• The summer of 2018 was the fourth-straight year an Eagle has represented EWU in the NBA Summer League.

• SHANTAY LEGANS made history in 2017-18, as his team’s 20 wins were the most by a first-year Eastern coach in EWU’s NCAA Division I era. Among the victories was a 67-61 victory at Stanford to break EWU’s 21-game losing streak versus Pacific-12 Conference foes.

The combined 117 victories in six seasons, 101 in five, 86 in four, 66 in three and 44 in two are also the most since EWU became a member of NCAA Division I in the 1983-84 season. The same can be said of EWU’s stretch of league victories -- 10, 14, 10, 13, 13, 12 -- in that five-year span. Eastern has had its first back-to-back-to-back national tournament postseason appearances at the Division I level with a stretch of four-straight from 2015-18, including its firstever win (79-72 over =Pepperdine in the CBI in 2016).

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 2018-19 REVIEW: Eagles Close Season as Big Sky Runner-Up Again Trio of seniors depart, but future bright after underclassmen lead EWU to 13 victories in last 19 games

I

n the grand scheme of things, a 13-6 record told the real story of the Eastern Washington University men’s basketball team in the 2018-19 season.

After starting the season 1-9, the Eagles finished 16-18, and came a victory short of playing in the NCAA Tournament for the third time in school history. Eastern’s stretch of four-straight national tournament berths came to an end, but the Eagles finished as the Big Sky Conference runner-up for the secondstraight season.

Eastern fell 68-62 to two-time regular season and tournament champion Montana on March 16 in the championship game of the Big Sky Conference Basketball Tournament presented by My Place Hotels at CenturyLink Arena in Boise, Idaho. Eastern led by as many as 12 in the first half and five at halftime, but couldn’t hold off the Griz.

Third-seeded Eastern advanced to the title game with a 77-61 victory over No. 7 Southern Utah in the semifinals, which followed a 90-84 victory over No. 6 Montana State in the quarterfinals. Junior Mason Peatling was selected to the All-Tournament team after averaging 20.3 points and 9.3 rebounds in three games while sinking 62.9 percent of his shots from the field. He was joined by redshirt

freshman Kim Aiken Jr., who averaged 11.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.0 blocked shots with a pair of double-doubles in his first postseason experience.

Peatling and senior Jesse Hunt earned second team All-Big Sky honors for the Eagles, with sophomore Jacob Davison earning third team accolades despite missing the last 10 games with an ankle injury. Eastern’s other two seniors were Cody Benzel and Ty Gibson, who combined with Hunt to play in 382 total games as Eagles to all rank in the top 11 in school history.

Eastern finished 12-8 in Big Sky Conference play, including a five-game winning streak late in the year to help secure third place in the regular season standings and win its first two tournament games. After EWU started the season 1-9, Peatling returned from a toe injury and the Eagles were 15-9 the rest of the season. Eastern was just 1-3 to start league play, but then won 13 of its final 19 games of the season.

“I couldn’t be more proud of our basketball team,” said Eastern head coach Shantay Legans following his second year at the helm. “They did a great job in the championship game and they did a great job from the beginning of the year. We were in the same exact situation last year at the end of the season. We started off the season with a lot of injuries, but we had players who stepped up to be great leaders and understand exactly

what the season was about. It’s about building relationships and getting guys to believe in a common goal. When you bring in new players to a team it’s always a little rocky, but we had three great seniors. And Mason was an unbelievable leader.”

Eastern had its fourth-straight season with 10 Big Sky wins or more and a sixth-straight year with a winning league record. Eastern is 65-29 in Big Sky play in those six years for a .691 winning percentage.

Hunt and Benzel were the lone two starters lost from the 2018-19 team, with the other starters including Peatling, Davison and point guard Tyler Kidd. Underclassmen Luka Vulikic (14 starts), Jack Perry (11 starts), Aiken (11 starts), Tanner Groves (2 starts) and Austin Fadal (2 starts) also saw action as starters, and coming off the bench to play significantly was Elijah Jackson.

Three Eagles finished ranked in the top 25 in scoring in league games only -- junior Mason Peatling had a 15.3 average (seventh), followed by Jesse Hunt (13.9; 12th) and Tyler Kidd (12.0; 23rd). Hunt was also second in rebounding (9.5; a single rebound away from tying for the lead) and Peatling was fourth (7.2). Kidd averaged 3.8 assists to rank seventh and Hunt was right behind in eighth with a 3.6 average.

Until he suffered an ankle injury on Feb. 16 and forcing him to miss the last seven games,

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 2018-19 Honors Jesse Hunt

Jacob Davison had been the hottest Eagle, averaging 23.8 points in his last nine outings since scoring 11 versus Montana on Jan. 10.

He had the seventh-most points in school history with 41 versus Northern Arizona on Feb. 4, and had averages of 15.2 points on the season and a team-leading 18.5 in league play, which would have ranked fifth in the Big Sky if he had played enough of EWU’s games to qualify (75 percent).

Besides missing the last 10 games, wrist and ankle injuries kept Davison out of the first two games and preseason practices. Peatling missed the first nine games with a toe injury that required surgery in September, and Hunt was cleared to play after preseason practices because of foot surgery in July. Steven Beo, a transfer from BYU, played just three games because of an ankle injury, but is now eligible to appeal for a sixth year when he concludes his senior season in 2021. In addition, Perry and Gibson both missed games because of concussions.

Legans recorded the most wins by an Eastern rookie head coach at the NCAA Division I level with 20 in the 2017-18 season. He followed that with 16 in the 2018-19 season, giving him a 36-33 record in two seasons at the helm (25-13 in league play). Coupled with his eight seasons as an assistant under two head coaches, EWU teams are 161-166 in his 10-year Eastern tenure (99-85 in league play).

“I’ve liked both teams and we’ve gone up against some good teams,” added Legans

of his first two seasons as a head coach. “To play without a couple of players hurt us during the year, but it’s next man up. That’s how we do it at Eastern – you are always fighting to the very end. I like all the players we had and got here with. We were in the championship last year and this year, and we’ll be back.”

After EWU’s 16-18 finish in 2018-19, he has been a part of Eastern teams from the 2013-14 through 2018-19 seasons which have win totals of 15, 26, 18, 22, 20 and 16 games. The three 20-victory seasons are among the top four win totals in EWU’s 36year history in NCAA Division I. The combined 117 wins in six seasons, 101 wins in five seasons, 86 victories in four seasons, 66 in three and 44 in two are also the most since EWU became a member of NCAA Division I in the 1983-84 season. The same can be said of EWU’s stretch of league victories -- 10, 14, 10, 13, 13, 12 -- in that six-year span.

In addition, Hunt’s 17 rebounds at Sacramento State on Jan. 26, 2019, equaled the eighth-most in recorded school history, his 16 against Idaho State on March 7, 2019, equals the 17th most and his 15 on Jan. 10, 2019, versus Montana ranks 25th. Luka Vulikic had 10 assists against North Dakota State on Dec. 8, 2018, to equal the 22nd most in school history.

As a team, EWU’s 45 3-point attempts at Oregon on Nov. 9, 2018, broke the previous school record of 44. Opponents made 291-of-766 3-pointers against the Eagles in 2018-19, which were both all-time highs versus EWU.

