Head Coach Pat Flannery
Flannery and the Bison program have lived up
to those high expectations. He has created an
atmosphere in which his players have been successful and he is again giving back to the school
that gave him an opportunity in 1976.
After three straight 20-win seasons — a
first in Bucknell annals — his career record now
stands at 317-202 (.611) overall and 222-159
(.583) at Bucknell.
Flannery began his coaching career at
Bucknell in 1994-95 by guiding the Bison to
an 11-3 final league mark and earning Patriot
League Coach of the Year honors. He was the
first Patriot League coach to earn such honors in
his opening season with a program. The award
was especially sweet for Flannery, considering
the Bison had opened the year 0-8, before winning 13 of their final 19 games to collect a share
of the regular season title.
In 1995-96, Bucknell was again solid in
league play, going 8-4 in Patriot games, and
finishing the season with an overall record of
17-11. Included in those 17 wins was one of
the school’s biggest victories of all time, when
the Bison knocked off Alabama, 72-64, at the
Cessna Holiday Classic at Wichita State.
Flannery earned Patriot League Coach of
the Year honors for the second time in 1996-97,
after directing his squad to an 18-11 overall
record, a 9-3 league mark and a berth in the
league championship game. Non-league victories at Princeton and Air Force, plus a pair of
wins over defending PL champ Colgate were
but a few of the highlights from that magnificent campaign. Bucknell was one of just four
schools (joining California, Indiana and North
Carolina) to knock off Princeton in 1996-97.
In 1997-98, Bucknell slipped to 13-15 overall, due in large part to a grueling non-league
schedule that included games against Iowa,
Penn State, Princeton and Pittsburgh. Within
the league, the Bison were again solid at 8-4.
His 1998-99 team started slowly, but turned
it on down the stretch, winning 13 of its last 16
games before falling to Lafayette in the Patriot
League championship game, 67-63. The Bison
were 9-3 in the PL during the regular season.
The 2003-04 squad featured one of the
youngest lineups in school history with three

Coaches Versus Cancer, a program sponsored
by the NABC and the American Cancer Society
which raises money for cancer research, education, and patient services. The Bison, in fact,
played in the CVC Classic for the first time in
2005 at Syracuse’s Carrier Dome.
Under Flannery, the Bison have played a
very active role in the community. The team
has volunteered its time to Central Pennsylvania
youth basketball organizations, the Donald
Heiter Community Center in Lewisburg and
the Janet Weis Children’s Hospital at Geisinger
Medical Center.
In January 2003, Flannery for the second
time took his team to his hometown of Pottsville to play at historic Martz Hall. The Bison
played Penn there in 1997, and in 2003 hosted
Niagara on the floor where Flannery played
his prep ball. Dubbed the Kids Classic, the
game raised funds for youth basketball in the
Pottsville area.
Flannery has also taken three Bucknell
teams on summer overseas tours. In 1996 Bucknell went to Denmark and Sweden, in 2000 the
team visited Italy and Croatia, and in 2005 the
squad toured Ireland and England.

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

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING
The strength and conditioning program at
Bucknell received a major boost in 2003 with the
completion of the Krebs Family Fitness Center
and Berger Family Weight Room, as well as the
hiring of Jerry Shreck as the program’s first fulltime strength and conditioning coordinator.
A 1996 graduate of East Stroudsburg University with a degree in movement studies and
exercise science, Shreck is charged with implementing detailed daily strength and conditionJERRY SHRECK
ing routines for each of Bucknell’s programs.
The general philosophy of the Bison
strength program is year-round periodization with a high-intensity
base, supplemented with functional and sport-specific training. Training
programs for most teams will employ explosion techniques with power
bands and pliometrics.
The ultimate goal of the strength and conditioning program is the
prevention of injuries and training athletes to their peak physical condition
(as opposed to training bodybuilders).
A native of nearby Montgomery, Pa., Shreck previously served as the
athletic trainer for the Bucknell men’s basketball team for three seasons.
He is a member of the National Strength and Conditioning Association and
the National Council of Strength and Fitness.

