Bison Good Sports In 2006, the Bucknell Department of Athletics and Recreation announced its new “Bison Good Sports!” campaign, a sportsmanship awareness program designed to promote appropriate fan conduct at all Bison sporting events.

The objective of the campaign, according to Bucknell director of athletics and recreation John Hardt “is to thank fans for the tremendous energy and enthusiasm they bring to each Bucknell athletics contest while also empowering them as caretakers of the collegiate gameday experience. While the extremes of unwanted behavior and its impact on home and visiting fans are not commonplace at Bison athletics events, Bucknell and our visiting teams ask for our fans’ help in keeping their support of our teams positive and cheer with positive encouragement, rather than supporting an atmosphere of intimidation that attempts to degrade opposing players and teams. We hope that our fans will continue to join our players, coaches and staff in helping all spectators find creative and ingenious ways to positively support our Bucknell student-athletes.”

Being a Bison

www.BucknellBison.com

What it means to

be a bison

“I feel blessed to be playing field hockey at a strong academic institution like Bucknell. Very few schools combine Division I athletics with the high academic standards expected here at Bucknell. Not only do I have the opportunity to excel at a sport I truly love, but I also find that the lessons I learn on the turf can be extended to my academic pursuits.

Lessons in hard work, teamwork and time management have made me a much stronger student. The support of coaches and professors, who firmly believe that the college experience should be a blend of diverse activities is what enables the Bucknell scholar-athlete to thrive.

For me, Bucknell provides the perfect combination of academics and athletics.”

- ESPN The Magazine Academic AllDistrict selection and 2009 Captain Sarah Ebright

Patriot League/Mission Statement

In its second decade of combining academic and athletic excellence, the Patriot League sponsors championships in 23 men and women’s sports. Initially started as an NCAA Division I-AA football conference in 1986, the Patriot League became an all-sport conference in 1990 and includes American, Army, Bucknell, Colgate, Holy Cross, Lafayette, Lehigh and Navy as full members, and Fordham and Georgetown as associate members. These institutions are among the oldest and most prestigious in the nation and their alumni have, and continue to play leadership roles in shaping our country.

Since 1998, the Patriot League has ranked first each year among all Division I conferences awarding athletic aid in the NCAA Graduation Rate Report. The League finished at the top spot with 96 percent of its teams reporting a graduation rate of 85 percent or higher in the most recent data.

In addition, 76 Patriot League teams earned NCAA Academic Performance Program Public Recognition Awards after posting academic progress rate scores in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports.

The Patriot League’s mission is simple, to provide successful competitive athletic experiences while maintaining high academic standards, and to prepare its student-athletes to be leaders in society.

During the 2008-09 academic year, Patriot League student-athletes and teams accomplished the following: • 14 student-athletes earned ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America honors • 61 student-athletes were recognized as ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-District recipients, with 45 on the First Team.

• Holy Cross men’s soccer senior Jerry Dickinson was awarded a Fulbright Grant to work and study in South Africa.

• Navy’s Kelly Zahalka earned her third Academic All-America selection from CoSIDA, and was also named to the USA Today First-Team All-Academic squad. She also earned both a Truman and Marshall Scholarship.

• Navy’s Lizzie Barnes was one of 58 student-athletes nationally to receive an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship and was also a First-Team All-Senior All-America selection.

• Army became the first Patriot League team to advance to the finals of the NCAA Baseball Regional.

Bucknell Department of Athletics and Recreation Mission Statement The Department of Athletics and Recreation strives to set the standard of excellence for intercollegiate and intramural programs in higher education, thereby advancing and drawing attention to the mission, core values, and educational goals of Bucknell University.

The Department believes that student-athletes’ academic programs must be their first priority. It is therefore committed to maintaining Bucknell’s high national ranking for student-athletes’ graduation rates and for producing Academic All-Americans, and to continued leadership of the Patriot League in Academic Honor Roll nominations, based on grade-point averages. The coaches’ and staff’s paramount responsibility is maintaining academic priorities and supporting student-athletes’ education, even while providing the rigorous and serious NCAA Division I athletic opportunities Bucknell student-athletes st seek.

Further, the Department promotes the th personal growth of student-athletes le and the general student body by encouraging en personal health, development, m and balance among intellectual, so social, civic, and physical pursuits; by celebrating ce challenge and competition; tio and by preparing participants for service and leadership in the world. se Coaches and staff direct a rich array of C athletic programs and recreational opat portunities aimed at increasing student po engagement, as well as strengthening en character, healthy living, teamwork, ch sportsmanship, and spirit. In creatsp ing in shared experiences for students, faculty, and staff, as well as alumni, fa family, and friends, the Department’s fa programs add substantially to Bucknell’s sense of community and foster life-long relationships with Bucknell.

