over only 11 times, not once against the press. Bryan Cohen scored a team-high 18 points, Darryl Shazier added 12 and freshman Joe Willman 11 for the Bison. Providence, coming off 96-53 walk-over against Bryant a night earlier, had a much tougher time in this one, but in the end it was the Friars’ length on the offensive glass that was the difference.

bucknell 82, Delaware 66 carpenter center newark, del. • Nov. 18, 2009

Playing its fourth game in six days to start the season, Bucknell had plenty left in the tank and came away with an emphatic 82-66 road win at Delaware. Point guard Darryl Shazier scored a career-high 24 points and Patrick Behan added 18 for the Bison. Bucknell trailed 20-18 with six minutes left in the first half, then sandwiched a 24-4 run across the halftime break. Shazier was the catalyst. He drove the length of the floor for a layup that turned into a 3-point play that gave the Bison the lead for good with 5:11 left in the half. Later in the half he canned two free throws, then finished a breakaway layup after a Bryan Cohen steal. Bucknell led 36-24 at the half, then buckets by Joe Willman, Behan and Cohen to start the second period stretched the lead to 42-24.

Patrick Behan registered 23 points and 12 rebounds to help Bucknell win its home opener, 70-58 over Saint Francis (Pa.). Joe Willman also had 12 rebounds to go with eight points as the Bison won their third in a row after an 0-2 start. Devin Sweetney logged 16 points and Will Felder added 11 off the bench for the Red Flash, who trimmed a 15-point second-half deficit down to two before the Bison steadied themselves down the stretch. The Bison shot 40 percent overall on the night but made just 2 of 16 3-point tries. Bucknell got it done inside and on the glass, however. The home team outscored Saint Francis 44-26 in the paint and parlayed 16 offensive rebounds into a 23-2 edge in second-chance points. Willman and Behan were the catalyst on the offensive end, hustling down a combined 12 offensive rebounds. In fact, Behan’s offensive rebound and put-back with 9:34 left in the game may have been the turning point.

bucknell 85, wagner 61 spiro sports center staten island, n.y. • nov. 28, 2009

Bucknell’s three-game winning streak came to an end at the hands of Noruwa Agho and the hot-shooting Columbia Lions, who knocked down 13 of 18 3-point attempts en route to a 73-59 win at Levien Gymnasium. Agho was 7-for-8 from the arc himself and scored a game-high 23 points as Columbia improved to 2-1. Patrick Behan scored 15, Stephen Tyree had 12 and G.W. Boon 11 off the bench for the Bison. Bucknell trailed by three at the half but led by eight points at 51-43 with 10:14 left after Boon hit his third 3-pointer in a two-minute span. But the Bison could not close it out. They would not make another field goal until the final seconds, and Columbia outscored them 30-8 the rest of the way.

Bryson Johnson scored a career-high 19 points, Darryl Shazier registered 17 points and eight assists and Bryan Cohen scored 13 of his 16 in a huge second half to lead Bucknell to an 85-61 runaway over Wagner at Spiro Sports Center. Bucknell was clinging to a 42-40 lead in the early moments of the second half when it exploded for 20 points in a row to blow it open. The Bison scored in just about every imaginable way during the run: in the paint, from the 3-point arc, on the fastbreak and from the foul line. After a quiet first half, Cohen was the catalyst. With the Bison up just two, he scored on a pullup in the lane, made a free throw, then drove and kicked out to Shazier for a 3-pointer that made it 48-40, and the rout was on.

Bucknell and eventual Sweet 16 participant Cornell engaged in a terrific high-scoring affair at Sojka Pavilion, but in the end it was the veteran Big Red holding on for a 104-98 overtime victory. Darryl Shazier led the Bison with 22 points, three of them coming on a buzzer-beater at the end of regulation, while freshman Mike Muscala had his best game to date with 20 points, seven rebounds and four blocked shots. Seven-foot center Jeff Foote had a monster night, producing 28 points and 18 rebounds for the Big Red, the two-time defending Ivy League champs who had already beaten Alabama and Massachusetts on the road. Fellow seniors Ryan Wittman (25 points) and Louis Dale (12 points, 7 assists) also made critical plays down the stretch for Cornell, which improved to 6-1 away from home, with the only loss coming to No. 9 Syracuse.

Bucknell’s weekend road trip got off to a slow start, as the Bison struggled offensively in a 64-60 loss at Binghamton at the Events Center. Two days after scoring 98 points in an emotionally charged overtime loss to Cornell, the Bison managed only 13 points in the first half, and despite one 3-point flurry in the second half, could not make up an 18-point second-half deficit. Reserves Mike Muscala and G.W. Boon led the Bison with 14 and 12 points, respectively, but the Bison received only 23 points from its starting five. Greer Wright led four Binghamton players in double figures with 16 points. It was a miserable first half for the Bison, who shot only 24 percent (6-24) from the field and missed their final eight 3-point attempts after Darryl Shazier hit one on the first offensive possession of the game. The Bearcats stretched their lead to 14 at 27-13 on two Camara free throws with 1:30 left, closing out the first-half scoring.

For the second straight game the Bucknell men’s basketball team made a big second-half run but just could not get over the hump after a very slow start, and the Bison fell 63-53 at Boston University. G.W. Boon hit five 3-pointers and scored a season-high 17 points, while Patrick Behan tallied 12 points and six rebounds for the Bison. Jake O’Brien led the Terriers with 17 points and eight rebounds, while Corey Lowe and Carlos Strong had 11 apiece off the bench, with both hitting critical shots in the final minutes after the Bison had cut a 16-point deficit down to three. Leading scorer John Holland, who came in averaging better than 20 points per game, was held to 10. Bucknell played well defensively and on the glass but could not overcome 10 turnovers and 5-for-26 shooting in the first half. Boston University, the preseason favorite in the America East conference, shot 40.4 percent and went 7-for-22 from the arc.

La Salle 83, bucknell 70 tom gola arena philadelphia, pa. • dec. 19, 2009

Kimmani Barrett scored 23 points and Rodney Green added 22 to lead host La Salle to an 83-70 victory over Bucknell in front of just a handful of fans who braved a heavy winter snowstorm. Freshmen Mike Muscala (15), Bryson Johnson (12) and Colin Klebon (11) all scored in double figures for the Bison, who led 41-39 at the half before going cold at the start of the second. La Salle, one of the top teams in the Atlantic 10, improved to 7-3, with its only losses coming to South Carolina, Villanova and Kansas. La Salle outscored Bucknell 25-10 to open the second half, erasing what had been a very solid first half for the Bison. After trailing by two at the half, La Salle came out flying to start the second period. The Explorers made seven of their first 10 shots en route to a 58.7-percent shooting night, while the Bison started the half 2-for-9. Bucknell warmed back up offensively for a stretch in the second half, pulling within eight at 64-56 on Johnson’s third 3-pointer of the day. But the Bison just could not get enough stops defensively against the athletic Explorers, and the double-digit deficit was too much to overcome.

All-American Luke Harangody produced 20 points, 11 rebounds and five assists, and Notre Dame rode a red-hot shooting start to a 101-69 victory over Bucknell at Purcell Pavilion. Bryson Johnson scored 17 points and Stephen Tyree added a season-high 15 for the Bison. Notre Dame, improving to 11-2, also received 16 points from Ben Hansbrough and 15 from Tim Abromaitis. It was a rough opening 20 minutes for the Bison, who just could not keep up with Notre Dame’s shooting barrage.

loyola (md.) 55, bucknell 49 sojka pavilion lewisburg, pa. • dec. 28, 2009

Bucknell served up its best defensive effort and worst offensive performance of the season in the same night, but the offensive woes trumped the solid defense as the Bison fell 55-49 to Loyola (Md.) at Sojka Pavilion. Mike Muscala had 10 points, six rebounds and four blocked shots, but Bucknell’s losing skein reached six. Loyola, which was coming off a landmark win over Indiana, received 17 points from Anthony Winbush and 10 off the bench from leading scorer Jamal Barney, who made three big field goals in the final five minutes to help thwart a Bucknell comeback attempt. The Greyhounds took a 26-17 halftime lead as the Bison just could not get anything going offensively, despite some decent looks at the basket. Bucknell made only three of its first 19 field goal attempts and made things worse with a 1-for-8 start at the foul line.