Nation’s Best Seven Eagles on 2018-19 NABC Honors Court Seven players from Eastern – the most in NCAA Division I and in the Big Sky Conference – were honored on the 201819 National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) Honors Court announced on July 17, 2019.

Seniors Jesse Hunt and Ty Gibson were selected for the second-straight year, and were joined by Steven Beo, Tyler Kidd, Mason Peatling, Joshua Thomas and Luka Vulikic.

The seven selections were the most EWU has had a single season, bettering the six Eastern had in 2017-18 and four the Eagles had in the 2014-15 school year.

The Honors Court recognizes those men’s collegiate basketball student-athletes who excelled in academics during the past season. The NABC Honors Court recognizes the talents and gifts that these men possess off the court and the hard work they exhibit in the classroom.

To qualify, the recipients must have junior or senior standing academically, and have a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.2 or higher at the conclusion of the 2018-19 academic year. They must have

also matriculated at least one year at their current institution.

The Eastern men’s basketball team was also honored for the sixth-straight year with the NABC Team Academic Excellence Award.

That award was won by 165 colleges and universities for having a team cumulative grade point average of 3.0 and above for the 2018-19 season.

Eastern, Gonzaga and Seattle were the only NCAA Division I schools in the state of Washington to be honored, and were joined by Seattle Pacific from NCAA Division II. Eastern and Idaho State were the only Big Sky Conference schools to be recognized.

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 Head Coach

Legans has now coached in 16 Big Sky Conference Tournament games, with a record of 10-6 in six appearances (6-2 in two appearances as head coach). Eastern’s 2014-15 squad won the title and advanced to the NCAA Tournament with a trio of victories in Missoula, Montana. Included was a come-from-behind 69-65 win over the host Grizzlies in the championship game.

SHANTAY LEGANS

In the 2018-19 season, Eastern defeated all 10 Big Sky Conference foes en route to finishing 12-8 in league play and finishing in sole possession of third.

Decimated by injuries, Eastern was 1-9 at one point before winning 13 of their last 19 games to finish 16-18. Eastern lost in the championship game of the Big Sky Conference Tournament for the second-straight season.

Third Season (11th Overall at EWU) Fresno State ‘04

L

ike the strides the Eastern Washington University Basketball program has made since he arrived as an assistant in 2009, Shantay Legans made some history as a head coach too in the 2017-18 season when he led the Eagles to a fourthstraight national postseason tournament berth.

Legans recorded the most wins by an Eastern rookie head coach at the NCAA Division I level with 20 in the 2018-19 season. He followed that with 16 in the 2018-19 season, giving him a 36-33 record in two seasons at the helm (25-13 in league play). Coupled with his eight seasons as an assistant under two head coaches, EWU teams are 161-166 in his 10-year Eastern tenure (99-85 in league play).

“I’ve liked both teams and we’ve gone up against some good opposition,” said Legans. “To play without a couple of players hurt us during the year, but it’s next man up. That’s how we do it at Eastern – you are always fighting to the very end. I like all the players we had and got here with. We were in the championship last year and this year, and we’ll be back.”

After EWU’s 16-18 finish in 2018-19, he has been a part of Eastern teams from the 2013-14 through 2018-19 seasons which have win totals of 15, 26, 18, 22, 20 and 16 games. The three 20-victory seasons are among the top four win totals in EWU’s 36-year history in NCAA Division I. The combined 117 wins in six seasons, 101 wins in five, 86 in four, 66 in three and 44 in two are also the most since EWU became a member of NCAA Division I in the 198384 season. The same can be said of EWU’s stretch of league victories -- 10, 14, 10, 13, 13, 12 -- in that six-year span.

His 20 wins as a rookie are the most by a first-year Eastern coach in EWU’s NCAA Division I era, besting Ray Giacoletti with 17 in the 2000-01 season. Joe Folda also won 17 games in 1982-83 as an interim head coach during Eastern’s rise from NAIA to NCAA Division I. Thus, you have to go back to the 1942-43 season when Bob Brumblay won 27 games in his debut season to find a first-year Eastern coach with more than 18 victories, which is also the only time it’s happened.

Among the victories in his first season was a 67-61 triumph at Stanford to break EWU’s 21-game losing streak versus Pacific-12 Conference foes. Interestingly, he played for California for three seasons from 2000-03 and the Bears lost to the Cardinal in all five meetings.

He also was instrumental in the development of of Big Sky Conference all-time leading scorer Bogdan Bliznyuk, who left EWU in 2018 as the Big Sky Conference Player of the Year and an honorable mention AllAmerica selection. Bliznyuk played in the NABC All-Star game at the “Final Four” after finishing with 2,169 career points and breaking a total of 16 school records along the way.

Legans was announced as EWU’s new head basketball coach on March 29, 2017. Legans is the 18th coach in Eastern history, and directed the Eagles to a 13-5 record in the Big Sky Conference and appearance in the BSC Tournament championship game in his debut season.

He was an Eastern assistant for eight years before becoming EWU’s 10th coach at the NCAA Division I level.

Legans spent six years on the staff of Jim Hayford (now head coach at Seattle), and two previous seasons under former head coach Kirk Earlywine (now an assistant at Idaho). Legans was associate head coach under Hayford

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 for the final three of those eight seasons.

A former player at Cal and Fresno State, Legans assisted Hayford in recruiting, scouting and game preparation for the Eagles, as well as on-the-floor coaching and the development of EWU’s backcourt players.

While at EWU, the Eagles have had their first back-to-back-to-back national tournament postseason appearances at the Division I level and extended it to four-straight in the 2017-18 season. Included was Eastern’s first-ever postseason national tournament win (79-72 over Pepperdine in the College Basketball Invitational in 2016). He helped coach Eastern to a 26-9 record overall, Big Sky Conference regular season and tournament titles and a NCAA Tournament appearance in the 2014-15 season.

Besides coaching Bliznyuk at Eastern, Legans has helped develop numerous All-Big Sky Conference guards in Glen Dean, Cliff Colimon, Tyler Harvey, Austin McBroom and Jacob Davison. Dean was the league’s Freshman of the Year in 2010 and an All-BSC guard in 2011; Colimon earned first-team allleague and All-Big Sky Conference Tournament honors as a senior in 2012.

Bliznyuk followed in the footsteps of Jacob Wiley, who was a graduate transfer at EWU in 2016-17 and was also Big Sky MVP and an honorable mention All-America selection. Wiley eventually signed a contract and played with the Brooklyn Nets in the NBA, and also saw action for the Long Island Nets in the G-League. Both Wiley and Bliznyuk excelled at the Portsmouth Invitational pre-draft tournament.

“Bogdan is a prime example of what Eastern Washington Basketball is all about,” Legans said. “He is a humble, hard-working and dedicated player on and off the court. What he has been able to accomplish for himself and our program is truly remarkable.”

Legans helped develop Harvey from an Eastern walk-on to NBA draftee, including Harvey’s transition to a starting position late in the 2012-13 season.

Harvey averaged 16.5 points on 55 percent shooting from the field (including 20-of-44 3-point attempts) in EWU’s last eight games that year after scoring just 17 points in the first 13 games he played.

