Canisius College basketball lost one of its all-time greats when Sports Hall of Famer Bob Kelly, Class of 1956 passed away suddenly Oct. 25, 2009. During his three years on the Canisius basketball team, Kelly was regarded as the team’s top defensive player. The 6-foot-1 guard out of Philadelphia averaged 8.6 points and 5.1 rebounds during his career. A captain during his senior season, Kelly scored 14 points in the Griffs’ epic four-overtime win over No. 2 North Carolina State in the 1956 NCAA Tournament.

Tom PARROTTA Head Coach
Fourth Season at Canisius Fordham ‘91 Since being named the 22nd head coach in Canisius College men’s basketball history on April 10, 2006, Tom Parrotta’s goals of changing and revitalizing the program’s winning tradition have not changed. Built on a foundation that stresses a team-first attitude and a commitment to winning without short cuts, Parrotta’s players and staff have embraced and taken ownership of these principles whole-heartedly, as they continued to build the framework in 2008-09. In this, his fourth season on the bench at Canisius, he returns a veteran team geared to climb with all five starters and the top six returning scorers and rebounders from last season. The 2008-09 Golden Griffins showed improvement in the final month of the season, posting a 4-2 record in the Blue and Gold’s final six contests, highlighted by a 74-68 win over Loyola in the first round of the 2009 MAAC Basketball Championship. Parrotta joins former head coach John Beilein as the only Griff mentor to lead the program to at least one postseason victory in his first three seasons as Canisius’ head coach. Entering his fourth season as the Golden Griffins’ head coach, Parrotta has recruited Frank Turner, the 2006-07 MAAC Co-Rookie of the Year and Greg Logins, who was one of three players in the MAAC to be named to the collegeinsider.com Freshman MidMajor All-America team after the 2007-08 season. During that year, he guided the sixth-youngest team at the Division I level to a first-round win at the MAAC Tournament, making Canisius the first No. 10 seed in league history to advance to the quarterfinal round. The 2008-09 season saw the program end a 20-game road losing streak and finished the year with five road wins, the most for the Griffs since 2003-04. Canisius also strung together threestraight wins in the month of February, the first time that had happened since the 2000-01 campaign. The Yonkers, N.Y. native has also placed emphasis on molding student-athletes into well-rounded citizens off the court as well. Active in both the classroom and the community, every senior that has played for Parrotta during his time at Canisius has 42

graduated from the school and two players, Bob Bevilacqua and Frank Turner, earned their undergraduate degrees prior to the start of the 2009-10 campaign.

Prior to his arrival to Canisius, Parrotta spent five years at Hofstra University, holding the position of associate head coach in his last season there, the 2005-06 campaign.

First Season at Canisius Dominican College ‘92 Known as an assistant coach that is not afraid to roll up his sleeves to help rebuild a program, Buffalo native Desmond Oliver is starting his 15th season as a Division I basketball coach and his first on Tom Parrotta’s staff. Prior to arriving at Canisius, Oliver spent the previous five seasons as an assistant coach at the University of Georgia. When Oliver joined Dennis Fleton’s staff at Georgia, the program was forced to move forward while dealing with NCAA sanctions and penalties, but Oliver and the staff were able to land quality players that helped the Bulldogs improve from just eight wins in 2004-05 to 19 wins and a postseason NIT bid in the 2006-07 campaign. In 2007-08, Georgia won the second SEC Tournament championship in program history and earned the program’s ninth appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Oliver was considered the point man behind recruiting Terrance Woodbury, who led the Bulldogs in scoring during UGA’s SEC Tournament run.

While at Rhode Island, Oliver played a key role in recruiting Dawan Robinson (2006 Atlantic 10 Player of the Year), Dustin Hellanga (considered on of the All-Atlantic 10’s best defenders three years in a row), Will Daniels (two-time All-Atlantic 10 honoree) and Scott Hazelton.