Bryan Cohen canned a go-ahead 3-pointer with 20 seconds left, then came up with a big defensive stop and rebound in the final seconds to lift Bucknell to a 70-67 overtime win over Marist at Sojka Pavilion. Mike Muscala scored a game-high 18 points, including a clutch game-tying 3-pointer in the final minute, to help the Bison snap a six-game losing streak. Cohen’s big plays in the waning seconds were part of a 16-point, 10-rebound double-double. Point guard Darryl Shazier also scored 16 points and had six assists, including the helpers on all three of Bucknell’s field goals in overtime. Bryson Johnson also reached double digits with 11 points off the bench. The game was tightly contested from start to finish. Neither team led by more than six all night, and not by more than four for the entire second half and overtime.

Kevin Anderson scored 25 points, including six big ones in the final minute, to lead Richmond to its 11th win of the year, 59-50 over host Bucknell. Bryson Johnson scored 11 points and Bryan Cohen had 10 for the Bison, who cut a 15-point second-half deficit down to three but could not get over the hump. Anderson, who was coming off a 31-point performance against Wake Forest, hit a difficult shot in the lane with the Spiders leading by just three with a minute to play, and later he hit four straight free throws to ice it. Anderson, Justin Harper (15) and Ryan Butler (11) combined to score 51 of Richmond’s 59 points. Bucknell was very strong defensively and on the glass, but it was undermined by turnovers and frosty 3-point shooting after a good start. Richmond, a veteran team that boasted wins over No. 13 Florida, Missouri and Mississippi State earlier in the season, led by as many as 10 points on three occasions in the first half.

Bucknell’s offense was as cold as the New Hampshire weather at Leede Arena, as the Bison fell to Dartmouth 49-43. R.J. Griffin led all scorers with 16 points for Dartmouth, while G.W. Boon paced the Bison with 12 points and nine rebounds. Bucknell shot just 30.6 percent from the field and turned the ball over 15 times, and it was doomed by five straight empty possessions in a four-point game in the final four minutes. The Bison had cut a 14-point deficit down to four with four minutes to play but never scored again. Patrick Behan added 10 points and five rebounds for the Bison. Dartmouth shot 45.2 percent and committed only nine turnovers, two in the first half. Boon had eight of his nine rebounds on the offensive glass, as the Bison outrebounded Dartmouth 35-23.

navy 69, bucknell 67 SOJKA PAVILION LEWISBURG, PA. • jan. 9, 2010

O.J. Avworo’s driving layup with just over a minute to play gave Navy a hardfought 69-67 victory over Bucknell at Sojka Pavilion in the Patriot League openers for both teams. Bryson Johnson had 18 points and Mike Muscala tallied 16 points, eight rebounds and seven blocked shots for the Bison. Miscues hurt the Bison down the stretch in this one. Twice in the final five minutes of a tightly contested game Navy hit transition 3-pointers off Bucknell turnovers. First it was Greg Brown canning a left-corner 3-pointer after Jordan Sugars took the ball away from Patrick Behan, snapping a 58-all tie with 4:51 left. Later, Bucknell had possession of the ball up 64-63 with two minutes left, but a pass was intercepted in the frontcourt. That led to a Romeo Garcia pull-up 3-pointer from the top of the key. Bucknell went right back ahead 67-66 on Johnson’s fourth 3-pointer of the night, coming with 1:25 remaining. Then Avworo drove down the left side of the lane and flipped in a tough shot off the glass for only his second field goal of the night.

Patrick Behan registered 22 points and seven rebounds, Bryson Johnson hit the tying 3-pointer late in regulation en route to a 16-point night, and the Bison picked up their first victory of 2010 with a 72-68 overtime verdict over American at Sojka Pavilion. Bucknell did not have the best shooting night (39.7 percent), but it set a school record by committing only one turnover in the 45-minute game. The Bison also conceded only eight fouls, never putting the Eagles in the bonus in either half or overtime, and they outscored American 18-7 from the foul line. Mike Muscala hit two critical shots in overtime and finished with eight points, five rebounds and three blocks, while another freshman, Joe Willman, gave the Bison a big lift off the bench with eight points as well as some strong second-half defense on American’s go-to player Vlad Moldoveanu. Moldoveanu had 19 points and 13 rebounds for American, but he was just 6-for-16 from the field and had four turnovers. After Johnson tied it with a trey with 30 seconds left in regulation, American went to Moldoveanu, but Cohen made a great defensive stand.

Devin Brown scored a career-high 29 points and Holy Cross parlayed a 55-point second half into an 82-69 victory over Bucknell at the Hart Center. Bryson Johnson and Darryl Shazier scored 16 points each for the Bison. Mike Muscala added 14 points and Patrick Behan 12 as Bucknell shot 53.7 percent from the field but was outrebounded 35-19 and outscored 24-5 at the free-throw line. Holy Cross also received 15 points from R.J. Evans and 10 from Andrew Beinert. Bucknell had just taken its biggest lead of the game at four points five minutes into the second half, when Holy Cross stunned the Bison with a 19-2 run to take control. A key sequence occurred around the 13-minute mark. Leading by two, Shazier had a 3-pointer rim in and out, and Brown came down in transition and swished a 3-pointer to give the Crusaders the lead back. Then Bucknell got trapped in the front court and turned it over, leading to an Eric Meister 3-point play. A fastbreak layup by Evans made it 10 straight points and a 48-42 lead with 10:46 to play.

Bucknell came back from an early 13-point deficit and played one of its better defensive games of the year against the top-scoring team in the Patriot League, but first-place Lafayette made enough plays down the stretch to hold off the Bison 61-57 at Kirby Sports Center. Bryan Cohen had 13 points and five assists while holding Lafayette’s high-scoring Ryan Willen to five points. Stephen Tyree added 10 points, eight rebounds, five assists and three steals for the Bison, who were playing without injured forward Mike Muscala. Jared Mintz had 17 points and 11 rebounds and Michael Gruner added 14 points for the Leopards, who improved to 4-0 in the Patriot League and 13-6 overall.

G.W. Boon and Mike Muscala combined for 33 points off the bench and Bucknell gamely battled back from a 13-point deficit to defeat Colgate at Cotterell Court, 62-61. Bryan Cohen added 12 points and four assists for the Bison, who outscored Colgate 33-21 in the second half and came up with a huge defensive stand in the final seconds. The Bison trailed 26-13 early in the game, 40-29 at the half and 61-57 with 4:10 to play. But after Kyle Roemer’s jumper at the 4:10 mark, Colgate never scored again, as a free throw by Cohen and two straight baskets by Muscala won it for Bucknell. Boon equaled his season-high with 17 points, while Muscala, back in action after missing the previous game at Lafayette with an ankle injury, hit 8 of 12 shots and scored 16 points. on the final possession. Colgate passed the ball into Jonson in the low post, and Bucknell not only smothered Johnson on the right block, but it denied a kick-out pass to Roemer. Finally, with the clock about to expire, Jonson had to fling up a prayer at the buzzer that fell way short.