In the 2013-14 season, Harvey was a first team All-Big Sky selection and earned second team honors on the National Association of Basketball Coaches All-District 6 team – EWU’s first player honored on that team since Rodney Stuckey in 2007. He followed that by leading NCAA Division I in scoring (23.1) and 3-pointers (4.0) per game in the 2014-15 season, and was eventually taken in the second round of the NBA Draft by the Orlando Magic as the 51st pick overall.

Harvey also earned honorable mention All-America honors and was a first team Academic All-America selection. Harvey was also MVP of the Big Sky Conference Tournament. The year after, McBroom earned first team All-Big Sky and NABC All-District 6 honors in his lone season as an Eagle.

Most recently, Davison earned third team All-Big Sky honors in the 2018-19 season despite missing the last 10 games with an ankle injury. Forward Jesse Hunt earned first team honors in 2018-19 and forward Mason Peatling was a second team choice.

Associate Head Coach

In his lone season on the staff at Davidson, the Wildcats finished 17-15 overall and 8-10 in the Atlantic 10 Conference.

While on the bench for the Anteaters the previous six years, UC Irvine was 118-90 overall, 60-38 in Big West play and advanced to the postseason four times, including the 2015 NCAA Tournament.

“Nick understands what we look for in student-athletes, and knows what It takes to be a successful coach,” added Legans. “He has won at every level, first, as a player at Davidson, but also at the junior college and NCAA Division I levels as a coach.”

The 2016-17 season was Booker’s seventh year overall as a member of the UC Irvine basketball staff and his sixth as an assistant coach with the Anteater program. Booker was promoted to assistant coach prior to the 2011-12 season after serving his first season as the team’s director of operations, in which he assisted the basketball coaching staff with travel, purchasing, film exchange, community service and handled many of the day-to-day office duties.

Booker’s responsibilities as an assistant included skill development, academic monitoring, recruiting, on-court coaching (defensive emphasis), and summer camps. Booker was involved in the player-development process and has helped 10 players earn All-Big West Conference accolades in his tenure at UC Irvine.

NICK BOOKER Third Season

Booker also played a vital role in the performance of Anteater players in the classroom by working directly with UC Irvine’s academic support center to ensure the players’ obligations are met. In his career at UC Irvine, Booker has helped sign, and maintain eligibility, of arguably the best recruiting classes in UC Irvine history.

Davidson ‘04 With nine years of NCAA Division I basketball experience, Nick Booker enters his third season as the associate head coach on the staff of Eastern men’s basketball head coach Shantay Legans.

His responsibilities at EWU include player skill development with emphasis on post players, and on-court coaching with defensive emphasis. He also oversees academic monitoring, recruiting, practice planning, in-season opponent scouting and summer camps.

In two seasons at Eastern, Booker has helped Eastern win 36 games overall, 25 in Big Sky Conference play and appearances both seasons in the league championship game. After a 20-win season in 2017-18, Eastern followed that by defeating all 10 Big Sky Conference foes en route to finishing 12-8 in league play and going 16-18 overall.

Decimated by injuries, Eastern was 1-9 at one point in the 2018-19 season before winning 13 of its last 19. Forward Jesse Hunt earned first team All-Big Sky honors for the Eagles, forward Mason Peatling was on the second team and Jacob Davison earned third team honors. Guard/forward Kim Aiken Jr. earned All-Big Sky Tournament honors along with Peatling, and both players and Davison return for the 2019-20 campaign.

Before coming to Eastern for the debut season of Legans, Booker spent the 2016-17 season at his alma mater, Davidson College, as director of basketball operations. The previous six seasons he was at UC Irvine in California, including the last five as an assistant coach.

As a player and coach, he has been a part of teams to advance to the NCAA Tournament twice, as well as the National Invitation Tournament (NIT) once, the College Insider Tournament (CIT) on two occasions and the College Basketball Invitational while at EWU in 2017-18. He was also an assistant on Saddleback College teams which won the California Community College Athletic Association title one season and was runner-up the year prior.

“Coach Booker has a great basketball mind, and is well-respected among basketball coaches around the country and internationally,” said Legans. “His desire to help student-athletes succeed both on and off the court is an extremely important quality for our program.

In the 2015-16 season, the Anteaters registered a school-record 28 wins and also set new UCI marks for non-conference victories (15) and road wins (13). The team advanced to the championship game of the CollegeInsider.com (CIT) postseason tournament and the Anteaters had an RPI as high as 41 (best in school history) during the regular season and a final RPI of 68.

Booker was also involved in the school’s historic 2014-15 season when the Anteaters won the Big West Conference Tournament and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the first time. The Anteaters fell to three-time national champion Louisville by just two points in an NCAA Second-Round game at Seattle, Wash.

The 2013-14 team advanced to the NIT and the 2012-13 squad played in the CIT where is recorded the first national postseason win in school history. That started a fouryear stretch in which the Anteaters were a collective 93-51 (21-16, 23-12, 21-13, 28-10), with a pair of Big West titles.

Booker’s efforts helped the Anteaters become one of the most feared defensive teams in the nation. In four of his seasons on the staff, UC Irvine ranked in the top 25 in field goal percentage defense, including third in 2014-15.

Prior to joining the Anteater staff, Booker served as an assistant coach at powerhouse community college, Saddleback College. Booker was instrumental in helping recruit and develop several All-State players, while the team captured the California Community College State Championship in 2009.

He graduated from Davidson College in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in history.

He was a member of the Wildcats’ team under current Davidson College head coach Bob McKillop. Booker was a starter for the 2002 Southern Conference championship team that competed in the NCAA Tournament against Ohio State. As a senior, he led Davidson in blocked shots and steals.

Booker went on to receive his master’s degree in physical education from Azusa Pacific in 2010.

“David is a very intelligent, hard-working individual who comes from a family of great coaches,” Legans added. “Being a coach is in his genes, and he has taken the next step to assume more responsibility with recruiting.

ntering his third season at the helm, Eastern Washington

University men’s basketball head coach Shantay Legans is dreaming of a year of health for his Eagle squad.

An injury-plagued season in 2018-19 ended with a second-straight appearance in the Big Sky Conference Tournament championship game for the Eagles, and four of the main players from that squad return. Legans expects them to be healthy – and stay that way -- and ready to help the Eagles challenge for the league title and a berth in the NCAA Tournament that has eluded EWU since 2015.

Davison averaged 15.2 per outing. Until he suffered an ankle injury on Feb. 16, 2019, and forcing him to miss the last 10 games, Davison had averaged 18.5 points in league play, including 23.8 points in his last nine outings.

Peatling was also selected to the Big Sky All-Tournament team after averaging 20.3 points and 9.3 rebounds in three games while sinking 62.9 percent of his shots from the field. He missed EWU’s first nine games with a toe injury, and his return turned out to be the turning point of the season for the Eagles.

“Mason is a big part of what we do, and if he stays healthy we will be pretty good,” said Legans. “We see improvements in his game every time he steps on the court, and same with Jacob – he has been able to stay healthy throughout the spring and summer as well. Some of the other guys have been nicked up with injuries, but nothing major.”