Through Oliver’s hard work, Rhode Island has built itself into one of the most consistent programs in the Atlantic 10, considered by many as one of the top mid-major conferences in the nation. Oliver joined with Baron at Rhode Island after the pair worked together for the 1999-2000 season at St. Bonaventure. That season, the Bonnies were picked near the bottom of the conference in the preseason before earning a postseason NIT trip at the end of the year. Before he called Olean, N.Y., home, he worked for two seasons at Cornell under head coach Scott Thompson. In his second year with the Big Red, Oliver helped build one of the top recruit-
ing classes in the Ivy League, highlighted by the signing of Western New York and Turner-Carroll High School star Ka’Ron Barnes. Barnes was named the 2004 Ivy League Player of the Year and ended his career among the topfive scorers all-time in Cornell’s long basketball history. In 1997, Oliver held the distinction of being one of the youngest fulltime assistant coaches in the Big 12 Conference when he worked under Tony Barone at Texas A&M. He joined Barone’s staff after just three years in Division I basketball, which started in 1994 at Niagara under head coach Jack Armstrong. In his first season with the Purple Eagles, Oliver served as an administrative assistant before being elevated to full-time status. Before he departed Niagara, Oliver was The Oliver File credited with recruiting Alvin Young and Demond Stewart Birthplace: Buffalo, N.Y. to Lewiston, N.Y.

4 Canisius guard Frank Turner became the 29th player in program history to score 1,000 career points with his lay-up with 26 seconds left to play in the Griffs’ win over Rider Jan. 15, at home. 4 He is the first Canisius player to reach the 1,000 point mark since former Griff Chuck Harris joined the exclusive club during the 2006-07 season. 4 The Atlantic City, N.J. native ended his junior season with 1,271 career points, which is the most points for a three-year player since former Griff and Canisius Hall of Famer Micheal Meeks went into his senior season with 1,340 career points.
Frank Turner scored a team-high 484 points during the 2008-09 season, the most for a Canisius player since Darren Fenn scored 528 points during the 1999-00 season.
HOT COLES
4 Canisius guard Frank Turner starts his final season in Blue and Gold with 434 career assists, which ranks fourth-best in school history. 4 He will start the 2009-10 campaign as just the third player in school history to score more than 1,000 career points, pull down 400-plus career rebounds and dish out 400 or more career assists.
4 Julius Coles ended his sophomore campaign ranked as the second leading scorer on Canisius’ roster with his 12.1 points per game scoring average. 4 Coles joined the starting lineup five games into the season. 4 The Harlem, N.Y. native helped give Canisius a 68-66 win over long-time rival St. Bonaventure when he hit a 3-pointer from the wing to give the Griffs their first win in the HSBC Arena since 2004-05.
MANY MINUTE MAN
GREG ON THE GLASS
TURNER’S HELPING HAND
4 Frank Turner led the MAAC in minutes per game average at 37.9 minutes per contest during the 2008-09 season. 4 The Atlantic City, N.J. native played 30-plus minutes 29 times last year and 78 times in his career. 4 In the team’s double overtime game against Iona Jan. 17, 2009, Turner played a career-high 47 minutes. He’s played in 40-plus minutes 12 times last season and 26 times in his career. 4 Turner’s 47 minutes played in that game against Iona are the most for a Canisius player since former Griff Kevin Downey played 49 minutes in a double overtime loss to Fairleigh Dickinson Dec. 2, 2005. 4 According to kenpom.com, Turner ranks seventh in the country in time spent of the floor having played in 93.8 percent of the team’s games this season.
4 Greg Logins led the Griffs with 7.0 rebounds per game last season, pulling down a total of 218 rebounds in 31 games played. 4 The Sodus, N.Y. native joins former Griffs Darren Fenn and Darnell Wilson as the only players since the 1998-99 season to record more than seven rebounds per game for the entire length of the season. 4 His 14 rebounds at Howard Dec. 1, was highlighted by his 12 offensive rebounds, which stands as the most for a Canisius player since 1987-88 (according to records available).
TOMAS’ BLOCK PARTY
4 Tomas Vazquez-Simmons finished the 2008-09 season with blocked shots, which ranked him
48
Canisius College
third in the MAAC and 69th in the nation in blocks per game average at 1.7 per outing. 4 He was credited with eight blocks in the team’s home loss to Manhattan Jan. 5, which set a new Koessler Athletic Center record for blocks in a game by a Griff. 4 He also set a new program record with six blocks in the Blue and Gold’s MAAC Tournament win over Loyola, when he closed out the contest with six blocked shots. 4 The Rochester, N.Y. native has led the team in blocks in each of his first two seasons in Blue and Gold and ended his sophomore season ranked second on the squad in rebounding average (5.5 per game) and 3-point field goals made (23).
ENDING A BAD STREAK
4 The Griffs’ 84-66 win over Rider at home Jan. 15, not only ended the Griffs’ four-game slide at the time, but it also put an end to the program’s 12-game losing streak to the Broncs. 4 Prior to that win in the Koessler Athletic Center, the Blue and Gold’s last win over Rider came March 2, 2003, an 84-74 Canisius victory in the KAC. 4 The Griffs are looking to end another streak against Rider - a road losing streak. Canisius has never beaten Rider in Lawrenceville, N.J., posting an
0-13 all-time record on the road in a series that dates back to Feb. 22, 1930.
BRACKET BEATING
4 Canisius improved to 3-1 all-time in the ESPN BracketBuster series with a 71-66 overtime road win at Bowling Green Feb. 21. 4 Junior Julius Coles picked up his first career double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds as the Blue and Gold won their first overtime game since Jan. 8, 2007. 4 Coles and fellow junior Greg Logins combined to score all nine of Canisius’ points in overtime.
MAAC MADNESS
4 The Griffs picked up their eighth MAAC Tournament win in the last 10 seasons when the Griffs beat Loyola in the first round. 4 Canisius was knocked out of the postseason event by eventual champion Siena in the quarterfinal round. The 2009 MAAC Tournament marked the 20th year of Canisius playing in the league’s postseason event, with the Griffs holding an all-time record of 21-19. 4 Head coach Tom Parrotta joins former Canisius bench boss John Beilein as the only coaches in the last 20 years to record wins in their first three MAAC Tournament appearances.