On a night in which it made just 1 of 18 3-point shots, Bucknell turned to defense and rebounding to gut out a 55-48 win over Army before 3,214 fans at Sojka Pavilion. Mike Muscala registered 13 points and seven rebounds for the Bison, who won their third straight game and pulled within one game of first place at the midway point of the Patriot League schedule. Bucknell essentially held Army without a field goal for the final 10:23 of the game, conceding only a giveaway layup with eight seconds left in a nine-point game. In the second half the Black Knights shot only 23.1 percent (6-26) and went 0-for-7 from 3-point range. The Black Knights’ last field goal of consequence was a floater in the lane by Julian Simmons that brought them within 39-37. But the Bison forced 12 straight misses and were able to ever-so-slowly pad their lead despite their own shooting woes.

Mike Muscala, who tied the game with two free throws with 30 seconds left in regulation, recorded his first career double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds as the Bison rallied from a double-figure deficit to win for the second straight game. Patrick Behan scored 14 points on 6-for-8 shooting, and point guard Darryl Shazier had two critical defensive plays in the closing seconds of both regulation and overtime while recording 13 points and seven assists with no turnovers in 43 minutes of action.

navy 81, bucknell 79 alumni hall annapolis, md. • feb. 5, 2010

Blizzard conditions outside Alumni Hall limited the crowd to only a few hundred loyal fans, but inside the arena Bucknell and Navy were red-hot for long stretches of time, and in the end the Midshipmen pulled out their second two-point win over the Bison this season, 81-79. Romeo Garcia scored 20 points and O.J. Avworo had 17 points and 10 assists for Navy, while G.W. Boon and Bryson Johnson led five Bucknell players in double figures with 16 points apiece. The two teams combined for 24 3-pointers — 13 by Navy and 11 by the Bison — but ultimately it was the Midshipmen finding the key stops down the stretch. Navy hit 15 3-pointers in a 100-91 shootout win over Colgate in its most recent outing, and the Midshipmen showed off their firepower again in this one. They hit four 3-pointers in the first 8:15, the last by Jordan Sugars giving them a 23-12 lead. Bucknell had a 19-3 run later in the half to take the lead back.

Mike Muscala scored 14 points in the first 8:26 of the game and then gave way to Joe Willman, Patrick Behan and the rest of his teammates as Bucknell posted a 73-59 win over American at Bender Arena. Willman scored a careerhigh 15 points, Bryson Johnson added 14 and Behan 13 for the Bison, who swept the season series from American. While the Bison had a balanced attack offensively, a major key was holding 20-point-a-game scorer Vlad Moldoveanu to a season-low two points on 1-for-7 shooting. Nick Hendra had 19 off the bench for the Eagles, but only five in the second half. A month earlier against American Bucknell committed only one turnover, a school record, and this time out the Bison turned it over only three times.

bucknell 68, holy cross 63 sojka pavilion lewisburg, Pa. • feb. 14, 2010

Bucknell junior point guard Darryl Shazier scored 20 of his career-high 27 points in the first half, helping the Bison to their fifth win in the last six games, 68-63 over Holy Cross before 3,284 fans and a CBS College Sports television audience. Joe Willman and Bryan Cohen added 11 points each to help Bucknell remain just one game behind first-place Lehigh in the Patriot League standings. Bucknell played some of its best basketball of the season in building up a 20-point lead with 8:24 to play. But the Bison made only one field goal the rest of the way, and a handful of missed free throws helped the Crusaders rally back within five in the final minute before the clock ran out on them. Devin Brown scored 19 points and Mike Cavataio added 17 for Holy Cross. Shazier was the story early on for the Bison, as he made his first six shots of the day, including four from 3-point range. The Bison faced an early 13-9 deficit, but Shazier scored 11 points in an 18-5 run that gave them the lead for good. He banked in a transition jumper for the only lead change of the day, and later he made a pair of NBA-range threes.

bucknell 78, lafayette 67 sojka pavilion lewisburg, pa. • feb. 17, 2010

Mike Muscala set career highs with 23 points and 11 rebounds, and Joe Willman scored his team’s first 10 points of the night and finished with 14, leading Bucknell to a workmanlike 78-67 victory over Lafayette at Sojka Pavilion. The Bison never trailed in the game and produced their sixth win in the last seven contests. Along with Willman, G.W.

THE SHOT!

In 2005, Bucknell captured its very first Patriot League championship by defeating Holy Cross on its home floor, 61-57. For the Bison, the postseason fun didn’t end at the Hart Center. The following Sunday evening, fans packed an on-campus auditorium for the NCAA Tournament Selection Show, eagerly awaiting word on Bucknell’s “Big Dance” destination. Soon they learned that the 14th-seeded Bison would be headed to the Ford Center in Oklahoma City to face the No. 3 seed — the mighty Kansas Jayhawks. The excitement quickly turned to reality, considering Kansas had been ranked No. 1 in the nation for most of the year (and were still ranked first in the RPI), and the Jayhawks had already been to 33 NCAA Tournaments and 12 Final Fours. Kansas’ hallowed history hardly intimidated the Bison, however, as Kevin Bettencourt’s four-point play in the opening moments got them going, and the contest would soon develop into an “Instant Classic.” Bucknell led for most of the first half, and by as many as seven points, before Kansas closed the half on a 10-0 run to take a 31-28 lead to the locker room. There were five lead changes and four ties over the first 12 minutes of the second half, and the Bison seemingly had the game in hand when Abe Badmus stroked two free throws to put Bucknell up 62-57 with 1:22 to play. But Kansas quickly rallied for a 63-62 lead behind six straight free throws, the last two by Keith Langford with 25 seconds left. The Bison were hardly done, though, as Chris McNaughton spun into the paint and rattled in a short jump-hook over All-American Wayne Simien with 10.5 seconds left (see photo at left). When Simien’s 15-foot jumper at the buzzer drew only iron, a sea of orange jerseys flooded the Ford Center hardwood. Not only did the 64-63 victory snatch the attention of the nation, but it was the historic first NCAA Tournament win for Bucknell and the Patriot League. Two days later the Bison had to somehow put the Kansas victory in the rear view mirror and take on a very talented Wisconsin team that had captured the Big Ten regular-season title. And it was a very game effort, indeed. Bucknell shook off an early 13-point deficit and rallied to take the lead as late as the nine-minute mark of the second half. But the Badgers had too much down the stretch and escaped with a 71-62 victory, despite an eye-popping 23-point showing from McNaughton, who made 10 of 14 shots from the field going toe-to-toe with First Team All-Big Ten selection Mike Wilkinson. A true “Cinderella Story,” the Bison for a few days in March captured the imaginations of the sporting world, both for their inspired play on the floor and their poise, composure and sportsmanship off it. A fairy tale, indeed.