“For the last two years we have been banged up as soon as we hit Peatling and Davison are joined by sophomore Kim Aiken Jr., the Big Sky Tournament,” explained Legans, whose team was picked who averaged 11.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.0 blocked shots with a to finish first by his fellow coaches and third by the media in the 2019pair of double-doubles in his first postseason experience.

That will be a big thing for our team this year, but I redshirt freshman season with an average of 6.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per outing as a sub off the bench in 19 of the 30 games he played.

“We have three really good players who complement each other,” said Legans. “From there we have some great additional pieces that have stepped up and will turn into really good players. I think that it is the depth of this team. Our guys one through 10 can step on the court and play, but our inside presence is really good.”

Eastern’s third returning starter is point guard Tyler Kidd, who averaged 12.0 points and 3.8 assists. In all, Eastern returns eight letterwinners while losing four. Eastern’s 18-player roster is rounded out by six newcomers, a trio of 2018-19 Senior Forward & Preseason All-Big Sky Conference Selection MASON PEATLING redshirts and a transfer who had to sit out most of last season with an injury. think that we have a little bit more depth in certain positions.

“It depends on the game, the time of the season, who is healthy and who is playing well,” Legans explained. “We have a plethora of players who can do a lot of different things. Sometimes you’ll see Mason Groves, Eastern’s biggest player at 6-9, 235 pounds, started a pair handling the ball and we will post up Jacob, it just depends. of games.

Versus Northern Colorado (1/7/19) he finished with 19 points on 9-of-14 shooting from the field, plus had nine rebounds, two assists, two steals and two assists. He made his season debut as a starter versus Corban (12/21/18) in a 92-73 Eagle win. He played 18 minutes and finished with four points on 2-of-6 shooting, seven rebounds and four assists.

Shantay Legans on Groves: “Jacob has continued to improve his long-range shooting stroke, and he is growing into his 6-7 frame. He’s a home-grown student-athlete, and it will be very exciting to see Tanner and Jacob play side-by-side for the Eagles over the next few years. Having Jake join his brother Tanner here at EWU is going to be a great fit, both on the floor and in the locker room. We’ve had some amazing shooters from Spokane lately with Parker Kelly and Cody Benzel, and Jake fits that mold perfectly. He is one of the best shooters in the state and his size should translate very well to the college level. He’s also had great success in the classroom and community. He has had a terrific career at Shadle Park and has made great strides while showing tremendous growth as a player. He has a very unique combination of size and skill, and has a great shooting touch that gives him the ability to become a prolific 3-point threat in the Big Sky. His skill level on the court, combined with his IQ and toughness, is going to make him a major contributor.”

HS: Graduated from Shadle Park HS in 2019. Groves earned second team All-Greater Spokane League honors as a senior at Shadle Park, averaging 17.6 points and 9.5 rebounds per game. His single-game highs were 33 points and 15 rebounds. He helped the Highlanders to a 15-11 record overall in the first season under coach Arnold Brown. Because of weather, Shadle Park had to win two games on one day – one in Hermiston, Ore., and the other in Kennewick, Wash. – to advance to the regional round of the State 3A Tournament. As a junior, Groves averaged over 16 points and seven rebounds per game, making 60 percent from the field overall and 47 percent from the 3-point stripe.

With his size and athleticism he has the potential to fill a similar role to what Jake Wiley and Venky Jois played here in the past. He has some inside-outside game that will translate well in our offense, and his size and length can anchor our defense.”

HS: Graduated from Sunnybrook Christian HS in 2019. As a senior, Linares averaged 10.2 points, 9.0 rebounds, 4.9 blocked shots, 2.8 assists and 1.8 steals per game.

Ellis has football toughness and has proven that he’s a winner at every level he’s played which will carry on here at EWU.

Shantay Legans on Mohamed: “Some of the best players in EWU history have come from West Seattle and we’re excited to have a player of Abdul’s caliber come play here. Abdul has big goals both on and off the basketball court and will fit right in with our culture. Abdullahi has an extremely high basketball IQ, which is why he is going to fit in perfectly with our family here at Eastern Washington. His skill level on the court, combined with his intelligence and toughness, is going to make him a major contributor in the years to come. Abdullahi excels on and off the court, and has consistently done well in the classroom.

He is known as a leader on the court, but his ability to lead off the court and set an example in the classroom has been most impressive. Abdullahi has very lofty goals for his future and has said how he wants to rebuild East Africa and bring stability to that country by providing youth with tools to further develop its economy.”

But he injured his hand during the preseason and missed the first 25 games of the regular season. He finally made his NBA debut on Dec. 21, 2007, and his first start in the NBA was on March 1, 2008, in a 103-73 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.

He was impressive as a rookie, earning second team NBA All-Rookie Team honors as selected by the league’s head coaches. He finished his first season with averages of 19.8 minutes, 7.8 points and 2.9 assists per game as the Pistons advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals where they lost to eventual NBA champion Boston. His minutes increased in the playoffs as he averaged 8.2 points and 3.4 assists, while making 87.9 percent of his free throws, in 17 playoff games.

In his second season in 2008-09, Stuckey started 65 of 79 games, averaging 31.9 minutes, 13.4 points, 4.9 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.5 rebounds. In his third season, he was a starter in all but six of the 73 games he played and averaged 34.2 minutes, 16.6 points, 4.8 assists, 1.4 steals and 3.8 rebounds.

In the 2010-11 season – his fourth – he started 54 of 70 games and averaged 15.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.1 steals and a career-high 5.2 assists. In 2011-12 – his fifth season as a pro – Stuckey started 48 of 55 games and averaged 14.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, 0.8 steals and a 3.8 assists. His sixth NBA season in 2012-13 ended with him starting 24 of 76 games and averaging 11.5 points, 3.6 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 0.7 steals. In his seventh and final campaign with the Pistons, Stuckey averaged 13.9 points, 2.1 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 0.7 steals.

In 2014-15 – his eighth season as a pro and first with the Indiana Pacers – Stuckey averaged 12.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 0.8 steals per game in 71 games (36 starts). Stuckey signed a new 3-year, $21 million contract with the Pacers on July 21, 2015.

In his ninth season in 2015-16, he averaged 8.9 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.4 assists in the regular season before playing in the playoffs for the first time in seven seasons. He averaged 6.3 points, 2.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists in a seven-game playoff loss to Toronto. Stuckey, who missed 19 games in January and February with an ankle sprain, had season highs of 23 points (twice) and eight assists.

Because of injuries, he played in only 39 games in 2016-17 -- his 10th season in the NBA -- and averaged 7.2 points, 2.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists. A strained patellar tendon led to his being waived by the Pacers on March 29, 2017.

Stuckey is EWU’s highest draft pick ever (three through 2018-19), and at the time was the second-highest selection in the now more than 50-year history of the Big Sky Conference Eastern’s only previous NBA draftee before Studkey was Ron Cox, a sixth-round draft choice by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1977. Although he never played a game in the NBA, Cox was EWU’s all-time leading scorer for nearly 40 years with 1,741 points, as Stuckey finished fourth in school history at the time with 1,438 points. Tyler Harvey was picked in the second round by Orlando in the 2015 draft (51st overall) after a three-year career in which he surpassed Stuckey with 1,564 points.

