Opening Tip Overview~ Making its first Sweet 16 appearance in its NCAA Tournament debut, the fifth-seeded St. Bonaventure women’s basketball team faces top-seeded Notre Dame in the Raleigh Regional Semifinal Sunday afternoon.

~ The Bonnies and Irish are meeting for the first time. SBU advanced to the second weekend of the NCAA tourney by virtue of wins over Florida Gulf Coast (72-65 OT) and Marist (66-63) in the opening rounds in Florida, while ND remained at home to defeat Liberty (74-43) and California (73-62). The winner advances to the Elite 8 with a trip to the Final Four on the line Tuesday night at 9 against either second-seeded Maryland or third-seeded – and reigning national champion – Texas A&M. ~ With an enrollment of just 2,000, St. Bonaventure is the smallest school in Division I women’s basketball history to advance to the Sweet 16. Outside of Gonzaga, the Bonnies are the only team left in the tournament that is not a member of a BCS conference.

~ St. Bonaventure also has the youngest coaching staff left in the tournament, combining to average just 29 years and 6 months of age. Jim Crowley (41 years, 5 months, 21 days) is one of the youngest head coach remaining in the field, while all three of his assistants are under the age of 26 (Kate Achter: 25 years, 10 months, 25 days; Priscilla Edwards: 25 years, 6 months, 11 days; Ryan Gensler: 24 years, 11 months, 12 days). ~ Bona is grouped in the Raleigh Region with three former national champions. Notre Dame won the title in 2001, while Marlyand claimed the 2006 crown and Texas A&M emerged victorious last year against Notre Dame in the championship game. ~ Bonaventure is just the third Atlantic 10 school to advance to the Sweet 16, joining George Washington (four appearances) and Xavier (two appearances). The Bonnies are the lone A-10 women’s team still playing as Temple fell to Syracuse in the WNIT Thursday night.

~Notre Dame and St. Bonaventure share three common opponents this year (Villanova, St. John’s, West Virginia). The Irish defeated Villanova and St. John’s, while the Bonnies split with those two – winning at St. John’s. Bonaventure defeated West Virginia, 56-48, on the road in November, while the Mountaineers handed Notre Dame its lone Big East loss, 65-63, at home last month. ~ The Fighting Irish average 79.2 points per game – second-best in the nation – while the Bonnies enter with the country’s 22nd-best defense (53.7 points per game). Bonaventure has not allowed a team to score 70 points in a game all season (season high is 69 by George Washington), while ND has cracked the 70-point threshold 27 times, including 120- and 128-point games. ~ Redshirt senior Armelia Horton is saving some of her best offensive games donning the Brown and White when they matter most. Over the tournament’s first two games, Horton has gone a collective 11-18 from the field. The 11 makes are the most over a two-game stretch of her career. The Harlem native went 6-12 en route to a 17-point performance in the First Round against Florida Gulf Coast before following that up with a 5-6 showing and 10-point effort versus Marist.

Three TimeS The ChariTySt. Bonaventure boasts three of the best five free-throw shooters in A-10 history in terms of made free throws in a career. Hilary Waltman, who grad-uated in 1999, ranks second on the all-time conference list with 588, Sue Shay, ’92, ranks third with 524 and Dana Mitchell, ’10, ranks fifth with 474. By owning three of the top five free throw shooters in a respective conference, Bonaventure is the only school in Division I history which holds that honor.

3-pOinT uWith her six 3-pointers against Charlotte on Jan. 21, Jessica Jenkins not only took sole possession of the program record in that category, but also the A-10 record. Jenkins currently has 338 made 3’s in her career. The school – and conference – record was 291, held by Suzie Dailer. Dailer, who played at Bona’s from 1992-95, actually shared the all-time league mark with Cathy Jones of George Washington. Additionally, 2006 SBU grad Stefanie Collins currently ranks fourth on that list with 288 3’s. With Jenkins becoming the leading 3-point shooter in A-10 history, St. Bona is the only school in the na-tion with three of the top four 3-point shooters (in terms of made field goals) in any respective conference in women’s basketball Division I history.