Bucknell made a return trip to the NCAA Tournament in 2006, but this time the scenario was a bit different. In 2005 the Bison were seeded 14th, and to many they were extreme underdogs going into the Kansas game. This time, however, Bucknell came into the tournament as a No. 9 seed — the highest ever for a Patriot League team — and there would be no more sneaking up on anyone. That didn’t mean that Bucknell’s first-round opponent was any pushover. Hardly. The Bison drew Southeastern Conference juggernaut Arkansas, powered by eventual NBA lottery pick Ronnie Brewer. Making things even tougher was that the game was played in Dallas, just a short drive from Fayetteville. In fact, the Razorbacks had won 19 straight games in Dallas, where they maintain their largest alumni base. Several hundred orange-clad Bison fans made the trek to the posh American Airlines Center, making for a spirited atmosphere. And for the second year in a row, the “Sojka Psychos” had to make plans for a long weekend. The gritty, battle-tested Bucknell squad used some lights-out 3-point shooting and its typical stingy defense to outlast the Hogs 59-55. Charles Lee equaled his career high with 24 points and fellow senior co-captain Kevin Bettencourt knocked down five 3-pointers and scored 18 points for the Bison. While Lee and Bettencourt played obvious starring roles, it was junior point guard Abe Badmus and junior reserve forward Donald Brown who came up big down the stretch. Badmus, who did not attempt a single field goal all day yet finished with seven assists and only two turnovers in 34 minutes, knocked down two monumental free throws with seven seconds left to stretch a two-point lead to four. Brown came down with two critical late rebounds, and with the game tied at 55-55 with just over a minute to play, he just beat a 10-second backcourt violation, alertly finding Lee open under the basket for the go-ahead layup. While Brewer finished with 14 points in his final collegiate game, the Bison held Arkansas 19 points below its season scoring average. Bucknell made 11 3-pointers and committed only five second-half turnovers. In the second round, Bucknell ran into Memphis, the No. 1 seed in the Oakland Regional, in an attempt to make it to the Sweet 16 for the first time in school history. Things looked good early, as the Bison sprinted to an early 10-4 lead behind 3-pointers from Lee and Bettencourt, but the athletic Tigers responded with a 20-2 run and eventually won 72-56. Chris McNaughton led Bucknell with 15 points, while captains Bettencourt and Lee had 12 and 11, respectively, in their final game of their brilliant careers. While the college basketball world may not have been quite as stunned this time around, chapter two of this Bison fairy tale was just as sweet.


A year earlier, Bucknell was the “darling of the dance.” The prestigious private school with an enrollment of about 3,400 that stunned perennial power Kansas in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The victory made national headlines as the first-ever NCAA triumph for the Bison, or any Patriot League school for that matter. The team earned an ESPY award in the “Best Upset” category and spent the summer reliving the biggest win in the history of the program. As the 2005-06 campaign started, with virtually the entire roster returning intact, everyone wanted to know what Bucknell could do for an encore. And despite heaping expectations, both internal and external, all the Bison did was fashion their finest season yet. Even with a large “bulls-eye” on its back every night, Bucknell shattered the school victory record with a fancy 27-5 ledger, repeated as Patriot League champion and made a return trip to the second round of the NCAA Tournament after a thrilling 59-55 win over Arkansas. The Bison carried the sixth-best record in the nation — and the highest graduation rate (100%) — entering the NCAA Tournament. Among its impressive non-conference victories were road wins at then-No. 17 and eventual Big East champion Syracuse and DePaul, as well as a home victory over Atlantic-10 finalist Saint Joseph’s. The Bison really made their mark in Patriot League play, becoming the first team in the 16-year history of the conference to run the table, going a perfect 14-0. Three more double-digit wins in the Patriot League Tournament — capped by an impressive 74-59 win over Holy Cross — brought them a second straight league title. Then they earned a No. 9 seed in the NCAA Tournament, by far the highest in school and league history. Once in the field of 65, the Bison made sure their weekend in Dallas would be a long one. With co-captains Charles Lee and Kevin Bettencourt combining for nine 3-pointers and 42 points, Bucknell knocked off Southeastern Conference power Arkansas in the first round, validating the Kansas victory. In the round of 32, Bucknell ran into top-seeded Memphis, and the Conference USA champ wore down the Bison with its speed, strength and depth. Bucknell whittled a 19-point deficit down to nine in the second half, but the Tigers just had too much down the stretch, and the magical season that nobody wanted to end did just that on a rainy Sunday in Dallas. Of Bucknell’s five losses in 2005-06, three came at the hands of No. 1 seeds in the NCAA Tournament — Memphis, Duke and Villanova. Northern Iowa, which topped Bucknell in double overtime in an ESPN BracketBusters classic, earned an at-large bid out of the highly respected Missouri Valley Conference and was also nationally ranked at times during the season. Speaking of national rankings, in 2005-06 Bucknell also achieved its first-ever listing in a national poll. On Feb. 13 the Bison were ranked 24th in both the Associated Press Poll and the ESPN/USA TODAY Coaches’ Poll. Bucknell was also ranked 25th in the final Coaches’ Poll of the season. While not without star power, Bucknell’s greatest asset was its depth and its unselfish team play, particularly on defense. Armed with a tricky matchup zone defense, the Bison entered the NCAA Tournament ranked second nationally in scoring defense (55.3). In 32 games in 2005-06 they allowed 60 or more points only nine times and 70 or more only five times, while on nine occasions they kept teams under 50.


It started with a 74-52 win at Navy on Jan. 7 and ended with a 74-59 victory over Holy Cross in the Patriot League championship game at Sojka Pavilion. A perfect record, something that had never been done before in the 16-year history of the Patriot League. An unprecedented 14-0 regular-season mark and three more wins in the tournament gave the Bison 17 straight conference triumphs in 2006. Those 17 victories came in all shapes and sizes. There were lopsided wins — two by 30 or more points, and four by 20 or more — and there were some close calls, most notably in Worcester, Mass., where the Bison miraculously rallied from 15 down with 16 minutes to play to win 57-52. When Bucknell topped Army 70-47 on Senior Night at Sojka Pavilion in the regular-season finale, the Orange & Blue became the first team to run the table in Patriot League play. Previously, six teams had finished with one loss, including Bucknell in 1993 (13-1). Additionally, the Bison became the 200th Division I team in NCAA history to go unbeaten in their conference, and the 90th to do so with at least 14 wins. Bucknell joined Gonzaga (14-0 in the West Coast Conference) and George Washington (16-0 in the Atlantic 10) as the only teams in the country to finish unbeaten in its league in 2005-06. As the No. 1 seed, the Bison earned the right to play at home throughout the Patriot League Tournament, no small factor since they hadn’t lost to a league foe at Sojka Pavilion in four years. With large, partisan crowds at their backs, the Bison outlasted Army, 59-47, in the first round and American, 64-50, in the semifinals. That set up a rematch with No. 2 seed Holy Cross in the championship game. The previous year the seeds were reversed, and Bucknell won the title on the Crusaders’ home floor. With ESPN2 cameras in place, Holy Cross came out with revenge on its mind and trailed by only four at the half. But senior captains Kevin Bettencourt and Charles Lee put the Bison on their backs, hitting one critical shot after another, including nine 3-pointers between them, and Bucknell pulled away with a crushing 15-2 run. At the eight-minute mark the Bison had a commanding 60-44 lead, and soon after most of the crowd of 4,110 was dancing on the floor and the Sojka Pavilion nets were cut down for the first time. Following the game Lee was named Patriot League Tournament MVP, making him the first repeat winner of the award in league history. Lee registered 16 points, seven rebounds, four steals and three assists in the championship game, and he logged 43 points in the three tournament games. Bettencourt, who hit six 3-pointers and scored 23 points in the title contest, and center Chris McNaughton were also named to the all-tournament team. Donald Brown also had a magnificent tournament, capped by a 14-point, fiverebound performance against Holy Cross.