The only other first-round draft choice in the history of the Big Sky Conference was Michael Ray Richardson from Montana. He was the fourth pick overall by the New York Knickerbockers in 1978. In 2012, Damian Lillard of Weber State was drafted as the sixth pick overall by Portland.

A 2004 graduate of Kentwood High School in Kent, Wash., Stuckey was an All-American at Eastern – both athletically and academically – after averaging 24 points per game in each of his two seasons. He helped EWU win 30 games in two seasons and had a 3.34 grade point average.

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 Magician on the Court, Tyler Harvey Drafted in NBA by Orlando Former Eagle megastar is chosen in the second round as the 51st pick overall

A

fter performing his magic act at Reese Court for three seasons, Tyler Harvey made the transition from Eagle to professional.

Now playing professionally overseas, the former Eagle sharpshooter was selected by the Orlando Magic in the second round as the 51st pick overall of the National Basketball Association Draft on June 25 in Brooklyn, N.Y. In his first taste of the NBA during the Orland Pro Summer League, Harvey led the Magic’s Blue summer squad with 24 points and five assists in his first start in their 9185 loss to the Indiana Pacers. He made 4-of-7 from three-point range in the game, and averaged 10.6 points, 2.0 assists and 1.4 rebounds in the five total games he played.

He then played the 2015-16 season for the Erie Bay Hawks in the NBA Developmental League, and averaged 11.9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game in 37 games. He made 80-of-231 3-pointers for 34.6 percent, and 54-of-68 free throws for 79.4 percent. He led Erie to an improbable 125-120 victory over the Texas Legends on Dec. 29, 2015, when he made nine 3-pointers in the fourth quarter and two overtimes. He finished with 29 points as the Bay Hawks ralllied from a 22-point deficit entering the fourth quarter.

Harvey elected to skip his senior season at Eastern for the chance to play in the NBA. After declaring for the draft on April 1, Harvey had workouts with many NBA teams, and also participated in the National Basketball Association Draft Combine in Chicago from May 12-17.

Harvey was a walk-on to the Eastern program in the fall of 2011 EWU head coach Jim Hayford’s first year as head coach. After a redshirt season and playing sparingly in EWU’s first 13 games, he was a high-scoring mainstay for the Eagles in the final 71 games of his 84-game career (67 as a starter). He led NCAA Division I in scoring (23.1) and 3-pointers made per game (4.00) in the 2014-15 season.

Rodney Stuckey, who spent 10 seasons in the NBA, was drafted 15th overall by the Detroit Pistons in the 2007 NBA Draft, where he spent his first seven seasons as a pro before moving to the Indiana Pacers for the 2014-15 season. Besides Stuckey, Ron Cox is the only previous NBA draftee from Eastern.

He was a sixth-round draft choice by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 1977, but did not play in a regular season NBA game because of reconstructive surgery on his left ankle.

Harvey was the first Big Sky Conference draft choice since Weber State’s Damian Lillard was selected sixth overall by the Portland Trailblazers in the first round in 2012.

Because of Harvey’s early departure, Cox remained Eastern’s all-time leading scorer a bit longer. He had 1,741 points from 1974-77, with Harvey right behind with 1,564.

Stuckey scored 1,438 in two seasons, including 726 in 2006 to set the school record broken by Harvey with 738 in the 2014-15 season. That was broken three seasons later by Bogdan Bliznyuk with 741. The career record fell in 2015-16 when Venky Jois finished with 1,803 points, and then Bliznyuk broke that with a Big Sky record of 2,169 points.

More About Harvey . . .

• Tyler Harvey was selected by Associated Press as an honorable mention All-America selection after his record-breaking season as the leading scorer in NCAA Division I. He became the third player in EWU’s 32 seasons as a member of NCAA Division I to earn honorable mention All-America honors from Associated Press. Alvin Snow was the first in 2004, and Rodney Stuckey was chosen in 2006 and 2007.

• He was also a repeat member of the National Association of Basketball Coaches AllDistrict 6 squad – earning first team accolades after second team honors as a sophomore.

• Harvey was also one of 16 finalists for the Jerry West Shooting Guard of the Year, and is also one of 31 finalists for the Lou Henson Award given to the nation’s top mid-major player.

As a result, he was recognized on the Lou Henson All-America team.

• In addition, Harvey was a first team selection on the All-Big Sky Conference team for the second-straight season. He helped the Eagles close the year 26-9 on the season after finishing 14-4 in the Big Sky Conference to share the regular season title with Montana. Eastern swept through three games in the Big Sky Conference Tournament to garner the school’s second NCAA Tournament appearance in school history. The Eagles finished with program bests for victories overall (26), in the Big Sky (14), on the road (11) and in non-conference play (9) in 32 seasons as a member of NCAA Division I. • Harvey was selected as a first team selection on the 2014-15 Academic All-America® team for NCAA Division I as selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Harvey was one of five players to be named to the first team, and is EWU’s initial first team selection in school history. He had a 3.60 grade point average as a communications studies major. On Feb. 25, 2015, Harvey was the recipient of a “Keeper of the Dream” award from EWU’s Africana Studies department.

• Harvey led NCAA Division I in scoring (23.1 points per game) and 3-pointers per game (4.00), and was 14th in 3-point shooting percentage (43.1 percent) and 44th in free throw percentage (.852).

• Harvey closed the year with Big Sky and EWU single season records for season 3-pointers with 128. His 738 points were a school record and ranked fourth in league history at the time.

• In addition, Harvey was selected as the MVP of the Big Sky Conference Tournament after averaging 23.0 points, 2.7 assists and 2.0 steals per game in three games while making 10-of24 3-point shots (41.7 percent) and 22-of-43 overall (51.2 percent).

• In equaling the Big Sky Tournament record with 42 points against Idaho, Harvey had his fifth game of the season and 11th of his career with at least 30 points, and his 40th-straight game scoring in double figures (snapped when he scored nine versus Sacramento State the next night). His 42 at the time ranked third in school history behind the 45 of Rodney Stuckey (versus Northern Arizona on 1/5/06) and 44 of David Peed (versus UC Irvine on 12/13/88).

His 42 points tied the tourney record of 42 set by Anthony Johnson of Montana in 2010, and passed the 38 Stuckey had versus Portland State in 2006.

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 A record more than two months in the making, Bogdan Bliznyuk set a new NCAA Division I single season record for consecutive free throws made on March 3, 2018, in EWU’s regular season finale against Northern Arizona at Reese Court. Bliznyuk made all six of his free throws, including a pressure-packed, recordbreaking pair with 3:46 left in the Senior Day game to give him 74 and break the NCAA Division I single season record of 73 set by Gary Buchanan from Villanova over a 21-game stretch in the 2000-01 season.

His 74th is pictured. Bliznyuk sank his first three versus Portland State on March 8 before missing, ending the record at 77 in a span of 18 games dating back to EWU’s game at North Dakota on Dec. 31, The Big Sky Conference MVP finished 78-of-79 during conference play (98.7 percent), but came up short of the career record of 85-straight free throws between Feb. 15, 2001, and Jan. 18, 2003, by Darnell Archey from Butler during a 57-game stretch. Bliznyuk finished the year making a school-record 90.2 percent to rank second in the Big Sky and 12th in Division I, and his career mark of 84.0 percent ranked third at EWU all-time.