amOng The naTiOn’S eliTeSt. Bonaventure finished the 2011-12 campaign ranked among the nation’s best in several statistical categories. The Bonnies ranked in the top-10 in 3-point field-goal percentage (6th/38%) and turnovers per game (7th/13.8 per game). The Brown and White also ranked inside the top-50 in three other categories: scoring defense (23rd/55.2 per game); free-throw percentage (31st/74.4%); 3-point field goals per game (44th/6.8 per game).

a ‘BOna’ fiDe leagueThe A-10 finished the 2010-11 campaign ranked 7th among the 31 Division I conferences in the official NCAA RPI Report, ranking behind only the “Big 6” – Big 12, ACC, BIG EAST, SEC, Big Ten and Pac-10 (now Pac-12). However, no conference except the BIG EAST had MORE teams finish in the top 80 of the RPI than the A-10. The A-10 had eight schools in the top-80 – the same amount as the Big 12, Big Ten, ACC and SEC. St. Bonaventure finished 70th, and it was joined by Xavier (10), Temple (35), Charlotte (49), Dayton (50), Saint Joseph’s (68) and Richmond (77).

1,000-pOinT DuOSenior Jessica Jenkins became the 19th member of the 1,000 Point Club during a 23-point performance against West Virginia Nov. 18. Jenkins joined classmate Megan Van Tatenhove on the list as the Wisconsin native became the 18th member of the club last year in the opening round of the Atlantic 10 Championship.

DefenSive prOweSSFor the second consecutive year in 2010-11, St. Bonaventure led the A-10 in scoring defense. SBU held its opponents to an average of 55.2 points per game, one season after leading the A-10 at 54.1 points per outing. While five other schools in history have led the conference in scoring defense back-to-back years, no school has been as stringent as the Brown and White. The 54.6 combined scoring defense average the last two years by the Bonnies is THE BEST by any school in consecutive years in the history of the A-10.

BirThDay girlSNot only are Jessica Jenkins and Megan Van Tatenhove St. Bonaventure’s two leading scorers, but they also share the same birthday: May 11, 1990.

3-pOinT effiCienCy aT iTS aBSOluTe BeSTFor the fourth consecutive season in 2010-11, St. Bonaventure led the Atlantic 10 in 3-point field goal percentage, connecting at a 38.2-percent clip (224-587). By leading the A-10 in 3-point shooting percentage four straight years, St. Bonaventure is the only school in the history of Division I women’s basketball to lead a conference in that category for four straight seasons. In 2009-10, the Bonnies shot 38.5 percent from 3-point range; in 2008-09 they shot 36.4 percent and in 2007-08 they also shot 36.4 percent. No other school in the A-10 has accomplished this feat more than two years in a row.

The Bonnies survived a last-gasp 3-pointer and defeated 13th-seeded Marist, 66-63, Tuesday night in the Second Round of the

tournament. They will face top-seeded Notre Dame (32-3) Sunday in Raleigh, N.C. at 2:30 p.m.

Senior Jessica Jenkins drilled six 3-pointers and scored 22 points, and sophomore Doris Ortega (13 points) grabbed 10 rebounds to lead a dominant performance on the boards by the fifth-seeded Bonnies, who out-rebounded Marist, 40-26.

“Coach told me before the game I’d be able to crash the boards because they ball watch sometimes, and I knew how important those (extra) possessions could be,” said Ortega, who had five of SBU’s 15 offensive rebounds.

Coach Jim Crowley glanced at the box score and conceded the game was basically even -- except for the boards.

“If I had to pinpoint something that was key, that was it,” said Crowley, who was relieved his technical foul with 4:57 left and the Bonnies up by seven didn’t matter in the end.

Behind 16 points from Jenkins, the Bonnies took a 38-31 lead at half, but the Red Foxes rallied to take a 49-47 lead with 10:44 to play. Chelsea Bowker, though, hit a short jumper and buried a three, and Armelia Horton scored to cap a 7-0 run to give SBU a lead it wouldn’t relinquish.

