Wednesday, Dec. 30 @ 7 p.m.

atAGlancEStill in search of its first road win of the season, St. Bonaventure heads north to take on Little 3 rival Niagara in the 150th meeting between the two tradition-rich programs. The Bonnies dropped a hard-fought game at #5 Syracuse on Saturday night, while Niagara - winners of three of its last four - have had nine days off from game action.

all-timESERIESNot only is it the 150th meeting all-time between the two schools, but its the 50th meeting at "Taps" Gallagher Center, which opened in 1949. The Bon-nies are 27-22 all-time at the Gallagher Center, but have dropped three in a row there. Niagara has taken six in a row in the series and own a 83-66 all-time edge. The Purple Eagles have scored 100 or more points three times over the six-game streak. The Gallagher Center has produced some high-scoring affairs as of late, as the last three games have featured a combined 183 points per contest. The recent Purple Eagle run put an end to an 11-game win streak by St. Bo-naventure that spanned over eight seasons (1993-01).

thisDAyinBONABaskEtBallSt. Bonaventure is 3-2 all-time when playing on December 22, dating back to the 1975-76 season in the Bona record books - the final season that has actual dates recorded. The Bonnies defeated Oral Roberts 70-67 in the second round of the San Juan Shootout in 1997 before falling to Iowa in the champi-onship. It was the second time that season the Bonnies advanced to an in-season tournament title game. Sophomore Tim Winn led the way with 23 points, including the team's final 10 of the game.

scoutinG thE purplE EaGlEsNiagara takes the court for the first time since Dec. 13 after going through finals week. The Purple Eagles are 7-4 under 11th year head coach Joe Mihalich. In its last game, Niagara came away with a 76-68 win at Illinois State, a place where the Bonnies fell by a 70-67 outcome. The Purple Eagles are led by a sensational sea-son class of Bilal Benn, Rob Garrison, Tyrone Lewis and Demetrius Williamson, who combined to average 55.3 points per game as the team's top four scorers. In all, five players average double fig-ure points for Niagara, who posts a 74.2 per game clip as a team. The Purple Eagles average an impressive 11.8 turnovers per game and make 9.2 three-pointers per contest - figures that rank 29th and 15th in the nation, respectively. After missing the first four games of the season, Lewis, the reigning MAAC Defensive Player of the year, is averaging a team-high 17.1 points per game. Benn has missed the last two games with a knee injury and is question-able for Tuesday's game. Benn was dominate through the team's first nine games, averaging a double-double of 15.6 points and 11.0 rebounds. Niagara is 3-1 at home this season, but lost its last game at the Gallagher Center to Buffalo.

liGhts, camEra, action!Tonight's game along with last Saturday's contest at Syracuse will be televised by Time Warner SportsNet. Saturday's game against the nationally-ranked Orange was shown live in the Rochester, Buffalo and Olean regions, while Brown and White's contest at Niagara will only air on tape delay. The game will be shown on Wednesday, Dec. 23, at 7 p.m. in the Buffalo and Olean region.

in our DEFEnsEAfter failing to hold an opponent to less than 50 points over the previous 275 games, St. Bonaventure held back-to-back oppo-nents to 41 and 44 points, respectively, in the month of November (Binghamton & Southeast Missouri State). It marked the first time since 1982, that the Brown and White have held two consecutive opponents under 50 points. Against Savannah State on Dec. 12, St. Bonaventure held its third opponent of the season in the 40s during a 79-47 victory. The defensive effort marked the first time in 50 years, the 1958-59 season, that the Brown and White have held three opponents in the 40s during the same season.