In 55 Years of the Big Sky Conference, 2,169 Points by Bogdan Bliznyuk is No. 1 BOGDAN BLIZNYUK was the 2017-18 Big Sky Conference MVP, a first team All-District 6 selection by the Natonal Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) and an honorable mention All-America selection by Associated Press. He finished his career with 2,169 points, passing the record of 2,102 set by Orlando Lightfoot from Idaho in three seasons from 1991-94. Bliznyuk achieved the record on March 9 in a 32-point effort in the semifinals of the Big Sky Conference Tournament. “It’s definitely an honor and there have been a lot of great players in this conference,” said Bliznyuk after the record fell.

Bliznyuk was just the fifth player in the then 55-year history of the league to hit the 2,000-point mark. But his record lasted just 316 days before being broken by Montana State’s Tyler Hall (2,518). Hall broke the record on EWU’s home court in Cheney on Jan. 19, 2019, but EWU won the game 85-81.

In his 138th and final game of his career, Bliznyuk tied EWU’s single season scoring record with 50 seconds left, then broke it with a 3-pointer on the last shot of his illustrious career with 20 ticks remaining. Bliznyuk, the Big Sky’s all-time leading scorer with 2,169 points, finished with 741 as a senior to rank sixth in league history and break the previous school record of 738 set three years earlier by Tyler Harvey. In setting a total of 16 school records, Bliznyuk scored 27 points in the 138th and final game of his career – the 44th time he scored at least 20 and his 100th double-digit performance. He closed his career with the NCAA Division I single season free throw record with 77-straight makes, three league marks, nine Big Sky Tournament records, 16 school records and the utmost respect from his head coach.

“I love Tyler to death, but I wasn’t about to let Bogdan go without that record,” said SHANTAY LEGANS. “Bogdan is going to understand some day how much he accomplished. It was probably the best single season a player has had at Eastern Washington and probably the best career – he’s going to be in the record books a long time.”

In his senior season, Bliznyuk made 52.8 percent of his field goals and 90.2 percent of his free throws (second in the Big Sky, 12th in NCAA Division I) to average 21.2 points (third, 23rd nationally) in 35 games. He also averaged 6.8 rebounds and 3.9 assists to rank as the only player in the league to be in the top 15 in scoring, rebounding and assists – he was actually in the top six in all three. Along with teammate Sir Washington, Bliznyuk finished as the winningest Eastern player in the school’s NCAA Division I history with 86 victories overall and 50 league wins in four seasons. He helped lead the Eagles to national postseason tournaments in each of his four seasons, including the NCAA Tournament in 2015 and the College Basketball Invitational in 2016, 2017 and 2018. Bliznyuk earned first team All-Big Sky honors in 2018, was a second team choice in 2017 and was the league’s Freshman of the Year in 2015.

Bliznyuk had two games of at least 40 points and 13 with at least 30, including the school record scoring total of 45 set as a junior. He had 10 or more rebounds 20 times and double figures in assists on three occasions, with 21 total double-doubles (17-4 record). Plus, he had the lone triple-double in school history as a sophomore. On nine other occasions an Eastern player has flirted with a triple-double (within a combined total of three rebounds and/or assists), including four by Bliznyuk, three by Drew Brandon and one each by Rodney Stuckey and Justin Crosgile.

Before Signing With the Brooklyn Nets in the NBA, Jacob Wiley Receives AP Honorable Mention All-America Honors in His Only Season as an Eagle JACOB WILEY was the best kind of a “one-and-done” college basketball player, and received a contract in the National Basketball Association to cap it. The graduate transfer concluded an incredible senior season when he was named by Associated Press as an honorable mention All-America selection in the 2016-17 season. He became just the fourth Eagle to earn that honor in 34 seasons as a member of NCAA Division I. Less than a month after the conclusion of the season, Wiley was married on April 8, then headed for Portsmouth, Va., for the 65th-Annual Portsmouth Invitational Tournament. The PIT featured 64 of the nation’s top college seniors competing in a four-day, 12-game event in front of team representatives throughout the National Basketball Association. The 2012 tournament took place April 12-15 at Churchland High School, and Wiley averaged 27.2 minutes, 17.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 1.7 blocks in three games.

His performance in Portsmouth opened the door for numerous workouts with NBA teams in preparation for the NBA Draft. Although he was not chosen, he signed a two-way contract to play with the Brooklyn Nets and the team’s NBA G League affiliate, the Long Island Nets. He averaged 6.6 minutes per game in his five games with Brooklyn, scoring four points and grabbing 11 rebounds. He scored all four of the points and eight of the rebounds in 21 minutes of action against Denver on Nov. 7, 2017. He made his regular season NBA debut versus Denver on Oct. 29, 2017. He then averaged 7.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists for Long Island, including a season-high 20 in his first game on Nov. 16, 2017. Wiley scored in double figures five times, and had a season-high seven rebounds on Jan. 2, 2018. Wiley also played with the Nets during the 2017 NBA Summer League, averaging 15.6 minutes, 2.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 0.5 blocked shots in the team’s four games in Las Vegas. A foot injury ended his 2017-18 season and subsequently he was released, but he played in the 2018 NBA Summer League in Las Vegas for the Dallas Mavericks. He played most of the 2018-19 season in Australia and is now playing in Greece.

Wiley was selected as the MVP of the Big Sky Conference in his lone season as an Eagle, and went on to earn first team All-District 6 honors from the National Association of Basketball Coaches, and was a MidMajor All-American as a finalist for the Lou Henson Award presented by Collegeinsider.com. Wiley made Big Sky as a senior by becoming just the second player in league history to score at least 639 points and have at least 303 rebounds in a single season in the league’s 54-year existence. He finished with totals of 694 and 309, respectively, and no other player in league history has coupled that with at least 58 blocks (Wiley finished with 94 to come one shy of the league record) or a shooting percentage of at least .621 (Wiley finished at .643). Montana’s Larry Krystkowiak (now head coach at Utah) is the other player to have at least 639/303 in the same year, and he had 709 points and 364 rebounds in the 1985-86 season.

Wiley finished the season ranked sixth in NCAA Division I in field goal percentage (.643), eighth in blocked shots (2.76 per game), 29th in scoring (20.4), 48th in rebounds (9.1) and 112th in free throw percentage (.828). En route to earning league MVP honors, he led the Big Sky in field goal percentage, rebounds and scoring, and was sixth in scoring. In league-only statistics, Wiley led in scoring (24.6), rebounding (10.3), blocked shots (2.5) and field goal percentage (.659).

He was also honored twice on the National Association of Basketball Coaches Association All-District 6 squad, earning first team honors as a junior and second team as a senior. He was also an AllTournament choice at the the 2015 Big Sky Conference Tournament when Eastern won three games, including a come-from-behind victory over host Montana to advance to the school’s second NCAA Tournament.