STeppin’ upSophomore CeCe Dixon has stepped up this season and emerged as a viable scoring threat off head coach Jim Crowley’s bench. The guard has scored in double figures on 12 occasions this year after doing so just once all of last year. She has increased her scoring 60.7 percent from last year, going from just 99 total points in her freshman campaign to 252 already this season, while more than doubling her 3-pointers made (12 to 27). Ad-ditionally, the Queens native has not been shy to take the shot in the game’s waning mo-ments as she has attempted 32 shots in the last five minutes of games this year – more than anyone else on the team.

J.J. hiTS J’SJessica Jenkins currently has 110 made 3-pointers on the year, which checks in as the best total in a single season in program his-tory. Jenkins owned the previous record after she hit 100 last year in 33 games. The Ohio native also owns the fourth position on the list as she knocked down 89 in 2009-10.

reCOrD reverSalEntering the Sweet Sixteen, head coach Jim Crowley has coached just nine career games on the SBU sidelines (each of the last nine) in which he has had a career record at Bonaven-ture over .500. Crowley has gone 128-58 since the midway point of the 2006-07 season to get his record at Bona to 185-177. Prior to that time, Crowley had a career record of 57-119 at Bonaventure. (More on Page 9)

all-Time win leaDerSThe senior class of Jessica Jenkins, Megan Van Tatenhove, Armelia Horton and Jennie Ashton is the all-time winningest class in school histo-ry, earning their 98th career victory with a win

over Marist in the NCAA Tournament Second Round. Additionally, with 116 wins, redshirt senior Horton is the winningest player – either men’s or women’s – in Bonaventure basket-ball history. The senior class surpassed the 2011 group as the winningest in program his-tory as Cara Gustafson and Amanda Johnson graduated with 85 victories.

nOT QuiTe a ‘minuTe’ DeTailCertified personal trainer Jessica Jenkins has been – by comparison to her teammates – a workhorse for the Bonnies this year as she averages a team-high 32.1 minutes a game. Sophomore Doris Ortega is the next closest as she averages 27.1 minutes per game. In A-10 games the disparity was even more drastic as Jenkins played 33.7 minutes a contest, while senior Megan Van Tatenhove checked in as the next closest at 26.8 minutes.

1k pOinTS & 600 BOarDSAs part of a six-rebound performance against Saint Joseph’s in the A-10 semifinals, senior Megan Van Tatenhove became just the fifth member of the program’s 1,000 Point & 600 Rebound Club. The Wisconsin native is the first Bona player to join the club since Dana Mitchell in 2010, and she currently has 1,450 points (6th all-time) and 618 rebounds (8th all-time).

pOSSeSSiOn iS nine-TenThSThe Bonnies commit just 12 turnovers per game – best in the nation – but they are even more stingy with the ball when the game is on the line. Of their 407 giveaways, 221 have come in the first half (54.2 percent) while 186 have come in the final 20 minutes. Additionally, in the final five minutes the Bonnies have committed just 42 turnovers, and in their 13 road contests in the final five minutes, they have given the ball away just seven times.

CluTCh laTeMuch like the late-game possession, Bonaventure connects from the free-throw line in pressure moments compared with their opponents. Currently 19th in the nation at 75.7 percent as a team from the line, the Bonnies are 135-184 (73.4 percent) in the final five minutes of games while their opponents are just 82-109 (75.2 percent). The Bonnies are 46-66 (69.7 percent) from the stripe in the last five minutes of their road games, while those home teams are just 29-43 (67.4 percent).

SCOring marginThe Bonnies have a scoring margin of +11 on the year – best in the league and one of only two A-10 teams with a positive double-figure scoring margin. SBU averages 64.7 points per game and allows just 53.7. West Virginia is the only school in the nation which has a greater scoring margin which averages fewer points per game than St. Bonaventure. The Moun-taineers average 63.8 points per game and allow just 52 to create their +11.8 margin.