Department of Athletics What is a Griffin? The Griffin is a mythical creature of supposed gigantic size that has the head, forelegs and wings of an eagle and the hindquarters, tail and ears of a lion. They are well known for their speed, ability to fly and having eyes like an eagle as well as the strength and courage of a lion. Griffins have been known for centuries as symbols of strength and vigilance, have been called “The Hounds of Zeus” in Greek mythology and are said to have mastery of both the land and sky. They are thought to be from India, where the natives of the land made their talons and claws into drinking cups because the talon of a Griffin was said to detect poison in a liquid. Griffins would find gold in the mountains and line their nests with it and as a result, were forced to become great guardians of the nests to keep the hunters away. According to Charles A. Brady in Canisius College The First Hundred Years, “Though the problems of when and where the Griffin began his reign as King Herald of the Canisius College of Arms are not easily settled, the whence is simple to establish. Our Griffin flew to us from the prow of LaSalle’s lost Griffon, the Flying Dutchman of the Great Lakes, which disappeared after making a safe voyage from the Niagara River to the Strait of Detroit. LaSalle’s illfated caravel, the first ship ever built on America’s inland seas, with its 45 tons and five cannons, had its beakhead adorned ‘with a flying Griffin, and an eagle above it,’ in honor of the two heraldic beasts on the armorial bearing of the great Frontenac.” The Griffin became the symbol for Canisius athletics in the mid-1930s. Steve Weller wrote in The Buffalo News Jan. 22, 1962, “You can have your Chihuahuas, Piranhas, Horned Frogs and Iguanas. The best all-around athletic mascot in business today has to be the beast adopted by Canisius College – the Golden Griffin.”
2009 Canisius Male Athlete of the Year Kevin Mailloux was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the 2009 MLB Draft, while Female Athlete of the Year Natalia Tarasova won the solo event at the U.S. Collegiate Championships.