Bucknell entered the 2006-07 campaign coming off the winningest season in program history, and even though the Bison graduated two of their all-time greats in Kevin Bettencourt and Charles Lee, expectations were still high heading into the season. It was a tough start, with heartbreaking overtime losses to Wake Forest at home and Penn State on the road contributing to a frustrating 0-4 start. Things turned around quickly, however, and a 15-point win at Yale kicked off a 5-1 stretch that also included the two most impressive non-conference wins of the year: a 60-57 victory over reigning Final Four participant George Mason at the BB&T Classic and a terrific 68-67 victory at Atlantic 10 power Xavier. The Bison opened Patriot League play with home wins over Navy and American, stretching their winning streak against conference foes to 23. The run ended on Jan. 12 at Holy Cross, but it would be nearly two months before Bucknell tasted defeat again. A hard-fought road win at Lafayette ignited a 14-game winning streak, the longest in-season streak in school history. A three-point home win over Holy Cross in the rematch at Sojka Pavilion highlighted the run. A year after posting an unprecedented 14-0 Patriot League record, the Bison went 13-1 and tied for the PL regular-season title with Holy Cross. The Crusaders were awarded the No. 1 seed and pivotal home-court advantage in the Patriot League Tournament based on the league’s final tiebreaker, the RPI. Bucknell opened postseason play at home with victories over Navy and Army by an average margin of 20 points. That set the stage for a third straight Bucknell-Holy Cross showdown for the Patriot League title. Bucknell won at the Hart Center in 2005 and at Sojka Pavilion in 2006, but this time it was the Crusaders who prevailed, 74-66. Seven busloads of orange-clad Bison fans invaded Worcester, Mass., and watched their team erase all of a 19-point second-half deficit, but Holy Cross had enough down the stretch. Despite 22 victories and the PL regular-season co-championship, Bucknell was not selected for an atlarge berth to either the NCAA Tournament or NIT. That brought an end to the brilliant careers of Abe Badmus, Donald Brown and Chris McNaughton, who graduated as the program’s all-time winningest senior class with 87 victories. McNaughton, who ranked sixth on Bucknell’s career scoring list (second among centers), earned both First Team All-Patriot League and Patriot League Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors for the third year in a row. Brown, despite missing seven games with a broken hand near the end of a terrific senior season, earned Second Team honors.

Abe Badmus (5), Chris McNaughton (32) and Donald Brown (4): Bucknell’s winningest senior class.

(Clockwise from top): Rob Thomas, Justin Castleberry, Stephen Tyree and Patrick Behan all emerged as key players for the Bison in 2006-07.

bucknell’s retired jerseys On Saturday, Feb. 25, 2006, former Bucknell basketball stars Hal Danzig and Al Leslie became the first two members of the men’s program to have their jerseys retired. The ceremony took place at halftime of Bucknell’s men’s basketball game against Army. Danzig and Leslie are both members of the Bucknell Athletics Hall of Fame, and they are widely considered the program’s best players of their respective eras and two of the greatest in the history of Bison basketball. Leslie’s No. 22 jersey and Danzig’s No. 44 uniform are now permanently hung on the wall of Sojka Pavilion’s East Concourse.

#44 hal danzig Harold M. “Hal” Danzig of the Class of 1959 was one of the first true basketball superstars to play at Bucknell. A two-time All-East selection and an Honorable Mention All-American as a senior, Danzig was the starting center on three of Bucknell’s all-time great teams, and he holds school rebounding records that many consider to be unbreakable. When Danzig joined the Bucknell varsity squad in 1956-57, the Bison had won 16 games in a season only once in their history. They collected that exact number of wins in each of his three varsity seasons, amassing a 48-23 overall record. Nicknamed “Moose,” Danzig was the team’s leading scorer all three years and totalled 1,163 career points. At the time, that was the second-highest point total in school history, only 20 off the record held then by Joe Gallagher. As a junior he compiled what was then a school-record 426 points. But Danzig is best known today for his extraordinary rebounding totals. He hauled in 1,134 rebounds in three seasons. More than 45 years later, no Bison player has come within 148 rebounds of that impressive total. He increased his yearly rebounding average each season, from 15.0 to 16.1 to a whopping 16.8 rebounds per game. His career rebounding average of 15.97 per game is staggering. Co-captain of the 1958-59 Bucknell team, Danzig was named to the ECAC All-East and Associated Press All-Pennsylvania teams for two consecutive years and was on the All-Middle Atlantic Conference University Division first team and Palestra All-Opponent second team as a senior. The 6’6”, 230-pounder received Honorable Mention United Press International (UPI) All-America Honors in 1959, and he was selected to participate in two senior all-star games. Danzig was inducted into the Bucknell Athletics Hall of Fame as a member of its fifth class in 1983. Danzig came to Bucknell from East High School in Rochester, New York. His son, Carl, later served as an assistant coach at Bucknell under both Charlie Woollum and Pat Flannery.

#22 al leslie Albert V. Leslie is widely considered Bucknell’s greatest men’s basketball player. A Baltimore native and graduate of the McDonogh School, Leslie was a prodigious scorer during his four years with the Orange & Blue, despite being lightly recruited out of high school as a 6’3” center. At Bucknell he played guard and some small forward, and he shattered school records for points in a game (45), season (564) and career (1,973), records that still stood in the history books at the time of his jersey retirement in 2006. A 1981 Bucknell graduate, Leslie was selected by the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the NBA Draft and was the team’s last cut before the start of the regular season. He later played briefly for the Rochester Zeniths of the Continental Basketball Association. Leslie, who was the first Bison player to be taken in the NBA Draft, later returned to Bucknell as an assistant coach for two seasons. Leslie led the Bison to school victory records in his sophomore (18-7) and junior (20-7) years, as well as two consecutive East Coast Conference Western Section titles. He was a three-time All-ECC selection, and in 1980 he was an all-district pick by the U.S. Basketball Writers’ Association. A year later Leslie earned All-East plaudits, and he won the Kribbs Award as team MVP three straight years. His season total of 564 points in 1979-80 shattered a school record that had stood since the 1960-61 season. His 20.9 scoring average was second-best in school history, and in January of his junior year Leslie poured in a record 45 points in a 105-89 victory over American University. As a senior, Leslie tallied 537 points and had another 40-point game (41) against West Chester. He finished his career with an 18.1 scoring average, thirdbest in Bison annals. He started the final 105 games of his career and scored in double figures in all but 11 of them. Called “the finest player ever to wear a Bucknell basketball uniform” by his head coach, Charlie Woollum, Leslie was inducted into the Bucknell Athletics Hall of Fame in 1986.

Bucknell Athletics Hall of Fame

J.R. Holden ‘98 was a first-ballot Hall of Fame inductee in 2008. The Bucknell Athletics Hall of Fame, established in 1979 to honor the very best in the history of Bucknell athletics, welcomed six new members this fall when the Class of 2010 was inducted during ceremonies on Homecoming Weekend. This year’s induction brings to 217 the number of outstanding student-athletes, coaches, administrators and friends of Bucknell whose contributions to Bison athletics are forever preserved in the Hall. Hall of Fame plaques are displayed on the second floor of Gerhard Fieldhouse. Among the members of the 2008 Hall of Fame Class was the 45th and most recent member of the Bucknell basketball family to be inducted: J.R. Holden ’98. Holden has gained fame in recent years for his heroic exploits with CSKA Moscow and the Russian National Team, particularly after he hit the game-winning shot in the championship game of the 2007 European Championship, giving Russia a spot in the 2008 Olympics. But his Bucknell career was also noteworthy, as he transformed from a lightly recruited guard into a two-time First Team All-Patriot League selection. A two-time team MVP, Holden scored 1,327 career points, which ranked ninth in program history when he graduated. He is one of only three players in school history with 1,000 points and 300 assists. His best year came as a senior, when he led the team in 11 statistical categories, including scoring (18.2), assists (4.1) and steals (1.5), and he led the Patriot League in assists and ranked second in scoring that year. Bill Courtney, a 2007 inductee, was one of the top scorers in program history. As a junior he set the school single-season scoring record with 619 points — a record that still stands — and he also led the team in assists that season. His 1,499 career points ranked fifth in school history at the time of his graduation and now ranks eighth. A First Team All-Patriot League selection in 1991 and 1992, Courtney’s 14.6 points-per-game average ranks 10th in program history. Patrick King, one of the more inspiring student-athletes to be enshrined in the Hall, was inducted in 2006. A walk-on to the Bison men’s basketball squad, King made his way through the junior varsity ranks, eventually earned a starting forward position and as a senior was named Patriot League Player of the Year after averaging 20.3 points per game. An Academic All-America selection in 1992, King is the school and Patriot League-record holder for field-goal percentage in

