2002-03 OUTLOOK
2002-03 Provides Promise
Three freshmen and nine sophomores join A new aura surrounds Cornell basketball in what is a new era — a youth movement if you will. Three freshmen and nine sophomores dot a 14-man roster. No time for history ... just time spent creating the future. The good thing about rookies is they have short memories when it comes to what they consider to be ancient times. If the Big Red can help it, troubles of the recent past will be erased sooner rather than later.
In his third season, head coach Steve Donahue has a group of players he likes ... tough, scrappy underdogs who live for competition. Who would do anything to win. To say he’s optimistic about the season ... that would be an understatement. Withhisfirstrecruitingclassgainingayearofexperience, strength and knowledge of the Division I game, it is expectedtoformthecoreofCornell’srejuvenationproject. Coupled with the return of upperclassmen Ka’Ron Barnes and Jacques Vigneault and three talented scorers in an able freshman class, Cornell could become the surprise of the Ivy League in 2002-03. Donahue will have his team continue to cut its teeth on the toughest competition around with an eye on Ivy League play. The Big Red will square off with Syracuse and Georgia Tech on the road, as well as America East champ Vermont and five Patriot League foes. Coming off a season where the Ancient Eight sent three teams to postseason play and now return an average of four startersand10letterwinners,theBigRedwillhave itsworkcutoutforitifitistoclimbthestandings. BACKCOURT FLOODED WITH CONTRIBUTORS The backcourt will be crowded, and the large number of guards and swingmen will lead to unprecedented competition. As many as eight players will see minutes at the two guard positions,includingsenior Jacques Vigneault and junior Ka’Ron Barnes, both captains, and the team’sleadingreturning scorer, sophomore Cody Toppert. When Cornell is in need of a 3-pointer, thereisnodoubtthat Vigneault will be on the floor. One of the top perimeter shooters in the Ivy League, the tri-captain averaged a career-best 4.9 points per game while connecting on 43 percent of his shots from 6

Barnes is the team’s second-leading returning scorer, averaging 8.6 points per game a season ago. An explosive athlete who can make the mid-range jump shot, Barnes creates his own scoring opportunities off the dribble and can set up his teammates with thepass.

For Young Big Red Squad Barnes, Vigneault for season to build on Toppert was one of the premier freshmen in the Ivy League a season ago, finishing second on the squad in scoring(10.3),rebounding(4.4)andsteals(27)whilebeing the only Big Red player to start all 27 games. A tremendous mid-range shooter and one of the toughest competitors around, Toppert spent the summer working on improving on all facets of his game. He can also slide down to the small forward slot thanks to his aggressiveness on the backboards and his improved ability to attack the rim. Competing for time at the point guard position will be sophomores Steve Cobb and A.J. Castro. Both players bring

The Miami, Fla., native drew sixstartsandaveraged3.5pointswhileshootingbetterthan 41 percent from 3-point range. A fundamentally sound player, Castro is a solid ball-handler and decision maker, capable of leading the fast break or running the team’s halfcourt offense.

The victories, though few, were certainly noteworthy. Cornell got into the win column by knocking off crosstown rival Ithaca, handing the Division III Bombers a 77-45 loss. The meeting, designated as a “Coaches vs. Cancer” game to benefit the American Cancer Society, pitted the rival schools located five miles apart for the first time in 102 years of Big Red basketball. Stephenson, playing in his first collegiate game after missing eight contests due to a broken foot suffered in preseason, recorded a double-double to send Cornell into the holiday break with a win over topping Lehigh. Despite entering the contest with a 2-10 record, and falling behind 9-2, Cornell held Army scoreless for more than 11 minutes en route to its largest victory in three years, 90-65 over the Black Knights. The Big Red also stole a victory from Harvard at home as the Crimson were fighting for an Ivy title, and ruined Dartmouth’s “Senior Day” with a decisive 70-61 win over the Big Green. Several of Cornell’s losses were also memorable. Bucknell’s Boakai Lalugba hit a turn-around 3-pointer from 28 feet away at the buzzer to send the game into overtime, then powered the Bison to a 71-62 victory, denying Cornell its first win of the season. The bomb was Lalugba’s first career make from behind the arc. The Big Red also held their own against Syracuse and Georgia Tech during much of their matchups before falling to the taller, more athletic foes. And Donahue’s squad nearly put the Ivy League on its ear during the final three weekends of play, dropping close games to conference title contenders Princeton, Yale and Brown. www.CornellBigRed.com
2001-02 SEASON IN REVIEW Jeffrion Aubry in the NBDL Cornell was well-represented in the inaugural year of the NBA’s new National Basketball Developmental League (NBDL), as former Big Red player Jeffrion Aubry starred for the FayettevillePatriots.Aubry,a6-11center,ranked among the league’s top 10 in both blocked shots (3rd, 1.7 bpg.) and rebounds (10th, 6.3 rpg.), while also averaging 7.1 points on a team-best .520 shooting.