DiverSifying her gameSenior Jessica Jenkins – one of the best 3-point shooters in the nation – has gradually diversified her scoring game since stepping foot on campus. As a freshman, 77.4 percent of Jenkins’ 151 points came off 3-pointers. She lowered that percentage to 71.7 her sophomore year, decreased it even further to

69.2 her junior campaign and this season it’s at an all-time low of 68 percent. What’s more impressive is that Jenkins has increased her scoring average and 3-pointers made each season. She’s the current Atlantic 10 Conference 3-point record holder as she has hit 338 in her career.

a.w. iS a-OkJunior Alaina Walker – one of the team’s best defensive players – has proven to be an offensive weapon as well this year. Against Sacred Heart on Jan. 3 she tallied a career-high 18 points, and followed that up with an 11-point performance against Duquesne on Jan. 7. The back-to-back double-figure point games represent the first time Walker has done that this season and just the second time in her career. The other came last year on Jan. 29 against Massachusetts and Feb. 2 opposite Dayton when she netted 11 and 10, respectively.

Big 4 DOminanCeSt. Bonaventure has won 15 straight games over Big 4 rivals. The 15 consecutive victories is the longest such streak in the history of Big 4 women’s basketball. The Bonnies have not lost to a Big 4 school since Nov. 19, 2006, when the University at Buffalo defeated them at the St. Bonaventure Shootout, 67-59.

Nov. 20, Bonaventure got off to a 4-0 start for the sixth time in school history. Five of those six occasions have come in the last seven years. The only other season a Bona team got off to a 4-0 start was the 1992-93 club.

DOuBle-DigiT TrenDWith its victory against Marist on Dec. 18, the Brown and White extended its streak to six straight years of double-digit regular-season non-conference wins. The stretch is currently the longest in program history. The only other season aside from the previous five years that SBU claimed double-digit non-league wins in the

5

nCaa TOurnamenT regiOnal rOunD marCh 25 & 27, 2012

regular season was 1992-93 when it won 11.

She’S nOT prOBaBleJessica Jenkins has started 100 straight games, dating back to the beginning of her sophomore season in 2009-10. Megan Van Tatenhove had started 58 consecutive contests, dating back to the middle of the 2009-10 year, but had that streak stopped Dec. 16 against Niagara due to a head injury. Jenkins’ stretch currently ranks as the sixth-longest in the nation. Here are the players ahead of her:

C’eira Rickets: Arkansas – 121Andrea Holmes: Binghamton – 119Courtney Lumpkin: Morehead State – 119Megan Richardson: Cal State Fullerton – 112Katie Bussey: Montana State – 104

nyC pipelineThe 2011-12 Bonnies boast four players from New York City, all from Queens and Harlem: fresh-man Tatiana Wilson; sophomores CeCe Dixon and Doris Ortega; redshirt senior Armelia Horton. Additionally, Dixon, Ortega and Horton all went to the same high school, Murry Bergtraum.

a numBer SayS a lOT52.9 percent of 12th-year head coach Jim Crow-ley’s wins at St. Bonaventure have come in the last 4 years. Crowley, who took over prior to the 2000-01 season, has won 98 of his 185 games at Bonaventure since the start of the 2008-09 campaign. Furthermore, Crowley won his 200th career game Dec. 7 vs. Indiana.

DiD yOu knOw?St. Bonaventure is one of only three schools in A-10 history with two players who have scored 2,000 or more points. Hilary Waltman, 1996-99, checks in at No. 7 on the all-time list with 2,106 points, while Dana Mitchell, 2007-10, is No. 11 with 2,011 points. Xavier, which occupies the No. 4 and 5 slots, and Saint Joseph’s, which owns the No. 3 and 8 positions, are the only other A-10 schools with multiple 2,000-point scorers.

lOve frOm eSpnIn the most recent ESPN.com Mid-Major Rankings on Feb. 13, Graham Hays ranks the Bonnies 2nd among the non-BCS conference teams. Here’s what Hays had to say: The Bonnies remain per-fect in 2012, and the math starts to look pretty simple to complete a perfect conference season and claim the No. 1 seed in the Atlantic 10 tour-nament. Along with an earlier win at Temple, Feb. 11’s 56-55 win at Dayton might have been the most impressive of the conference slate (although those nonconference road wins at West Virginia and St. John’s also gained some sheen after those teams went to Notre Dame and Rutgers, respec-tively, and won on Feb. 12). Against Dayton, the Bonnies got just three points from Jessica Jen-kins, but showed they have other go-to options (17 points, 8 rebounds by Megan Van Tatenhove) and plenty of depth (13 points off the bench from CeCe Dixon).