a season (.670 in 1990-91) and career (.638). In 2005 Harvey Carter ‘73 and Mike Bright ‘93 were inducted. Carter was a three-year starter and two year captain of the Bison basketball team. He was a First Team All-Middle Atlantic Conference selection as a senior in 1972-73, when he led the team in scoring at 14.2 points per game under coach Jim Valvano. He logged 1,013 points and 783 rebounds in his career, making him one of only 13 players in school history to collect 1,000 points and 500 rebounds. Bright was a top player on Bucknell’s outstanding teams of the early 1990s. He was the Patriot League Player of the Year as a senior in 1993, when he led the Bison to a 23-6 record and the league’s regular-season title. Outstanding in all phases of the game, Bright is Bucknell’s No. 3 all-time scorer with 1,670 points, trailing only fellow Hall of Famers Al Leslie (1,973) and Bob Barry (1,809). Mike Joseph, a member of the Class of 1990, was a 2003 Hall of Fame inductee. Joseph was a three-year starter and a member of two East Coast Conference championship squads that advanced to the NCAA Tournament. He was a two-time All-ECC selection and set nine Bucknell records, including the marks for career assists, free throws, free-throw percentage and 3-point percentage. Now Bucknell’s No. 6 all-time scorer, Joseph’s .884 career free-throw percentage ranks 14th in NCAA history. Former basketball stars Ted Aceto and Mike Butts, both of the Bucknell Class of 1989 were members of the Hall of Fame Class of 2000. Aceto lettered four times in basketball and three times in baseball (he missed his junior year with an injury). He scored 1,118 points in his career on the hardwood, and helped the Bison earn their only two trips ever to the NCAA Tournament in 1987 and 1989. On the diamond, he was a first team all-conference shortstop in 1989 when he led the league and ranked 12th in the nation with a .444 average. His .408 career batting average still stands as a Bucknell record. Following graduation, he played two years in the New York Mets system. Butts was the leading scorer on both the 1987 and 1989 NCAA men’s basketball teams for the Bison. He is one of just two players in Bucknell history with over 1,300 (1,355) points and 850 (860) rebounds in a career. He continues to hold game, season and career blocked shot records for the Orange and Blue, and was a two-time All-ECC First Team honoree. As a senior, he was honorable mention All-East and honorable mention All-America. In addition, he excelled in the classroom and was a two-time Academic All-America selection. Bill Gravely ’77, a former track and field standout and basketball player, was inducted in 1998. Gravely, who still holds indoor and outdoor triple jump records, played basketball for three seasons, averaging 5.8 points and 5.1 rebounds in his career. In 1997, former Bison basketball players Ellis Harley ’59 and Pete Fry ’32 were inducted into the Hall. Harley starred in both basketball and baseball, and at the time of his graduation, ranked fifth in school history with 757 career points. He co-captained the Bison as a junior and senior, and played on three straight teams that won 16 games. Harley has been a Lewisburg resident for more than 30 years, served as Bucknell’s associate vice president for finance until his recent retirement. Fry, who died in April 1997, played four sports at Bucknell. He was a leading scorer on the hardwood for the Orange and Blue, a back and end with the football team, a star pitcher and outfielder with the baseball team, and a member of the track and field program.

Longtime Bucknell coach Charlie Woollum was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1995. Woollum coached from 1975-94 and had a 19-year record of 318-221. That victory total is higher than that of any other coach in any one sport in Bucknell’s intercollegiate athletic history. Woollum recently retired after serving six seasons as head coach at William & Mary. Alvin F. “Doggie” Julian is another member of the Hall of Fame. Julian is also a member of the National Basketball Hall of Fame. In addition to a distinguished career as an athlete at Bucknell, Julian was a highly successful coach at Muhlenberg, Holy Cross and Dartmouth, and his 1947 Holy Cross team, led by Bob Cousy and George Kaftan, won the NCAA title. Other members of the Bucknell Hall of Fame include Mal Musser ’18, who played and coached at Bucknell and is the only basketball coach other than Woollum and Pat Flannery to win more than 100 games with the Bison; George Haines ’43, Joe Gallagher ’52, Joe Steiner ’62, Jim Wherry ’70, Bob Barry ’80 and Al Leslie ’81, all of whom held the school scoring record when they graduated; Hal Danzig ’59, the career rebounding leader; and John Anderson 1905, who scored 80 points in a single game. Perhaps the most famous member of the Hall of Fame is Christy Mathewson, an outstanding athlete at Bucknell who is also a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.

The Plan for Bucknell Bucknell is a unique national university where liberal arts and professional programs complement each other, where 3,400 full-time students are educated for a lifetime of critical thinking and strong leadership. For more than 160 years, the University has remained true to its fundamental purpose: to educate and prepare students for lives that make a difference and have a positive impact on the world. In keeping with that purpose, the University has developed The Plan for Bucknell, which includes its collective vision — “To provide students with the premier undergraduate experience in American higher education.” Students helped shape this vision because of their confidence in the University. The Plan comprises five strategies: Strengthen the Academic Core aims to ensure that a Bucknell education is challenging and engaging, with openness to new ideas and a culture of innovation; Deepen the Residential Learning Experience will provide a residential learning and living experience that complements the academic program, integrates the athletics and recreation program and promotes personal growth and development and civic and ethical responsibility; Enhance Diversity is a commitment to diversity in all its forms within a civil and supportive environment of open exchange to prepare Bucknell graduates to live and work in a globally integrated and intercultural world; Build Bridges will bring the world to Bucknell — through visiting scholars and sports teams, international students and alumni, guest speakers, international focus semesters, and electronic communications — and bring Bucknell to the world through strategic partnerships and community engagement activities as well as opportunities for off-campus study and faculty research; Secure Our Financial Future will secure resources necessary to engage new opportunities, lessen dependence on tuition, and ensure our financial future. The Plan for Bucknell was unanimously approved by the Board of Trustees on April 29, 2006, having previously been approved by the students and faculty. We have begun implementing it and are determined to make it a reality over the next decade.

ATHLETICS MISSION STATEMENT The Department of Athletics and Recreation strives to set the standard of excellence for intercollegiate and intramural programs in higher education, thereby advancing and drawing attention to the mission, core values, and educational goals of Bucknell University. The Department believes that studentathletes’ academic programs must be their first priority. It is therefore committed to maintaining Bucknell’s high national ranking for student-athletes’ graduation rates and for producing Academic All-Americans, and to continued leadership of the Patriot League in Academic Honor Roll nominations, based on grade-point averages. The coaches’ and staff’s paramount responsibility is maintaining academic priorities and supporting student-athletes’ education, even while providing the rigorous and serious NCAA Division I athletic opportunities Bucknell student-athletes seek. Further, the Department promotes the personal growth of student-athletes and the general student body by encouraging personal health, development, and balance among intellectual, social, civic, and physical pursuits; by celebrating challenge and com-

petition; and by preparing participants for service and leadership in the world. Coaches and staff direct a rich array of athletic programs and recreational opportunities aimed at increasing student engagement, as well as strengthening character, healthy living, teamwork, sportsmanship, and spirit. In creating shared experiences for students, faculty, and staff, as well as alumni, family, and friends, the Department’s programs add substantially to Bucknell’s sense of community and foster life-long relationships with Bucknell. The Department embraces the University’s decision to compete at the highest extramural

level, in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Division I membership is valuable not only because this level of competition maximally challenges student-athletes, but also because it signals clearly Bucknell’s high standards and seriousness of purpose in all extracurricular endeavors and it helps position Bucknell apart from other National Liberal Arts Colleges. Likewise, the competitive success the Department seeks, measured in part by consistent contention for the Patriot League Presidents’ Cup, reflects positively upon Bucknell’s student-athletes and the University alike, and it brings distinction and national recognition to Bucknell. A student-centered operation, the Department is committed to providing equitable opportunities to women and men, as well as members of minority and majority groups of all kinds. The Department subscribes to, and complies with, all principles and regulations of the Patriot League, the Eastern College Athletic Conference, and the NCAA. The department is proud that so many of today’s exemplary Bison scholar-athletes will be tomorrow’s outstanding leaders.