JAY WRIGHT HAS WILDCATS THRIVING
BISON WELL-REPRESENTED OVERSEAS
Under the direction of 1983 Bucknell graduate Jay Wright, the Villanova
men’s basketball team has returned to glory as one of the nation’s elite teams.
In 2005-06, Wright’s Wildcats won a school-record 28 games, captured the Big
East regular-season title, earned the program’s first-ever NCAA Tournament No.
1 seed, and advanced to the Elite Eight.
Wright was a three-year letterman in basketball at Bucknell, where he
received the Kribbs Award as team MVP in
1981-82 and the Musser Award for leadership
in 1982-83. Wright was a freshman at Bucknell
when current Bison coach Pat Flannery was
a senior, and the two were publicly reunited
in December 2005 when Wright brought his
fourth-ranked Wildcats to Sojka Pavilion to play
in front of the largest crowd in school history.
Villanova prevailed, 79-60.
Before arriving at Villanova in 2001, Wright
was head coach at Hofstra for seven seasons,
where he led the Pride to a pair of America
East titles. He has also been an assistant coach
at Villanova and UNLV.
In August 2005 he served as head coach of
the gold medal-winning U.S. team at the World
University Games in Turkey. Wright was named
USA Basketball Co-Developmental Coach of the
Year after leading the U.S. to an 8-0 record.
While J.R. Holden ‘98 and Charles Lee ‘06 have made the biggest splashes
among Bucknell graduates in the professional ranks (see p. 36 for more on
Holden’s amazing story), the Bison have sent numerous players overseas to
continue their basketball careers.
Among them are pair of 2007 graduates who inked pro contracts over
the summer. Chris McNaughton and Donald Brown signed with clubs in Spain
and Iceland, respectively. Interestingly, one of McNaughton’s first games for
his new team — C.B. L’Hospitalet in Barcelona — came against a familiar foe
in Holy Cross, which was winding up a summer
overseas tour in Spain. McNaughton had 10
points in a victory over the Crusaders.
Another 2007 graduate, point guard Abe
Badmus, returned to the Nigerian National Team
for the FIBA Africa Cup this summer. Badmus
started the team’s first two games — a 109-35
rout of Liberia and a 77-54 win over Central
African Republic — but suffered an injury and
did not compete the rest of the tournament.
Former Bison all-stars Boakai Lalugba ‘03
and Bryan Bailey ‘02 are also still active in the
European professional ranks. Lalugba will play
for Bourg in France this season after previous
stops in Sweden and Finland. Bailey played last
J.R. Holden
season with Artland Dragons Quakenbruek in
Germany.

Community & Alumni Relations
BISON GIVE BACK TO THE LEWISBURG COMMUNITY
Head coach Pat Flannery believes very strongly in lending a helping hand to those less fortunate, and he and his staff have kept the Bison
basketball team extremely active in the community over the past decade-plus. Whether it’s visiting sick children at a local hospital, raising money
for the September 11 disaster relief fund, or running clinics for local youths, the Bucknell basketball program is proud to return the favor for the
fantastic support the Lewisburg community has shown the Bison through the years.
The team has made it a tradition to pay a Halloween visit to the Janet Weis Children’s Hospital at the Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, Pa.,
each fall. The coaching staff and a host of Bison players make the trip to the hospital to lift the spirits of the children they spend time with. For the
players, the experience is both eye-opening and gratifying.
In addition to the hospital, the Bucknell basketball team spends time with the children at the local elementary and middle schools, and at the
Heiter Community Center in Lewisburg. Coach Flannery also invites youth basketball teams from all over the region to come to Sojka Pavilion and
“strut their stuff ” for the crowd during halftimes of the Bucknell games. Bison players and
coaches have also served Thanksgiving meals at the Heiter Center in recent years.
In the wake of the horrific attacks on New York City, Washington, D.C., and Western
Pennsylvania, the team sold T-shirts that featured the Bucknell Basketball insiginia and
the American flag.
In 2008 the Bison will host the Fourth Annual Dirk Sojka Slam Dunk with Bison
Basketball, with proceeds benefitting Suncom Industries, where persons with disabilities
learn to reach their full potential. Suncom was the workplace of Dirk Sojka, son of Gary
and Sandy Sojka, until Dirk’s passing in July 2002.
Flannery and his staff also place great emphasis on alumni relations, keeping
former Bison players in the
Bucknell Basketball family. The
annual summer golf tournament
is one of several events geared
toward alums and supporters of
Midnite Mania — always a spirited
the program. This past summer,
event
more than 100 golfers participated in the event. A fall alumni
family weekend and an annual
alumni game are also regular
functions.
Last season, the 1986-87
team was honored on the 20th
The 1987 team was honored last season on the 20th anniversary

Suncom Industries workers are all smiles at the 2006
“Dirk Sojka Slam Dunk with Bison Basketball.”
Competitors prepare for the annual Bison Golf Classic.
Coach Pat Flannery makes his farewell speech to summer campers
in Sojka Pavilion.
Abe Badmus presents Lee Felsburg with the 2007 Backcourt Club Award,
given for loyalty and friendship to the program.