At Cornell, the Brookville,N.Y.,nativeaveraged10.5points, 8.6 rebounds and 2.4 blocks as a senior and ended his career atop the blocked shots chart with 187 in his four seasons.
‘01-02 HIGHLIGHT: FIRST MEETING WITH ITHACA After 102 years of Big Red basketball, Cornell and Ithaca College, neighbors separated by just five miles, met for the first time on the hardcourt. The Division III Bombers held the game tight, trailing just 24-18 at the half, before Cornell pulled away for a 77-45 victory. The game was part of the “Coaches vs. Cancer” series, and proceeds of the game were donated to the American Cancer Society.

CORNELL 70, DARTMOUTH 61 FEB. 23, 2002 — LEEDE ARENA
HANOVER, N.H. - It may have been senior night at Dartmouth, but it was Cornell’s freshmen who helped the Big Red snap a 17-game road losing skid in a 70-61 win at Leede Arena. Cornell hit on 11 3-point field goals to surpass the school’s single-season record of 186 set by the 1995-96 squad. The team ended the evening with 188 for the year. Cody Toppert led the way with 18 points and eight rebounds, while Eric Taylor had a career-best 15 points to go along with eight rebounds. Pete Carroll had a career-best 12 points on a perfect 4-of-4 night from beyond the arc. Senior Flinder Boyd led the Big Green with 16 points, including the 1,000th of his career, and classmate Vedad Osmanovic notched 15 points. The most telling statistic on who wanted the game more was the Big Red’s 41-22 advantage on the glass, including 145 on the offensive boards. The Big Red jumped out to a 20-0 lead to open the game and never trailed.

THE IVY LEAGUE
The Council of Ivy Group Presidents The designation “Ivy League” first appeared at the typewriter of Caswell Adams of the New York Tribune in 1937. The tag, premature of any formal agreement, was immediately adopted by the press as a foreshadowing of an eastern football league which, at the time, was big news to everyone except theathleticdirectorsinvolved. For years, the Ivy members had already beenalliedinleaguesinbasketball,ice hockey, baseball and swimming. Further common competition was found in the Heptagonal Games Association, which included Army and Navy, in the sports of baseball, track and field, and swimming. Through these other scheduling arrangements,theIvyathleticdirectorswere used to dealing with each other in matters of administration or the exchange of calculated confidences. As a result of these dealings, and through extensive presidential meetings anddiscussions, thefirst“IvyGroup Agreement”—addressing only football— was signed in 1945. While the 1945 statement did not address any schedulingissues,itdidaffirmtheobservanceat the eight institutions of common practices in academic standards, eligibilityrequirementsandtheadministrationoffinancialaidforathletes.These tenetsarewhatstillbindtheIvies together today and all continue to be based on the desire to secure competitionwithothershavinglikephilosophies. Theathleticdirectors,atthedirectionof the presidents, were then more formally organized as a committee for cooperativeendeavorinthedetailsofathletic administration and a dean from each school was appointed as a committee to exchange information on eligibility and to act for the presidents in cooperation withtheathleticdirectors. In February 1954, what is more commonly accepted as the founding date for the Ivy League, the Ivy Group Agreement was reissued to extend its philosophicaljurisdictiontoallsports andtofoster,insofaraspossible,intragroup competition. In layman’s terms, that meant a complete round robin schedule in football, beginning with the 1956 season. Such an agreement— assuring seven spots on an eight- to 10game schedule to Ivy opponents— required numerous concessions from each institution and marked a high pointinintercollegiatecooperation.

Cornell Athletic Hall of Fame Below are the 32 members of the Cornell Athletic Hall of Fame who were a part of the basketball program. Six members were inducted in 1978, the inaugural year of the Hall of Fame, while the last player elected was Walt Esdaile in 1999. Players are eligible to be inducted 10 years after graduation. Membership in the Hall will total 429 with the induction of the class of 2002. The Hall of Fame is due in large part to the generosity of the late Ellis H. Robinson ‘18, whose gift to the University resulted in the construction of the Robison Hall of Fame Room in Schoellkopf Memorial Hall. NAME CLASS INDUCTED Charles H.

Cornell University/Realizing a Bold Dream In the mid 1800s, two New Yorkstate senators,Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White, shared the bold dream of founding a “truly greatuniversity.” Cornell,aplainspokeninventor, wanted “an institutionwhere any person can findinstructionin anystudy,” including the mechanical arts and agriculture. White, a scholarly graduate of Oxford and Yale, yearned to establish a universitywhere“truthshallbetaughtfortruth’ssake”inthe arts and sciences. Together they created a nonsectarian universitythatwasthefirstintheeasternUnitedStatesto admit women and that pioneered the concept of elective courses.Theiregalitarianvisionandinnovativeideas,which set Cornell apart at its opening in 1868, continue to guide theuniversitytoday. Cornell includes 13 colleges and schools. On the Ithaca campus are the seven undergraduate units—the College of AgricultureandLifeSciences;theCollegeofArchitecture,Art, and Planning; the College of Arts and Sciences; the College of Engineering; the School of Hotel Administration; the College of Human Ecology; and the School of Industrial and Labor Relations—as well as four graduate and professional units: the Graduate School, the Law School, the Johnson Graduate School of Management, and the College of Veterinary Medicine. (The Weill Medical College and the Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences are in New York City.)AnIvyLeagueuniversitythatisalsotheland-grant institution of New York State, Cornell is a unique combination of public and private divisions committed to teaching, research,andpublicservice. Cornell’s 13,600 undergraduates and 6,000 graduate and professional students come from all 50 states and more than 100countries.InterdisciplinarystudyandresearchareCornell
CORNELL’S MISSION AND VALUES In keeping with the founding vision of Ezra Cornell, our community fosters personal discovery and growth, nurtures scholarship and creativity across a broad range of common knowledge, and engages men and women from every segment of society in this quest.