EasY DoEs itThanks to solid interior play, easy buckets in transition and points off turnovers, St. Bonaventure has shot an impressive 51 percent from the field to lead the A-10 and rank fifth in the nation. The Bonnies have shot over 50 percent in seven of 10 games and 12 of 20 periods. The Brown and White's best shooting performance of the season came against Norfolk State when it finished 37-of-55 from the field for a 67 percent clip. The team's top percentage in a half came over the opening 20 minutes of the season against Cleveland State when it sank 77 percent (17-22) of its shots. Sophomore AndreW nicholson (.646) and senior JonA-ThAn hAll (.582) rank first and fourth in the A-10, respectively, and in the top 25 nationally in field goal percentage, while a total of six players are above the 50 percent clip.

thE cn towErStanding 6-foot-9 with a 7-foot-4 wingspan, sophomore AndreW nicholson is the center of attention for opposing teams. That hasn't stopped the reigning Atlantic 10 Rookie of the year from getting off to a great start to his second season, as the Canadian big man leads the team in both scoring (15.6) and rebounding (7.2). Nicholson leads the A-10 with a 64.6 percent (64-99) field goal percentage and is one of two players to rank in top 10 in the conference in both scoring (9th) and rebounding (7th). Nicholson poured in a game-high 26 points on 11-of-15 from the field against St. John's and then equaled a career-high with 29 points and a career-best 14 boards against Norfolk State. He has led the team in scoring six times and rebounding five times this season, including both in the same game on four occasions.

soFt touchWho says big men can't shoot? According to the most recent NCAA statistics, sophomore AndreW nicholson is one of two players in the nation shooting 60 percent or better from the field and at least 80 percent from the free throw line. To be eli-gible for the rankings, the player has to make five field goals per game and an average of 2.5 free throws per contest. The 6-foot-9 second-year forward connected on all eight of his attempts from the charity stripe against Savannah St. and ranks second in the A-10 in free throw percentage. He also leads the conference in field goal percentage (.646) after finishing second in 2008-09 and is 24 of his last 32 from the field over the past three games. Nich-olson is joined by Lafayette's Jared Mintz on the exclusive list.

GEt rEaDY, GEt sEt, Go!Simultaneous with its solid 6-4 start to the season has been St. Bonaventure's ability to get off to great starts in the first half. The Bonnies have taken the lead into the locker room in seven of 10 games, including five leads of 13 points or more. St. Bonaven-ture out-scored those seven opponents 266-178, good for a 12.6 margin. The Bonnies are shooting 51 percent (140-275) in the first stanza this season. Sophomore AndreW nicholson is averaging team bests of 10.4 points and 4.7 rebounds over the opening 20 minutes.


BonniEs Fall short at #5 sYracusE, 85-72 (Box score & Full recap on Page 32)sYrAcUse, n.Y. - Despite a despite a gutsy effort for the full 40 minutes, St. Bona venture couldn’t overcome a 19-4 run that stretched from the end of the first half to the start of the second half as #5/#5 Syracuse came away with a 85-72 win on Saturday night in front of 20,578 fans at the Carrier Dome. The loss snapped a two-game win streak for the Bonnies, who fell to 6-4. The win improved Syracuse to a perfect 11-0. The meeting was the 26th between the two teams, but just the sixth since 1987. Sophomore An-dreW nicholson led the way in the scoring department for the sixth time this sea-son with a game-high 18 points on 9-of-10 from the field to go along with five rebounds. Senior chris mATTheWs finished with 17 points on four three-pointers, while all 10 of senior JonAThAn hAll’s points came in the second half after first half foul trouble. Along with the late run in the first half and the early second half push, the other differ-ence in the game came at the free throw line where Syracuse made 15-of-26 compared to the Brown and White’s 6-of-12. Fouls plagued the Bonnies at the guard position, as Michael Davenport and Hall missed considerable time due to fouls.