The Department embraces the University’s decision to compete at the highest extramural level, in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). Division I membership is valuable not only because this level of competition maximally challenges student-athletes, but also because it signals clearly Bucknell’s high standards and seriousness of purpose in all extracurricular endeavors and it helps position Bucknell apart from other National Liberal Arts Colleges. Likewise, the competitive success the Department seeks, measured in part by consistent contention for the Patriot League Presidents’ Cup, reflects positively upon Bucknell’s student-athletes and the University alike, and it brings distinction and national recognition to Bucknell.

A student-centered operation, the Department is committed to providing equitable opportunities to women and men, as well as members of minority and majority groups of all kinds. The Department subscribes to, and complies with, all principles and regulations of the Patriot League, the Eastern College Athletic Conference, and the NCAA.

Bucknell Bison Athletics Setting the Standard of Excellence Bucknell takes great pride in its commitment to excellence on and off the playing fields. From Presidents’ Cups to Academic All-Americans to graduation rates that are ranked annually in the national top-10, Bucknell is clearly at the head of the class when it comes to upholding the scholar-athlete ideal.

•

According to federal data released by the NCAA in the fall of 2008, Bucknell’s four-year student-athlete graduation rate was second-highest in the nation among student-athletes who entered college between the 1998-99 and 2001-02 academic years. With a four-class average of 89 percent, Bucknell trailed only Davidson (92 percent) among all Division I institutions reporting federal graduation rates (the Ivy League and military academies do not report federal graduation rates). Georgetown, Notre Dame and Holy Cross were also at 89 percent. Bucknell’s student-athlete graduation rate is identical to its overall student-body average of 89 percent.

•

With three more Patriot League championships in 2008-09, Bucknell has now earned 73 crowns in 19 years in the league. In addition, Bucknell has had 100 conference players of the year, 83 PL coaches of the year and a whopping 476 individual league champions from sports such as cross country, track & field, swimming & diving, tennis and golf.

•

Bucknell has captured the Patriot League Presidents’ Cup, signifying the league’s all-sports champion, 15 times in the 19-year history of the affiliation, including 11 of the last 12 years. Bucknell claimed the overall and women’s Cup standings in 2008-09. It was the 12th straight year and the 15th time overall that the Bison took home the women’s title. In 2008-09, Bucknell won Patriot League titles in women’s outdoor track & field, women’s rowing and men’s golf. Additionally, the baseball and men’s lacrosse teams captured regular-season titles.

•

Bucknell has claimed a league-high 113 Patriot League Scholar-Athletes of the Year since the league’s inception as an all-sports conference in 1990-91.

•

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

•

A total of 366 Bison appeared on the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll in 2008-09 after recording a GPA of 3.2 or better during their sport’s competition season. Among all BU student-athletes, 238 made the Dean’s List with GPAs of 3.5 or better in the spring of 2009.

•

•

24 of Bucknell’s 27 varsity squads posted team GPAs of 3.0 or better in the spring of 2009.

•

In addition to the 117 ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans produced since 1970, Bucknell has also claimed 276 Academic All-District honorees over the same span, including a school-record 22 in 2008-09.

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

Bucknell Bison Athletics A National Model in Promoting the Scholar-Athlete Ideal Bucknell Athletics is first and foremost a student-centered organization, one that strives to be a national model when it comes to operating by a true scholar-athlete model. At Bucknell, student-athletes’ academic programs are their first priority, and providing a competitive Division I athletics program only advances the mission, values and residential learning goals of the university. To that end, the Department of Athletics and Recreation proactively seeks ways to assist student-athletes in their daily academic pursuits.

Below are just some of the student-athlete support programs currently in place.

FACULTY ATHLETICS REPRESENTATIVE: The faculty athletics representative (FAR) is a member of the faculty or administrative staff who is designated to represent Bucknell in its relationships with the NCAA and the Patriot League. Bucknell’s FAR is Mitch Chernin, Professor of Biology. The FAR can enhance the student-athlete experience by promoting a balance between academics, athletics and the social lives of student-athletes, which affords them opportunities to enjoy the full range of collegiate experiences available to students generally.

SIDELINE COACH PROGRAM: This program is a truly unique initiative in Division I college athletics, and it involves the invitation of a member of the faculty, administration, staff or community by one of Bucknell’s 27 varsity teams. The participant has the opportunity to discuss the overall program with the respective coaching staff, including practice preparation and strategy for the upcoming contest. The sideline coach attends a practice session and an actual intercollegiate competition, where he/she is introduced to the team and gains rarely seen insight into the relationships that exist between player-coach and player-player. The purpose of the Sideline Coaches Program is to foster a better understanding by the faculty and administration of the roles played by coaches and athletes in the university’s competitive intercollegiate athletic arena.