Career afTernOOnSenior Jessica Jenkins established a career high in points when she netted 33 in the regular-season finale last year in a win against Charlotte. As part of those 33 points, the Marion, Ohio product set a program record by knocking down nine 3-pointers. Not only did that give her the school record, but it also tied her with three others for the A-10 record for made 3’s in a game.

leaDerS OnCe againFor the second straight year in 2010-11, St. Bonaventure led the A-10 in free-throw percentage, connect-ing at a 74.4-percent clip. In 2009-10, the Bonnies shot 79.8 percent from the charity stripe, and that per-centage ranks as the second highest in conference history behind only the 81.5 percent Saint Joseph’s shot in 2000-01. St. Bona is the first school to defend its free-throw percentage crown since Saint Joe’s in 2000-01 and 2001-02. Furthermore, last season was the eighth time in history that the Bonnies have led the A-10 in free-throw percentage, and that is the most of any school in the history of the conference.

BOmBS awayAs a team, St. Bonaventure made 16 3-pointers in its regular-season finale last year against Charlotte, paced by a program-record nine from Jessica Jenkins. That total ranks as the sec-ond highest in the history of the A-10 in a single game, bested only by the 17 Xavier knocked down against McNeese State in 2007. However, in conference games only, the 16 3’s by the Bon-nies beat the previous record of 14 held by Richmond in a 2008 game against Massachusetts.

inSiDe-OuT reTurning COmBOSenior forward Megan Van Tatenhove returns as the second-leading scorer in the A-10 after averaging 14.5 points per game last year, while senior guard Jessica Jenkins returns as the leading 3-point shooter in the conference after knocking down 100 3’s last campaign. However, in conference games only, Van Tatenhove averaged 16.2 points per game, tying her with Dayton’s Justine Raterman as the league’s highest-returning scorer in that category. Jenkins averaged 13.1 points per outing, making her and Van Tatenhove one of just two sets of returning teammates in the A-10 who averaged 13 or more points per game last year. The other is the senior duo of Shey Peddy (14.1) and Kristen McCarthy (13.2) from Temple.

UPCOMING SCHEDULE/RESULTS

naTiOnal reCOgniTiOnIn addition to its current ranking in the na-tional polls, the Bonnies received votes in the Associated Press Poll for six weeks earlier this year (Dec. 19, 26; Jan. 9, 16, 23, 30). Bona also received votes in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll for three weeks (Jan. 24, 31; Feb. 7). With their initial ranking in the Associated Press Poll on Feb. 6, the Bonnies became just the fourth Division I women’s basketball team in history from New York State to appear in the rankings, joining Syracuse, St. John’s and Marist. Bonaventure was the 150th school to be ranked in the AP Poll, and head coach Jim Crowley became the 246th coach with a ranked team.

a very merry DeCemBer & a happy new yearFor the first time in program history, St. Bo-naventure won seven games in the month of December. The Bonnies went 7-1, with the only setback coming to -/rv Villanova at a neutral site. They then followed that up with a program-best 8-0 mark in January.

TOugh, BuT SuCCeSSful, SleDDingA challenging non-conference slate precluded the always-difficult A-10 docket as the Bonnies faced eight teams which made postseason appearances last year, including three which advanced to the Second Round of the NCAA Tournament. The Bonnies went an

impressive 7-1 against those teams, including a resounding 3-0 mark against schools which went to the Second Round of the NCAA Tournament last season (St. John’s; West Virginia; Marist).

familiar fOeSOf St. Bonaventure’s 15 non-conference games, 11 were against teams the Bonnies squared off with last year. SBU went 7-4 in those games last year, but this year it avenged all those losses as it defeated No. 25/rv St. John’s in the season opener, won at West Virginia, 56-48, downed Morgan State, 79-55, and defeated Indiana, 65-45.