The Bonnies have shot 50 percent or better in seven of the 10 games and are shooting at an impressive 51 percent clip (277-545) for the year - the fifth-best percentage in the nation. The easy buckets around the rim have led to a 358-314 edge in points in the paint. The 358 points in the paint account for 49 percent of the team's offense this season and nearly 36 points per game. St. Bonaventure finished with a 50 percent shooting percentage or better just eight times over two previ-ous seasons.

point GuarD BY committEEJust like the early part of last year, head coach mArk schmidT has opted to use a pair of players to occupy the point guard position. Juniors ogo AdegBoYe and mAl-colm eleBY make up the Bona floor generals, combining to average 12.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game. Eleby has made 40 straight starts at point guard, while Ad-egboye is in his first season after transferring from Lamar CC (Colo.). A more physical point guard at 6-foot-3, Eleby has led the team in assists six times and ranks third in the A-10 at 4.6 helpers per game. Adegboye's breakout came at Mississippi State when he scored a team-high 13 points.

2009-10 Bonnies Trends

racE to 100After producing the third-best blocked shot total in school history as a freshman, An-dreW nicholson is now trying to become just the third player in program history to reach 100 career blocks. Nicholson currently stands at 97 rejections through 40 career games. All-time shot block leader cAsWell cYrUs accomplished the feat in 36 games. Cyrus' 100th career block came in the 12th game of his sophomore year when he set the then-school record with eight blocks vs. Siena. Nicholson tied the record last year vs. Princeton and then broke it three games later at Bucknell with nine blocks. Nicholson is currently seventh in the Atlantic 10 at 1.6 blocks per game.

thE cincinnati kiDAfter a freshman season in which he averaged 3.3 points and played sparingly, mi-chAel dAvenPorT has shown major progress in his sophomore campaign. After scoring in double figures one time as a freshman, the Cincinnati, Ohio product has already produced four double-digit efforts this season. Davenport began his second season in style, scoring a career-high 19 points on 7-of-10 from the field off the bench. Davenport is fourth on the team in scoring (8.7) and second in assists (33). After com-ing off the bench over the first seven contests, Davenport has made three consecutive starts.

lEnDinG a hElpinG hanDPartial credit for St. Bonaventure's sensational shooting percentage is its improvement in passing the ball. The Bonnies currently lead the A-10 in assists per game at 16.7, a figure that ranks 31st in the nation. As a team, St. Bonaventure has passed out an assist on 60 percent of its field goals, including a season-best 26 against Norfolk State. Junior point guard mAlcolm eleBY ranks third in the A-10 at 4.6 per game and has led the team in assists six times. Sophomore michAel dAvenPorT passed out a team season-high and career-best eight assists in the win over Norfolk State. As a team, the Bonnies have had 15 or more assists in eight games and a pair of contests with 20 or more helpers.

CURRENT BONNIES IN THESINGLE-SEASON RECORDS

thE Dunk tankArmed with more athleticism and depth, St. Bonaventure's eye-opening 77 percent shooting percentage in the first half in its season-opening win over Cleveland State was fueled by a plethora of dunks and layups. The easy buck-ets have led to 358 points in the paint so far this season. Sophomore An-dreW nicholson's 16 dunks so far this season are more than half of the team's 29. Last season, Nicholson led the team with 37 dunks. Here's how the Bonnies stack up this season.

mr. novEmBErSenior JonAThAn hAll has made an immediate impact during his short time in the Brown and White, especially in the opening month of the season. Last season, Hall scored in double figures in the opening nine games, including all six games in Novem-ber. Hall has continued his early season success with six more double figure games, including a game-high 20 points in the season opener, to bring his career 12-game November scoring average to 15 points. Hall is third on the team in scoring at 11.8 points per contest and second in rebounding (4.0). The Miami, Fla. product is fourth in the A-10 in field goal percentage (.582) and has finished in double figures a team-best nine times.

20/20 visionDuring the team's 98-71 blowout win over Norfolk State at the BTI Classic, sophomore AndreW nicholson and senior chris mATTheWs became the first duo since 2007-08 to score 20 points in the same game. Nicholson equaled a career-high with 29 points, while Matthews drilled six three-pointers en route to 21 points. The last duo to score 20 points in the same game was michAel lee and TYler relPh on senior day against Dayton in 2008. Lee and senior ZArrYon FereTi also scored 20 points in the same game three times that season.

licEnsE to stEalJunior mAlcolm eleBY's ability to play multiple guard positions is thanks in large to ability to play defense. The Philadelphia, Pa. native led the Brown and White in steals last season with 42 and is off to another good start on the defensive end. Eleby has registered five multi-steal games bringing his career total to 19. Eleby has a steal in nine games this year and in 32 of his last 40 contests dating back to last season.