OPEN DOORS, OPEN HEARTS, AND OPEN MINDS Cornell’s Statement on Diversity and Inclusiveness Open Doors ”I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study.” This statement, made by Ezra Cornell in 1865, proclaims Cornell University’s enduring commitment to inclusion and opportunity which is rooted in the shared democratic values envisioned by its founders. We honor this legacy of diversity and inclusion and welcome all individuals, including those from groups that have been historically marginalized and previously excluded from equal access to opportunity. Open Hearts Cornell’s mission is to foster personal discovery and growth, nurture scholarship and creativity across a broad range of common knowledge and affirm the value to individuals and society of the cultivation of the human mind and spirit. Our legacy is reflected in the diverse composition of our community, the breadth of our curriculum, the strength of our public service, and the depth of our commitment to freedom, equity, and reason. Each member of the Cornell community has a responsibility to honor this legacy and to support a more diverse and inclusive campus in which to work, study, teach, research, and serve. Open Minds Free expression is essential to this mission, and provocative ideas lawfully presented are an expected result. An enlightened academic community, however, connects freedom with responsibility. Cornell stands for civil discourse, reasoned thought, sustained discussion and constructive engagement without degrading, abusing, harassing, or silencing others. Cornell is committed to act responsibly and forthrightly to maintain an environment that opens doors, opens hearts and opens minds.

Cornell Points of Interest Jennie McGraw Tower and Cornell Chimes: Constructed in 1891 atop Uris Library, the tower is a campus landmark, 173 feet high and 161 steps from the ground. It houses the Cornell clock, chimes, and chimes museum. The reconfigured, retuned, and expanded set of 21 bells was reinstalled in the tower in fall 1999. The chimes are played daily by student and alumni chimesmasters, whose repertoire includes more than two thousand songs. Willard Straight Hall: “The Straight” opened in 1925 as one of the nation’s first student unions.

Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art: The museum is housed in a building designed by I. M. Pei. Built in 1973 on the site where Ezra Cornell is said to have announced his intention to found a university, it offers spectacular views of the campus, Ithaca, and Cayuga Lake. The museum’s Asian, American, and graphic arts collections are especiallynotable. Cornell Plantations: The Plantations’ holdings include 3,600 acres in and around Ithaca, all open to the public. On or near campus are the arboretum and botanical garden (200 acres) and 500 acres of natural areas encompassing woodlands, trails, streams, and gorges. Easily accessible on campus are rose, peony, rhododendron, wildflower, and herb gardens; shrub and nut-tree collections; the Pounder Heritage Crops Garden; and the Muenscher Poisonous Plants Garden. Laboratory of Ornithology: Situated not far from the main campus, the laboratory’s facilities include the Lyman K. Stuart Observatory, which overlooks a 10-acre pond and a bird-feeding garden, and the 200-acre Sapsucker Woods, a wildlife sanctuary with more than four miles of trails.

Tom
Cornell’s 1,100 varsity athletes have exclusive access toone ofthe newest and best training facilities in the nation—the 8,000-square-foot Friedman Strength and Conditioning Center. Completed in June 1997, this impressive $2 million addition to Bartels Hall reflects the university’s strong commitment to athletic excellence. Coaches and team members alike credit the center,itsworld-classequipment,andfirst-ratestaffwithaddingimmensely to the success of the Big Red athletic program. The Friedman Center contains free-weight, selectorized, plyometric, and cardiovascular equipment and has been designed to meet the diverse training needs of Cornell’s athletes. The center can accommodate up to 100 users at a time without compromising safety or function. Its unique features include air-conditioning, a 175-watt stereo system, and damage-resistant flooring. Cornell’s varsity strength and conditioning program—nicknamed “Big Red Power”—focuses on enhancing performance and preventing injury. The new facility and equipment enable the staff to prescribe year-round sportspecific programs with variety and precision. Before the training programs are designed, the muscular and metabolic needs for each sport—and for each position within the sport—are analyzed. Athletes are then assessed to identify their individual strengths and weaknesses, and follow-up assessments are conducted at regular intervals. Comprehensive workouts are prescribed to address deficiencies and promote the development of skills used during competition. Injury prevention also is emphasized. Through resistance training, the number and the severityofinjuriesarereduced. If an injury does occur, the strength and conditioning staff works closely with the sports medicine staff to ensure a safe and complete rehabilitation. The objective is to allow the athletetoresumefullparticipation as soon as possible.