Administration Rev. Vincent M. Cooke, S.J. President President of Canisius College since 1993, Rev. Vincent M. Cooke, S.J. has transformed Canisius College from a commuter college serving primarily the Western New York market into a residential comprehensive university drawing students from across the Northeast and beyond. Under Father Cooke’s leadership, Canisius has invested nearly $142 million in 24 major capital projects on the Main street campus, including $85 million in eight major residence hall projects during this time. Plans to develop Science Hall, an interdisciplinary science center at the college, are underway. Educating students for the demands of an ever-changing world is a high priority for Father Cooke. New majors in emerging fields such as bioinformatics, international business, accounting information systems, health and human performance and digital media arts have recently been added to Canisius’ comprehensive curriculum. Canisius faculty, students and staff are heavily involved in a wide variety of service learning and volunteer activities throughout Western New York and beyond. Father Cooke received high marks in a Buffalo News poll of Western New York leaders which ranked Father Cooke as the second most influential civic leader and the college as the second most influential institution overall in terms of their positive impact on the community. Father Cooke was also recognized by The Buffalo News as one of its Outstanding Citizens for 2001 and named the 2003 Renaissance Man by the Buffalo Renaissance Foundation (BRF). He received the 2005 Humanitarian Award from the Niagara Lutheran Foundation, and the National Federation for Just Communities (NFJC) of Western New York presented Father Cooke with a 2007 Citation Award for his community leadership. In early 2008, Father Cooke served as a delegate at the Jesuits’ General Congregation 35 that elected Father Adolfo Nicolas as the new General of the Society of Jesus. Father Cooke was also a delegate at General Congregation 33 in 1983 that elected Father Peter-Hans Kolvenbach as General. Prior to joining the Canisius community, Father Cooke served as executive and academic vice president of John Carroll University. Born in New York and raised in Hoboken, NJ, Father Cooke received a bachelor of arts degree from Fordham University in 1960; a Licentiate in philosophy from Loyola Seminary, Shrub Oak, in 1961; master’s degrees in teaching and philosophy in 1962 and 1965; respectively, from Fordham; advanced theology degrees from Woodstock College in 1967 and Yale University in 1968; and a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Wisconsin – Madison in 1971. Father Cooke’s academic area of expertise focuses on ethics, the theory of knowledge and the philosophy of language. Father Cooke is currently a member of the board of trustees of Fordham University, and a member of the finance committee of the New York Province of the Society of Jesus.
Dr. Ellen Conley Vice President for Student Affairs Ellen O. Conley, PhD, a member of the Canisius Community since 1970, was named vice president for student affairs in 1998. One of her many accomplishments in her role as vice president includes spearheading the upgrade of the athletics program at the college. Dr. Conley earned a bachelor’s degree from Slippery Rock State College (1967), advanced education degrees from the University of Pittsburgh (1968) and Buffalo State (1973) and a doctorate in higher education from the University at Buffalo (1981). During her tenure as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Dr. Conley supported the formation of the School of Education and Human Services, developed a mentoring program for new faculty, initiated the development of majors in criminal justice and environmental science and guided the initiative to implement a Master of Science in Organizational Communication and Development. She also established the Fine Arts Department and facilitated the development of MusiCanisius, which has since evolved into the ArtsCanisius program. While acting dean, she coordinated the promotion of the school’s graduate education program to the Canadian market and guided the implementation of the Master in Sport Administration. From 1987-89, Dr. Conley was the assistant director of athletics for women’s sports and financial aid, and from 1987-90, she was the athletic scholarship coordinator. Under her direction, the women’s athletic program was formed and grew from one club level team to seven varsity teams. In addition, she implemented and monitored an athletic scholarship program for men’s and women’s non-revenue producing sports. From 1982-1990 Dr. Conley served as chair of the undergraduate Physical Education Major Program and Coordinator of the Physical Education Graduate Program. In 1989, she developed alternative curricular tracks for physical education majors to enhance enrollment, and in 1986, she co-wrote the New York State Professional Preparation Council’s position paper for “Strengthening Teaching in New York State.”