T

he Bucknell University Department of Athletics and Recreation prides itself on setting the standard of excellence when it comes to success both on the playing fields and in the classroom. With 16 Patriot League Presidents’ Cups in 20 years, national leadership in graduation rates, 118 ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans in 38 years and 118 Patriot League Scholar-Athletes in 20 years, Bucknell is clearly at the head of the class in terms of upholding the scholar-athlete model. The 2003 addition of the Kenneth G. Langone Athletics and Recreation Center, one of the finest collegiate athletics and recreation venues of its kind, ensures the continuation of that success. The facility enhances each of Bucknell’s 27 varsity programs and greatly expands the scope of its growing intramural and recreational sports offerings. A visually appealing structure located along Moore Avenue on the “downhill” side of campus, the Langone Athletics and Recreation Center was designed to reach out to all members of the campus community, including the student body, varsity student-athletes, faculty, staff and alumni. Three primary venues lie within the facility: the Arthur D. Kinney Jr. Natatorium, the 4,000-seat Gary A. Sojka Pavilion and the Krebs Family Fitness Center. Other features include a new location for the Bucknell Athletics Hall of Fame, a display of Bucknell’s Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, a sports medicine and athletic training suite, classrooms, modern offices for coaches and staff

Fields Complex, which encompasses Depew Field (baseball), Varsity Softball Field and the adjoining Graham Field (Astroturf for field hockey and women’s lacrosse) and Emmitt Field (natural grass for soccer) venues that now feature a brand new stadium/press box facility. A closer look behind the walls of the Kenneth G. Langone Athletics and Recreation Center:

Ramer Schaffner Memorial Hall

Ramer Schaffner Memorial Hall greets guests as they enter the Langone Athletics and Recreation Center. The entry hall features the busts of 2nd Lt. George H. Ramer and 1st Lt. Dwite H. Schaffner, Bucknell’s Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, and provides access to Gerhard Fieldhouse and the Krebs Family Fitness Center on the ground level. Guests may proceed to the second level to enter Davis Gym, administrative offices and the Hall of Fame, which celebrates Bucknell’s Patriot League championships and other notable feats.

Krebs Fitness Center

and increased locker room space for varsity and recreational athletes. The facility is named in honor of Ken Langone, a 1957 Bucknell graduate who, along with his wife Elaine, pledged $11 million toward the center’s construction. Langone was a member of the university Board of Trustees from 1980 to 1996. One of the special qualities of the Langone Athletics and Recreation Center is the manner in which it supplements the pre-existing facilities. The new construction surrounds Gerhard Fieldhouse and historic Davis Gymnasium, which has been restored as a competition venue for the Bison volleyball and wrestling teams, as well as intramural, recreation and other varsity practice activities. As Bucknell continues to strive toward its mission of setting the standard of excellence in college athletics, the Langone Athletics and Recreation Center is the centerpiece in an already impressive cache of athletics facilities that includes the 13,100-seat Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium and its FieldTurf and 8-lane track surface; the scenic Bucknell Golf Club; and the spacious West

Promoting lifetime wellness, the Krebs Family Fitness Center contains state-of-the-art cardiovascular and strength conditioning equipment. The 16,000-square-foot center includes over 175 positions for equipment within three distinct areas. The first-level cardiovascular and pin-select equipment is open for student, faculty and staff use at all times. Directly above, the mezzanine also contains cardio equipment, with scenic views of the campus and natatorium. The third area, the Berger Family Weight Room, sits on the former site of Freas-Rooke Pool, and is used for instructional free-weight training and varsity workouts. The facility received all new weightlifting equipment in the summer of 2010.

swimming to occur simultaneously. Natatorium amenities include seating for 500 spectators, restrooms, separated varsity and visiting team locker rooms, a poolside classroom, sauna, steam room and concession stands. Already Kinney Natatorium has played host to several major events, most notably the 2005 NCAA Men’s Water Polo Championship. The facility has also served as host of the 2003, 2005 and 2007 Patriot League Swimming and Diving Championships, the 2004 Eastern Women’s Water Polo Championship and an exhibition game against the U.S. women’s water polo national team, drawing rave reviews at each. Beginning in the spring of 2005, the Pennsylvania state swimming championships moved to Kinney Natatorium. The facility has proven to be quite a home pool advantage for Bucknell, which became the first institution in league history to capture both the men’s and women’s swimming and diving championships in the same season in 2003. A total of 20 meet records and 16 league marks fell that weekend.

Sojka Pavilion

Sojka Pavilion provides the Bison men’s and women’s basketball programs with one of the finest arenas in the East. A “first-class” venue capable of seating 4,000 spectators for sporting and other campus events, the pavilion has walk-down access to all seats and unobstructed views of the playing surface or concert stage for all spectators. The seating bowl features approximately 1,500 fixed seats and 2,500 retractable seats, enabling an “expandable” open floor area with sufficient space for three basketball courts for recreational activities and varsity practices. The spacious upperlevel concourse includes two concession areas, restrooms, handicapped seating and several suites that overlook the floor. Behind the scenes, on the floor level, Sojka Pavilion provides a green room for performance acts and other functions, a catering kitchen for special events, ticket windows, locker room space for home and visiting teams and officials, and a loading dock capable of accommodating team buses and production trucks for televised events. Dozens of nationally televised basketball games have been aired from Sojka Pavilion, including the ESPN2 broadcast of the 2006 Patriot League championship game and an ESPN360 airing of the Bucknell-Villanova men’s game that drew a school-record crowd of 4,433.

Kinney Natatorium

Kinney Natatorium features a 50-meter by 25-yard Olympic class pool, which accommodates four varsity programs — men’s and women’s swimming and diving and men’s and women’s water polo — while enhancing the recreational aquatics opportunities for the Bucknell community. The pool itself features two moveable bulkheads, allowing for multiple team practices and recreational

Athletics Facilities Whether it is the varsity student-athlete, the intramurals participant or the fitness buff looking for a nice workout, members of the Bucknell community benefit from a wide array of first-class athletics facilities. The completion of the Kenneth Langone Athletics & Recreation Center in 2003 highlighted a facilities boon at Bucknell. Sojka Pavilion, Kinney Natatorium and the Krebs Family Fitness Center are the centerpieces of the sparkling new indoor facility, nicely complementing the renovated Davis Gym and Gerhard Fieldhouse, all of which lie under the same roof. Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium is the largest of the outdoor facilities, with 13,100 seats surrounding the FieldTurf playing surface and recently resurfaced 8-lane track. The West Fields complex also has a new look with the recent installation of Graham Field, featuring an AstroTurf surface for field hockey and women’s lacrosse, and its neighboring Emmitt Field, a five-year-old natural-grass soccer pitch constructed with a modern drainage system. Holmes Stadium, completed in 2007, is an impressive covered grandstand featuring all chair-back seating, along with the accompanying support facilities (locker rooms, athletic training room, press box, concession/merchandise stand, etc.) that service both fields. The next phase of the West Fields improvement project includes significant upgrades for baseball and softball. Both diamonds recently received new playing surfaces. FieldTurf at Depew Field (baseball) was laid in time for the start of the 2010 season, while new sod was recently installed in the outfield of the Varsity Softball Field. Both facilities also now have new dugouts, fencing and scoreboards, as well a brick entry plaza, and fundraising continues for the final phase: new grandstands and press boxes for both venues. Also located on the western end of campus are numerous grass fields for intramurals and recreation, as well as Bucknell’s own highly regarded 18-hole golf course, the Bucknell Golf Club. Currently under construction on the BGC property is a new indoor/outdoor Instructional Golf Facility, which will provide a year-round training center for the Bison golf teams. The Bison rowing team has its own Boathouse located about 10 miles south of campus, along the scenic Susquehanna River. That is the only athletics facility that is not located within a short walk from the center of campus. The quality and location of these venues makes Bucknell one of the most sports-friendly campuses in the nation.