RON COX, who earned All-America recognition all four seasons he played basketball for Eastern, had his No. 30 jersey retired in ceremonies taking place March 8, 2014, at Reese Court in Cheney, Wash. Current Detroit Piston Rodney Stuckey is the only other Eastern player to have his jersey retired, and Cox’s No. 30 now hangs next to No. 3. Formerly from nearby Coulee City, Wash., Cox played four seasons for the Eagles from 1973-77. He had record totals of 1,741 points and 1,273 rebounds in leading Eastern to a 77-30 record and three Evergreen Conference titles. In his first two years playing for head coach Jerry Krause, the Eagles played in Memorial Fieldhouse along the East side of Washington Street. But the Special Events Center opened across the street in fall of 1975, and his final two seasons were played in the new facility (later additionally named Reese Court). In his senior season in 1976-77, Cox helped Eastern start a school-record 31-game home winning streak, which would continue until Dec. 8, 1978. Cox received his bachelor’s degree at Eastern in 1978 and his master’s degree in 1995. Drafted in the sixth round of the 1977 NBA draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers, a foot injury ended his professional career before it even started. Cox went on to a highly-successful high school coaching career which included 388 victories in 26 seasons. He retired from coaching, but returned to Lakeside High School as head coach for the 2015-16 season. He was inducted into the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame in 1998, and the 1976-77 team which finished 25-4 was inducted in 2016.

Cox was admitted to the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association Hall of Fame in 2011 and the Inland Northwest Hall of Fame in 2019. The 1976-77 team he played on was inducted into the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame in 2016. He was honored in 2017 as Eastern’s “Legend of the Game” as part of EWU’s participation in the annual Legends Classic Basketball Tournament.

Inducted into the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame in 2014, JACK PERRAULT scored 507 points in the 1944-45 season for Eastern to rank second nationally. He held the school’s single season scoring record for 26 years until it was broken by Randy Buss with 521 in 1970-71. Perrault lettered from 1942-45, and played in the NAIA Tournament three of those years (the tournament was not held in 1944). He helped lead Eastern to a 91-25 record (.784).

SIR WASHINGTON joined BOGDAN BLIZNYUK as EWU’s winningest players in EWU’s 35-year history as a member of NCAA Division I. They won 86 games overall and 50 in the Big Sky Conference, and led the Eagles to national postseason tournaments in four seasons.

Senior JACOB WILEY (left) and BOGDAN BLIZNYUK combined for 90 points in EWU’s 130-124 triple-overtime win over Portland State on Feb. 4, 2017, to easily set school and Big Sky Conference records. Their performance came just two points from the NCAA Division I mark of 92 set by Kevin Bradshaw (72) & Isaac Brown (20) for U.S. International (now Alliant International) vs. Loyala Marymount on Jan. 5, 1991. Interestingly, they combined for 68 (Bradshaw 37, Brown 31) in a 118-83 loss to Eastern on Feb. 2, 1991, and 39 the year before (Bradshaw 30, Brown 9) in a 102-93 victory over EWU on Dec. 21, 1989. When Bliznyuk and Wiley both scored 45 versus PSU, it was the first time in NCAA history two players have scored at least 45 points in the same game. Notre Dame had two players also score 90 on Feb. 23, 1970, in a 121-114 non-overtime win over Butler (Austin Carr with 50 and Collis James with 40). Loyola Marymount’s Bo Kimble and the late Hank Gathers each scored 40 against Gonzaga in 1989, and the Bulldogs also had a 40-point scorer in that game, Doug Spradley.

On Feb. 20, 1971, Idaho State’s Willie Humes scored 58 points and MSU’s Bill Brickhouse and Willie Weeks each scored 38 in a 105-92 Bobcat win, also in regulation.

FELIX VON HOFE set the school record for games played and broke EWU’s 3-pointers made record in the final game of his career. Von Hofe moved up to sixth in career 3-pointers in the Big Sky Conference with 262, and broke the previous school record of 260 set by his former teammate Tyler Harvey from 2013-15. Von Hofe also broke the school record with 657 attempts (breaking Harvey’s record of 602), and his percentage of .399 was 12th. Von Hofe was the 21st Eagle to join the 1,000-point club, and finished his career ranked 18th with 1,058 career points.

Von Hofe came to Eastern from Melbourne, Australia, and attended Wesley College and the Australian Institute of Sport prior to coming to the United States.

EAGLES CENTURY CLUB (Total of 74 Games With 100+ Points . . . 2015-16 and 2006-07 are the only seasons in 33 years as a member of NCAA Division I that Eastern has scored at least 100 points in four games. The overall record for 100-point performances is eight set in the 1970-71 season)

BOGDAN BLIZNYUK had the first triple-double in school history with 11 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists in a 96-73 victory over Northern Arizona on Jan. 16, 2016.

He made 4-of-12 shots from the field and both of his free throws, and also had three blocked shots. Not even Rodney Stuckey, now of the Indiana Pacers, or former All-Big Sky point guard Drew Brandon, were able to register the rare feat. On nine occasions an Eastern player has flirted with a triple-double (within a combined total of three rebounds and/or assists), including four by Bliznyuk, three by Brandon and one each by Stuckey and Justin Crosgile.

RONN McMAHON is one of the newest former men’s basketball players to be inducted into the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame. Honored in 2017, McMahon was one of the top point guards in NCAA Division I as a senior in the 198990 season when he helped Eastern to an 18-11 record and runner-up finishes in the Big Sky Conference regular season and tournament. His school records of 130 steals and 4.48 average in 1990, as well as his 3.52 career average, all still rank among the top performances in NCAA history.

Legans Has Most Wins for a Rookie Head Coach at Eastern in 75 Years Shantay Legans is the 18th coach in Eastern history, and made history of his own in his debut season . His 20 wins are the most by a first-year Eastern coach in EWU’s NCAA Division I era, besting Ray Giacoletti with 17 in the 2000-01 season. Joe Folda also won 17 games in 198283 as an interim head coach during Eastern’s rise from NAIA to NCAA Division I. Thus, you have to go back to the 1942-43 season when Bob Brumblay won 27 games in his debut season to find a rookie Eastern coach with more than 18 victories, which is also the only time it’s happened.

Among the victories was a 67-61 triumph at Stanford to break EWU’s 21-game losing streak versus Pacific-12 Conference foes. Interestingly, he played for California for three seasons from 2000-03 and the Bears lost to the Cardinal in all five meetings.

Legans was an Eastern assistant for eight years before becoming EWU’s 10th coach at the NCAA Division I level. Legans spent six years on the staff of Jim Hayford (now head coach at Seattle), and two previous seasons under former head coach Kirk Earlywine (now an assistant at Idaho). Legans was associate head coach under Hayford for the final three of those eight seasons.

He has been a part of Eastern teams from the 2013-14 through 2018-19 seasons which have win totals of 15, 26, 18, 22, 20 and 16 games. The three 20-victory seasons are among the top four win totals in EWU’s 35-year history in NCAA Division I. The combined 117 victories in six years, 101 wins in five seasons, 86 victories in four seasons, 66 in three and 44 in two are also the most since EWU became a member of NCAA Division I in the 1983-84 season. The same can be said of EWU’s stretch of league victories -- 10, 14, 10, 13, 13, 12 -- in that six-year span.

A former player at Cal and Fresno State, Legans is married to former Eastern women’s basketball player Tatjana Sparavalo. Their daughter, Zola Lee, was born June 16, 2016, and their son, Maksim (Mak) Lee, was born March 23, 2018.