ACADEMIC ENHANCEMENT CENTER: In the Fall of 2005, the Department of Athletics opened a study/computer lab for student-athletes on the concourse level of Sojka Pavilion. The center is outfitted with computers, a laser printer, four television monitors and a projection unit with computer, VCR and DVD player. Additionally, the study lab can be used as a meeting place for group projects, tutorial area or just a secluded and quiet study space before or after practice.

LAPTOP PROGRAM: The Department of Athletics owns a number of laptop computers that may be signed out by student-athletes for use on away trips.

STUDENT-ATHLETE ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SAAC): Representatives from each varsity team comprise the SAAC, which is designed to enhance the total student-athlete experience by promoting opportunity, protecting student-athlete welfare, and fostering a positive student-athlete image. The Committee is an invaluable resource for promoting communication between athletics administration and student-athletes; promoting communication between athletics and campus-wide administration; providing feedback and insight, as well as soliciting responses into department issues and proposed NCAA legislation; building a sense of community within the athletics program involving all athletics teams; organizing community service projects and efforts; creating a vehicle for student-athlete representation on campus-wide committees; serving as a collective voice of campus student-athletes; and disseminating information to the student-athlete body.

OTHER PROGRAMMING: The Department of Athletics, through the identification of outside speakers and periodic “Brown Bag Luncheons,” thrives to enhance the quality of the student-athlete experience as well as to educate student-athletes on a variety of issues that may affect them throughout their collegiate career. Some recent topics of interest have been alcohol, nutrition, body image, hazing, sexuality, diversity, career development, study skills, religious life and gambling.

Season Preview Every team seeks improvement from one season to pr the th next, and for Bucknell field hockey, that goal is no different. ho The Bison put themselves in T prime position to make a major pr move after 2008. m “We’re obviously looking to build on last year’s secondplace finish in the tournament pl even though last year’s perev formance was among the best fo in program history,” said head coach Jeremy Cook, who is co heading into his second seahe son so with the Orange and Blue.

“We’re still looking to build off that.”

The team advanced to the Patriot League Tournament championship game for the first time in eight years, capping off a season that was filled with program records and success. The 2008 Bison recorded 11 wins, which tied them for the second-most in program history.

They also set a program record with 58 assists, to go along with their 51 goals, bettering the previous assists high by more than 20.

Even with the success from last year still fresh in the team’s mind, 2009 will not be without its challenges. The most obvious difference from a year ago is the smaller team size that will limit the number of players the Bison will be able to bring off the bench.

“We’re replacing nine people leaving with five incoming, so that drops our team total down to 19 total with three goalkeepers,” said Cook. “Last year we were able to play 17 and 18 players consistently every single game, so we’re going to need some pretty significant contributions from some of the freshmen.”

Bucknell will also be without All-Patriot League players Amanda Faust and Trina Boyer who graduated last year. The former Bison combined for 55 points on 21 goals, including five game winners, and 13 assists last season. They were also named Patriot League All-Tournament and National Field Hockey Coaches Association All-Mideast Region during their senior campaigns.

Faust and Boyer leave big shoes to fill, but the freshman class will do its best to contribute early and often, bringing a list of credentials to impress. Amy Atkins and Ellie Barrett each come to Bucknell with their high school’s goal scoring records in hand. They join classmates Katie Durkin and Caroline Merrell with a handful of all-state selections, while Tayler Siegrist brings a wealth of club and Junior Olympics experience to the team.

Those freshmen are not the only weapons the Bison have in combating the challenges. The quintet will join solid veterans such as Megan Krebs, Jessie Atieh and Bruvik, whom Cook expects to play key roles in the new year. Krebs, a senior midfielder, tallied 15 points off five goals and five assists last year while starting all 19 games. Her 11 career assists ranks her in a tie for 14th all-time at Bucknell.

“Megan Krebs at center half has worked really, really hard this summer. She was a huge contributor last year and she’s going to make an even bigger impact on the team this year.”

Atieh, who was named a co-captain along with fellow senior Sarah Ebright, will likely continue to see a majority of the time in goal. Atieh started all 18 games in which she played, earning a team-best nine wins and recording five losses.

Heading into the season, she ranks in a tie for ninth on the Bucknell career wins list with 15 and is 10th in career saves with 140.

Bruvik is expected to continue her strong play into 2009. The junior forward netted seven goals in her last campaign, making her the leading returning goal scorer. She also recorded three game winners, which was tied for second-most on the team.

CORINNE RACZEK “Kelly Bruvik is our center strik-

www.BucknellBison.com er, so she’s the creator up front, scoring goals and creating opportunities,” said Cook. “She’s very, very good, and she’ll contribute more and more.”