University Administration bucknell’s 17th PRESIDENT DR. john c. bravman John C. Bravman began his official duties as Bucknell University’s 17th president on July 1, 2010. He came to Bucknell from Stanford University, where he oversaw the undergraduate program as the Freeman-Thornton Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and served as dean of the Freshman-Sophomore Residential College, which he founded in 1999. As vice provost for undergraduate education, Bravman helped lead a curricular transformation that introduced new pedagogies, invigorated Stanford’s system of residential education, and created the Stanford Summer Engineering Academy for entering Stanford undergraduates from under-resourced school districts. As one of Stanford’s pre-eminent leaders, Dr. Bravman was a strong and visible presence on behalf of the university around the nation and the globe. A renowned scholar in the field of thin-film materials, he was the Bing Centennial Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and a professor of electrical engineering by courtesy of that department in recognition of his related achievements. He won almost every Stanford

teaching and advising award, including the Walter J. Gores Award, Stanford’s highest teaching honor, and the Kenneth M. Cuthbertson Award for Exceptional Contributions to Stanford. He is only the second person in Stanford’s history to receive both honors. Stanford also established the John C. Bravman Family Scholarship Fund, securing more than $3 million for scholarships in a few short weeks before Bravman completed his tenure there. Bravman received his bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees in materials science and engineering from Stanford. He is married to Wendelin Wright, who served as the Clare Boothe Luce Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Santa Clara University before joining the Bucknell faculty this past summer. Their first child, a boy, Cole Keating Bravman, was born April 8, 2010.

Athletics Administration John P. hardt

The Hardt File . . .

Director of athletics & RecreatIon At the helm of a proud and flourishing Bison athletics program is director of athletics and recreation John Hardt, who is now in his 11th year at Bucknell and his 25th year in athletics administration. Hardt administers a broad-based sports program with a proud and successful history. Since his arrival, Hardt has orchestrated one of the nation’s most assertive facilities overhauls, built and maintained relationships with major donors, restructured the athletics administration in order to help Bucknell stay ahead of the curve in the fast-paced world of Division I athletics and built upon Bucknell’s long-standing tradition of scholar-athlete excellence. Hardt is privileged to oversee a varsity athletics program that has long been at the head of the class in the Patriot League, both on the playing fields and in the classroom. From Presidents’ Cups to Academic All-Americans to the nation’s best graduation rate, Bison Athletics carries a proud heritage. While building on Bucknell’s athletic and academic excellence is paramount, Hardt has also incorporated progressive ideas in the area of external relations. Initiatives such as the Bison Magazine online video series, a new graphics identity package, an informative and visually appealing athletics Web site and a revamped Bison Club all serve to bring Bison Athletics into the homes of its supporters. Hardt reorganized the management structure of the department and implemented a sport management group, dividing the direct oversight of 27 men’s and women’s varsity programs among Hardt and four associate directors of athletics. During his productive tenure at Bucknell, Hardt has overseen nine consecutive years of growth in Bison Club donations, and he has seen the program benefit from several major gifts. While the Kenneth G. Langone Athletics and Recreation Center is the crown jewel of a successful university fundraising campaign, other significant offerings include a $7.6 million donation from William Graham — one of the largest in university history — which was directed toward women’s athletics and the successful restoration of wrestling to varsity status. Graham Field, the new AstroTurf venue at the West Fields, was also a result of that gift. Other major gifts have included the funding of the FieldTurf playing surface and new lighting in Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium, the brand new Holmes Stadium grandstand/press box facility that supports both Graham Field and Emmitt Field, the ongoing upgrades to the baseball and softball facilities, as well as endowments for football, track and field, water polo and swimming and diving. While much has been achieved in the last 10 years, Hardt’s vision for Bison Athletics carries well into the future. Working with campus and department leadership, he has developed a long-range plan for Bucknell Athletics that meshes with the University’s strategic plan, entitled The Plan for Bucknell. Hardt’s plan

• PERSONAL Birthdate: May 24, 1962 Wife: The former Carole Bourgeacq of Arcachon, France Married: September 19, 1987 Children: Noah (21), Elodie (18), and Madeleine (16)

focuses on future facilities upgrades, places an emphasis on diversity and gender equity, and promises the continued commitment to a student-centered athletics and recreation program that adheres to the student-athlete ideal. Hardt, who received the Gen. Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award in March 2008 the All-American Football Foundation’s 91st Banquet of Champions, also remains very active in athletics governance at the national level. In 2006-07 he served as chair of the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Committee, and he recently joined the Division I Baseball Committee. Hardt began his tenure at Bucknell on February 15, 2000, after serving four years as associate director of athletics at Michigan State University. While there, Hardt supervised the sports medicine staff, strength and conditioning, equipment operations, computing and tech services and NCAA/Big Ten rules compliance. In addition, he handled legal and contractual issues for the department. Prior to his tenure at MSU, Hardt spent five years at Syracuse University as director of athletic compliance and four years with the NCAA’s national office as a compliance representative. A native Iowan, Hardt is a 1984 honors graduate of the University of Iowa, and he was a member of the Hawkeyes’ 1982 Rose Bowl football team. He later earned his law degree from Iowa and is a doctoral candidate in Iowa’s College of Education.

the voice of the bison: doug birdsong Doug Birdsong is in his 11th season as the “Voice of the Bison.” A 1987 Marshall University graduate who called play-by-play for college and high school athletics for 17 years before coming to Lewisburg, Birdsong was named Radio/TV Coordinator and Marketing Specialist at the University in July of 2000. In addition to calling the action for the Bison men’s basketball team, Birdsong is the play-by-play voice of the Bucknell football team, and he also broadcasts numerous events from many of Bucknell’s varsity programs. Birdsong has broadcast a number of NCAA Tournament contests during his tenure at Bucknell, and his call of the final seconds of the men’s basketball team’s 2005 upset of Kansas was repeated on a number of national outlets. He has also called NCAA action in women’s basketball, baseball, men’s lacrosse and men’s and women’s soccer. When Birdsong arrived at Bucknell he became just the second full-time “Voice of the Bison,” replacing Bob Behler, who held the position for more than 13 years before leaving to go to the University of Massachusetts. Birdsong came to Bucknell from AVC Communications in Cambridge, Ohio, where, as the Sports Director, he managed the playby-play crews on five radio stations for 11 years. He called play-by-play for Muskingum College football, men’s and women’s basketball, softball and volleyball, and also handled the same duties plus baseball for area high schools. Birdsong was also responsible for writing and producing 11 daily sportscasts focusing on the six area high schools and Muskingum College. Prior to his experience at AVC, Birdsong worked at WTCR in Huntington, W.Va., after

graduating from Marshall. While he was a student at Marshall, he worked for WMUL as its Sports Director and called football, basketball and baseball for the Thundering Herd. In addition, Birdsong produced and hosted a weekly one-hour sports talk show. He has won numerous awards, including citations from the Pennsylvania Association of Broadcasters for “Best Local Sporting Event Coverage” two years in a row. Birdsong has also won four Outstanding Sports Operation for Playby-Play citations from the Associated Press in Ohio, and two from the Associated Press in West Virginia. In 1999, he was chosen as the Eastern Ohio Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association Media Person of the Year.