EarlY sEason harDwarEBoth senior chris mATTheWs and sophomore AndreW nicholson earned All-Tournament honors at the Basketball Travelers Classic at the end of November. Matthews buried 18 three-pointers over the three games, while Nicholson averaged 22 points and 13 rebounds over the first two games. On the final day of the tournament, Nicholson was named the A-10 Co-Player of the Week after his performance in the opening two games.

prEsEason honorsSophomore AndreW nicholson's Rookie of the year campaign in 2008-09 earned the respect of the A-10's head coach, as the 6-foot-9 forward was named to the preseason All-Conference second team and All-Defensive team. Nicholson was the only player to be named to multiple teams and is just one of three underclassmen on the three preseason teams. Nicholson also received some notoriety from ESPN's Fran Fraschilla in the fall when he was named to his Outstanding Defenders list.

two oF a kinDThe team leader in the three major statistical categories, senior JonAThAn hAll be-came just the second player in program history to lead the club in scoring, rebounding and assists in the same season in 2008-09. Hall's 12.9 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists were all team-bests. AhmAd smiTh was the only player prior to Hall to accomplish the feat in program history in 2004-05, with totals of 14.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.4 assists.

HEADCOACHMARKSCHMIDT


Bio With his blue collar work ethic now installed in the program, third-year head coach Mark Schmidt will con-tinue his revival of St. Bonaventure basketball in 2009-10. Schmidt took over the tradition-rich program on April 10, 2007, becoming the 19th head coach in school history. In just two short years, Schmidt and the Bonnies have re-energized the Bona faithful and basketball-passionate Western New york community. In 2008-09, St. Bonaventure finished with a 15-15 overall record – the program’s best mark in the last six years. Included in that season was a program record seven consecutive road wins to start the season and the program’s first trip back to the Atlantic 10 Tournament since 2005. Team team’s seven true road wins also tied the record set by the 2001-02 club.

Key to the quick turnaround in 2008-09 was the team’s ability to buy into Schmidt’s emphasis on playing hard for 40 minutes. That philosophy paid big dividends, as the Bonnies out-rebounded 22 of their 30 opponents en route to ranking in the top five in the conference in all three major rebounding statistics. Also a direct result of Schmidt’s style of play was the team’s 70.8 points per game – the most by a Bonaventure team since 2002-03. During the 2008-09 season, freshman Andrew Nichol-son was named the A-10 Rookie of the year and a Fresh-man All-American by CollegeHoopsNet.com. Nicholson is the third player in Schmidt’s eight-year head coaching career to win a conference Rookie of the year accolade. Junior Jonathan Hall also flourished under Schmidt’s run-and-gun style, becoming the second player in program history to lead the team in points, rebounds and assists in the same season.