Also returning in 2009 are juniors Corinne Raczek and Kauffman, a pair of Second Team All-Patriot League selections last year. The duo also claimed the top two spots on Bucknell’s season assists list with Raczek taking the program record with 16 and Kauffman tallying 15 for second place. With a goal and an assist in the league championship game against American, Kauffman also earned a spot on the Patriot League All-Tournament Team.

Krebs, Raczek and Kauffman will also provide some important stability on the turf, as the trio of midfielders rivals few in terms of career consistency. The three have yet to miss a game in their careers.

“None of the three midfield positions have changed. Two of our outside midfielders have a chance at going three years playing every game, starting every game in the same positions, which is quite extraordinary,” said Cook. “Our midfield has the experience of having a year under their belt with the system that we’re coaching. Those guys are coming in with the background and should be able to help with forward.”

Defensively, look for Ebright and junior Christine Weiss to provide solid backing for the Orange and Blue. The duo, which started all 19 games, recorded virtually identical statistics last season, including one defensive save and an assist apiece.

“The other senior co-captain is joining Christine Weiss as a fullback and the two of them are going to be outstanding together,” predicted Cook. “They have a very good rapport and are both great students of the game.”

In addition to the newcomers, extra experience and some positional changes such as moving sophomore Marci CHRISTINE WEISS Richard from midfield to right halfback, Bucknell has made some alterations to its schedule in hopes of boosting its chances at an automatic bid to the NCAA CAA Tournament.

Tournament Non-conferNon confer ence matchups with the Ivy League’s Columbia and Cornell carry special significance to the Bison as they try to earn the school’s first-ever NCAA Tournament berth.

“We (the Patriot League) lost out to the Ivy League last year by a tenth of a point in the RPI rankings that would then generate an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The way that we’re set up now, we play a Friday-Saturday tournament, have essentially Sunday off, Monday travel, and then Tuesday you play a game against the winner of another conference to get into the tournament. Then three days later you’re playing in the tournament. It’s not set up for success right now,” explained Cook. “If we’re going to go head-to-head with them (the Ivy League schools) in terms of getting an automatic bid, we’re going to go head-to-head with them (during the regular season). The Columbia and Cornell games are very, very important to us from that aspect.”

Following the non-conference schedule, the Bison will face off against the perennial Patriot League foes in hopes of making a repeat appearance in the league’s championship showdown. Bucknell p finished the 2008 regular season in a third-place tie with a 2-3 league record, and Cook anticipates an increased level of competition in the r upcoming year. u “The league has continued to get stronger,” said Cook. “Lehigh was w one of the weaker teams in the conference last year but picked up one o of the best high school defenders in New Jersey, so they’re going to t be a lot stronger. Lafayette has done consistently well with their recruiting, and American, obviously, is really, really strong.” r Bucknell will get its first shot at the Patriot League when it takes on Lafayette on Oct. 3 at home. After facing Lehigh on the road a week L later, the team will then seek to avenge its league championship game la loss lo to American on Oct. 17 in Lewisburg. League games against Colgate (Oct. 24) and Holy Cross (Oct. 31) will help to determine Buckg nell’s postseason fate in the increasingly powerful Patriot League. n

The Plan for Bucknell Bucknell is a unique national university where liberal arts and professional programs complement each other, where 3,350 full-time students are educated for a lifetime of critical thinking and strong leadership. For 160 years, the University has remained true to its fundamental purpose: to educate and prepare students for lives that make a difference and have a positive impact on the world.

In keeping with that purpose, the University has developed The Plan for Bucknell, which includes its collective vision — “To provide students with the premier undergraduate experience in American higher education.”

The Plan comprises five strategies.

Strengthen the Academic Core aims to ensure that a Bucknell education is challenging and engaging, with openness to new ideas and a culture of innovation; Deepen the Residential Learning Experience will provide a residential learning and living experience that complements the academic program, integrates the athletics and recreation program and promotes personal growth and development and civic and ethical responsibility; Enhance Diversity is a commitment to diversity in all its forms within a civil and supportive environment of open exchange to prepare Bucknell graduates to live and work in a globally integrated and intercultural world; Build Bridges will bring the world to Bucknell — through visiting scholars and sports teams, international students and alumni, guest speakers, international focus semesters, and electronic communications — and bring Bucknell to the world through strategic partnerships and community engagement activities as well as opportunities for off-campus study and faculty research; Secure Our Financial Future will secure resources necessary to engage new opportunities, lessen dependence on tuition, and ensure our financial future.

The Plan for Bucknell was unanimously approved by the Board of Trustees on April 29, 2006, having previously been approved by the students and faculty. We have begun implementing it and are determined to make it a reality over the next decade.