Eagles in the Big Sky Tournament

• In 2013-14, the Eagles were 15-16 overall and missed the Big Sky Conference Tournament with a 10-10 league mark. Interestingly, Sacramento State was also 10-10, but secured the final bid because of a tiebreaker advantage over EWU, which dropped its final game of the season to Weber State 82-78.

• Eastern has made 17 Big Sky Conference Tournament appearances in 32 years as a member of the league, and has a record of 17-15 in its 32 games. The Eagles are 1-0 in the first round, 6-5 in the quarterfinals, 8-4 in the semifinals and 2-6 in the championship. Before winning the 2015 title, Eastern hadn’t appeared since the 2011-12 and 2010-11 seasons, which were EWU’s first since 2006. The Eagles qualified for each tournament from 1998-2006.

• Eastern won Big Sky Conference Tournament championships and appeared in the NCAA Tournament in 2015 & 2004. The Eagles have also advanced to the National Invitation Tournament in 2003 and the College Basketball Invitational in 2016 and 2017.

Eastern registered the school’s first NCAA Division I postseason win with a 79-72 victory over Pepperdine in the first round of the CBI in 2016.

• Eastern’s 2014-15 squad won the title and advanced to the NCAA Tournament with a trio of victories in Missoula, Montana. Included was a come-from-behind 69-65 over the host Grizzlies in the championship game.

• Before beating Montana for the 2015 title, Eastern had ended its season with losses to the Grizzlies in appearances in 2012, 2006 and 2005. But the year before, in 2004, EWU won the title with a 71-59 championship game victory over Northern Arizona to advance to the school’s first-ever NCAA Tournament (EWU made its first-ever NIT appearance in 2003).

• Although its streak of Big Sky tournament berths came to an end in the 2006-07 season, at the time Eastern was just the fifth school in league history to make nine-straight appearances in the Big Sky Conference Tournament. Eastern started the streak back in 1998 after making just one trip to the tourney in their first 10 seasons as a member of the conference. Interestingly, Montana’s 77-69 victory over the Lumberjacks on Feb. 28, 2005, extended Eastern’s streak and ended NAU’s eight-season streak. Eastern’s streak started in 1998 with an end-of-year victory at Montana. That “winner advance, loser eliminated” game ended Montana’s 21-year streak.

• In 2011, Eastern’s season came to an end with a 79-70 loss at Weber State in the quarterfinal round of the tournament. That came just three days after the Eagles stunned WSU on their home court 75-59 to end the regular season. Because of the upset, the Wildcats lost their chance at a first-round bye and had to face the Eagles again. In the rematch, WSU outscored EWU 46-25 in the second half as the Wildcats overcame a 12-point EWU halftime lead

The 1945-46 (top) and 1949-50 men’s basketball teams have been inducted into the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame (in 2003 and 2011, respectively). The ‘45-46 team was coached by RED REESE and led

by IRV LEIFER, and both were inaugural members of the Hall. Eastern advanced to the quarterfinals of the NAIA Tournament and had a school-recod 31 wins (31-4). The ‘49-50 team finished 23-7 and was also coached by Reese, who called the team “my best basketball club” despite just missing a berth in the NAIA Tournament.

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 Eagles in National Postseason Tournaments In the 2017-18 season, Eastern made its sixth appearance in a national postseason tournament in school history and fourth-in-a-row. Eastern advanced to the NCAA Tournament in 2004 and 2015, were in the NIT in 2003 and have played in the last three College Basketball Invitational (CBI) tournaments in 2016, 2017 and 2018. In the 2016 CBI, Eastern recorded its first win in a national postseason tournament as a member of Division I with a 79-72 home win over Pepperdine. The Eagles are now 1-5 in postseason national tournaments as a member of NCAA Division I, and 7-10 overall.

Eastern also played in the NAIA Championships (then known as NAIB) on five occasions, with a 6-5 record in appearances in 1942, 1943, 1945, 1946 and 1947. Before beating Pepperdine in 2016, Eastern’s previous national tournament victory came on March 12, 1947, when Eastern – then known as the Eastern Washington College of Education Savages – beat Dakota Wesleyan 62-48. One year earlier, Eastern lost to Pepperdine before meeting the Waves again for the second time in school history nearly 70 years to the day later in the CIT. Here is a list of Eastern’s all-time games in National Postseason Tournaments as a member of NCAA Division I (1-6) . . .

EWU’s NCAA TOURNAMENT TEAMS The 2003-04 and 2014-15 men’s basketball teams both advanced to the NCAA Tournament.

After a 3-9 start in 2004, Eastern won the Big Sky regular season title and hosted the tournament at Reese Court. The Eagles, coached by RAY GIACOLETTI, rolled past Weber State and Northern Arizona before falling to Oklahoma State 75-56 in the Big Dance.

Eleven years later under JIM HAYFORD, Eastern was 26-9 and won the Big Sky Conference Tournament title by winning three games on back-to-back-to-back nights in Missoula Mont. In the title game, Eastern rallied from 11 points down with six minutes to play to stun host Montana 69-65. The Eagles, who earlier in the season snapped the nation’s thirdlongest non-conference home court winning streak at 43 by beating Indiana, fell to Georgetown 84-79 in the NCAA Tourney.

EAGLE MEN’S BASKETBALL 2019-20 Alvin Snow Becomes Newest Legend Voted Into Hall of Fame Groundbreaking former Eagle men’s basketball player ALVIN SNOW became a member of the Eastern Athletics Hall of Fame in ceremonies which took place on Sept. 22, 2018, at EWU. He was Eastern’s first basketball All-American at the NCAA Division I level – and the school’s first Big Sky Conference MVP in the sport.

“Alvin was the first guy to buy into what we were doing here,” said former EWU head caoch RAY GIACOLETTI of the four seasons they spent together at EWU from 2000-2004. “He was a mainstay here, and was kind of the heart and soul of our team. His versatility and all the things he contributed is what separated him from other players and earned him the honors he received.”

Bringing an incredible competitive fire and drive with him from Franklin High School in Seattle, Wash., Snow helped Eastern win 69 games with a NIT appearance in 2003 followed by the school’s first Big Sky Conference Tournament title and NCAA Tournament berth in 2004. He had 1,396 points, 212 steals and 318 assists in 118 games as an Eagle and was one of just 17 players in league history (now 20) to win first team All-Big Sky honors three seasons. He was the league’s MVP in 2004 when he earned honorable mention All-America honors, and was also the Big Sky 2002 Defensive Player of the Year.

“My time at Eastern was amazing,” Snow said “On an individual, personal level, I had to learn to play the game a little differently than where I came from. So that prepared me for the professional level. And I’m grateful for that.”

He played professionally for more than 10 years, and he works in Seattle is a player representative for Worldwide Sports Management. His mission is to carry out the tradition of his hometown and home state, while finding unique ways to help kids and adults alike to push for greatness and elevate themselves and each other. He currently represents several former Big Sky players, including former Eagle Jacob Wiley, who played for the Brooklyn Nets of the NBA and the Long Island Nets of the NBA G League in 2017-18.

Snow credits his mother, Sherri Charleston, for being his inspiration throughout his life on and off the basketball court. Plus, he calls his son, Christian Snow, his motivation to “work daily towards becoming the greatest version of myself that I can.”