Additionally, Schmidt achieved a personal milestone of his own midway through the season, as he earned his 100th career win in the team’s 78-65 win at Fordham in the A-10 opener. Schmidt’s intense personality rubbed off on everyone involved with the program in his first season, including the senior class of Zarryon Fereti, Michael Lee and Tyler Relph who flourished under just one season of Schmidt’s guidance. All three posted career years on the court and experienced success of the court by graduating in May. Both Fereti and Lee worked their way into the profes-sional ranks overseas, while Relph finished as the NCAA leader in free throw percentage. Schmidt served as the head coach at Robert Morris for six seasons prior to coming to St. Bonaventure. There, he inherited a program that had managed just a 7-22 record in the season before his arrival. Schmidt quickly turned things around, leading the Colonials to the North-east Conference Tournament semifinals in 2004 and 2006. During his six seasons at RMU, he had an overall record of 82-90, including a 15-14 mark in 2005-06, the program's first winning season since 2000. Schmidt turned the Colo-nials into a year-in and year-out contender in the confer-ence, posting a 58-52 mark in league play highlighted by four seasons of 10 or more league wins. Schmidt coached six NEC All-Conference players at RMU, along with three All-Rookie team selections and one Conference Rookie of the year in Jeremy Chappell in 2006. Over the last two seasons, Schmidt saw his former recruit Tony Lee and Chappell garner back-to-back NEC Player of the year accolades in 2008 and 2009, respec-tively. Prior to Robert Morris, Schmidt spent seven seasons as an assistant coach at Xavier University under head coach Skip Prosser. Schmidt served as the program's top recruiter, landing future NBA players Torraye Braggs (Houston Rockets), Lionel Chalmers (Minnesota Timber-wolves), James Posey (Miami Heat), Romain Sato (San An-tonio Spurs) and David West (New Orleans Hornets). With most of his coaching responsibilities centered around the post players, Schmidt helped develop West into a three-time Atlantic 10 Player of the year and the National Player of the year in 2003. During his stay in Cincinnati, Ohio, Schmidt helped lead the Musketeers to four NCAA Tournament appear-ances and the National Invitational Tournament (NIT) twice. Xavier claimed its first-ever Atlantic 10 West Di-vision title in 1996-97 and both the West Division and


tournament championships in 1997-98. In 1997, Xavier defeated Vanderbilt in the first round of the NCAA Tour-nament and finished the season with the school's highest Associated Press ranking at No. 13. The Musketeers made it to the NIT Final Four at Madison Square Garden in 1999, finishing third, the school's best finish since 1958. Schmidt served as an assistant under Prosser at Loy-ola College during the 1993-94 season. He helped guide the Greyhounds to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Tournament title and the school's first-ever NCAA Tour-nament berth. From 1991-93, Schmidt was an assistant at Penn State University under Bruce Parkhill. The Nittany Lions went 21-8 in 1992 and appeared in the NIT. Schmidt's coaching career began with a two-year stint as an assistant at St. Michael's College in Vermont. Schmidt played four seasons at Boston College, where he received his bachelor's degree in business administration and management with a concentration in marketing. In his freshman season under head coach Tom Davis, the Eagles went 22-10 and made the NCAA Elite Eight. Schmidt played his final three years under the guidance of head coach Gary Williams. Boston College advanced to the NIT in 1984 and the NCAA Sweet Sixteen the other two years. A native of North Attleboro, Mass., Schmidt and his wife Anita have three sons, Nicholas (14), Derek (12) and Michael (9).

Game #1ST. BONAveNTuRe 72Cleveland State 62Nov. 13, 2009 at the Reilly Center

st. BonavEnturE, n.Y. - St. Bonaventure jumped out to a 18-point halftime lead and never looked back as it cruised to a 72-62 season-opening win over defending Horizon League Tournament champ Cleveland State on Friday night at the Reilly Center. The opening 20 minutes looked like anything but the Brown and White’s first half of the season, as their 41-22 advantage at the half brought the crowd of 4,860 fans to their feet. St. Bonaventure was sharp on the offensive end, shooting an unheard-of 77 percent from the floor over the opening 20 minutes. “I thought we played a terrific first half and got out to a great start shooting 77 percent from the field,” said head coach mArk schmidT. “That was the best half of basketball from both an offensive and defensive standpoint that we’ve had in a long time.” The Bonnies received a trio of big performances, led by senior JonAThAn hAll’s game-high 20 points that came on 10-of-14 from the field to go along with a team-best eight rebounds. Sophomore AndreW nicholson contributed 17 points, including 14 in the first half, while adding seven boards and four blocks. The surprise game came from sophomore michAel dAvenPorT (pictured) who came off the bench and established a new career-high with 19 points on 7-of-10 from the field in 28 minutes of work. Led by Davenport, the Bona bench out-scored Cleveland State’s reserves by a 25-9 margin.

Game #2St. John's 69ST. BONAveNTuRe 68Nov. 17, 2009 at Blue Cross Arena

rochEstEr, n.Y. - After erasing a late seven-point deficit over the final three minutes, St. Bonaventure watched its lead evaporate with just six seconds remaining as Malik Boothe sank a pair of free throws to send St. John's to a thrilling 69-68 win on Tuesday night at Blue Cross Arena. Sophomore AndreW nicholson (pictured) made good on his two free throw attempts with just 11 seconds to go, giving the Bonnies their first lead, 68-67, since the 18:05 mark early in the half. Boothe then broke the Brown and White's full court pressure and was fouled going to the rim resulting in the two free throws. St. Bonaventure did get a good look in its final shot, but sophomore michAel dAvenPorT's three-pointer from the top of the key caromed off the back of the rim as the buzzer sounded. The back-and-forth game featured 10 lead changes and nine ties, as both team's enjoyed good nights on the offensive end. The Bonnies finished above the 50 percent plateau for the second straight game, connecting on 26-of-46 from the field. St. John's shot 54 percent , but made eight three-pointers to the Bonnies' one. The Bonnies out-scored St. John's by a 44-30 margin in the paint. The major reason for that advantage down low was the play of Nicholson, who led all scorers with 26 points despite missing the final nine minutes of the first half due to foul trouble. Nicholson finished 11-of-15 of the field and scored 17 points in the second half.

Game #3ST. BONAveNTuRe 66Binghamton 40Nov. 20, 2009 at the Reilly Center

st. BonavEnturE, n.Y. - A 35-6 run that stretched from the end of the first half through the opening 12 minutes of the second half helped St. Bonaventure shake off a slow start en route to a 66-40 win over Binghamton on Friday night at the Reilly Center. The 40 points giving up is the best defensive effort since Jan. 7, 1995, when the Brown and White held Appalachian State to 32 points at the Reilly Center.

The win moves the Bonnies to 2-1 on the season, heading into next week’s three-game stint at the BTI Classic hosted by Illinois State. The Bearcats, on the other hand, fall to 1-2 with the loss. Just two players finished in double figures for the Brown and White, as 11 of the 12 players who got into the game registered a bucket. Senior JonAThAn hAll (pictured) led the way with 12 points, while sophomore michAel dAvenPorT finished with 10 points that to a pair of three-pointers. St. Bonaventure built a commanding 43-24 on the glass thanks to a season-best 16 rebounds on the offensive glass. The Brown and White’s hard work on the glass led to a 16-5 edge in second chance points and 34 points in the paint.

Game #10#5 Syracuse 85ST. BONAveNTuRe 72Dec. 19, 2009 at the Carrier Dome

sYracusE, n.Y. - Despite a despite a gutsy effort for the full 40 minutes, St. Bonaventure couldn’t overcome a 19-4 run that stretched from the end of the first half to the start of the second half as #5/#5 Syracuse came away with a 85-72 win on Saturday night in front of 20,578 fans at the Carrier Dome. The loss snaps a two-game win streak for the Bonnies, who fall to 6-4. The win improved Syracuse to a perfect 11-0. Sophomore AndreW nicholson led the way in the scoring department for the sixth time this season with a game-high 18 points on 9-of-10 from the field to go along with five rebounds. Senior chris mATTheWs (pictured) finished with 17 points on four three-pointers, while all 10 of senior JonAThAn hAll’s points came in the second half after first half foul trouble. Along with the late run in the first half and the early second half push, the other difference in the game came at the free throw line where Syracuse made 15-of-26 compared to the Brown and White’s 6-of-12. Fouls plagued the Bonnies at the guard position, as michAel dAvenPorT and Hall missed considerable time. A big reason for the Bona foul trouble was the physical inside play of Syracuse junior Rick Jackson. The 6-foot-9, 240-lb. forward finished 8-of-11 from the field en route to an 18-point and 10-rebound night. Wesley Johnson also chipped in a double-double with 17 points and 10 boards.