Can’T TeaCh experienCeJessica Jenkins has played in more games than any other true senior in the A-10. The Ohio native has logged action in every single game since her freshman year, and currently has 134 appearances. Here are the closest games-played competitors for true seniors in the conference:

Casey Nance: Dayton – 130Kristen McCarthy: Temple – 130Becky Peters: Fordham – 120

rOaD warriOrSWith its win at Rhode Island on Feb. 25, St. Bonaventure extended its road record to 13-0 for the 2011-12 season for the first time in program history. Bonaventure has had a winning road

record in each of the last four seasons. The only other year beside the last four that happened was when the 1991-92 club went 7-6 away from the Reilly Center. Over the last five years, including this season, Bona is an impressive 47-25 on the road.

prOgram hiSTOryThe win over No. 25/rv St. John’s on Nov. 12 was the program’s first ever road victory against a nationally ranked team and just the third over a nationally ranked team in school history. The other two triumphs both came at home – against No. 14/13 George Washington, 63-60, on Feb. 16, 2008, and opposite No. 21/24 Michigan State, 63-52, on Dec. 7, 2008. The win over the Red Storm was also the program’s first over a BCS opponent since it won at Wisconsin, 56-51, in the Third Round of the WNIT on March 26, 2009.

gOOD frOm The STarTWith its victory against No. 25/rv St. John’s, the Brown and White has now won seven straight season openers, dating back to a 73-70 loss to Colgate to kick off the 2004-05 year. Furthermore, St. Bona has not lost a road game to start the season since head coach Jim Crowley’s first year at the helm of the Bonnies in 2000-01 – a 97-75 loss against Cincinnati. The current streak of seven consecutive season-opening victories is the longest in program history.

The gang’S all BaCkSt. Bonaventure returns all five starters and 92 percent of its offense from a team which went 21-12 and finished 9-5 in the Atlantic 10, advancing to its third straight Women’s National Invitation Tournament. The Bonnies finished tied for 3rd in the conference – their best-ever showing in the A-10 – and won 20+ games for the third consecutive season. Bonaventure is now one of just five A-10 schools which has won 20 or more games three straight years, joining Temple, Xavier, Dayton and Duquesne.

a-10 prOgnOSTiCaTiOnSDespite returning nearly all its scoring, St. Bonaventure was picked to finish 6th in the A-10 in preseason voting conducted by the league’s 14 head coaches. Senior Megan Van Tatenhove – who entered the year as the A-10’s second-leading returning scorer – was named to the Preseason First Team. Classmate Jessica Jenkins – who broke the

7

A-10 record for career 3-pointers earlier this year – was tabbed to the Preseason Third Team.

welCOme TO The BOna familyThe 2011-12 women’s basketball season is in progress, but the team is already building for the future as five players have signed a National Letter of Intent to join the Bonnies beginning in the 2012-13 season. The five who committed to join head coach Jim Crowley’s club are: Kelcie Rombach (Ottawa, Ill./Ottawa Township), Gabby Richmond (Chicago, Ill./Morgan Park), Katie Healy (Lancaster, N.Y./Sacred Heart Academy), Nyla Rueter (Hagerstown, Ind./Hagerstown) and Hannah Little (Rochester Hills, Mich./Auburn Hills Avondale).

Jim Crowley enters his 12th season as head coach and 16th overall year on the St. Bonaven-ture bench in the 2011-12 season.

Under Crowley’s guidance, the Bonnies have developed into a consistently competitive and hard-working unit on and off the court. His dedi-cation and commitment to the program has es-tablished a strong foundation of future success for the Brown and White. Crowley’s passion for the game has proved to be contagious as his en-ergy and desire to win is evident every time his team steps on the floor.

For the third straight year in 2010-11, Crowley guided his team to a 20-win season, finish-ing with a 21-12 record and trip to the Second Round of the Women’s National Invitation Tour-nament (WNIT). St. Bonaventure finished tied for 3rd in the always-competitive Atlantic 10 Confer-ence with a 9-5 record.

The season was the third-best in program his-tory, bested only by the 2009-10 and 2008-09 seasons in which the Brown and White tallied 23 wins in each. The Bonnies set a program single-season record for 3-pointers made in 2010-11 by knocking down 224 – 32 more than the sec-ond-best year in 2008-09.

In the 2009-10 campaign, the Bonnies tied a program record set the year before with 23 wins, including a program-record 21 regular-season

wins. They advanced to the WNIT for the second consecutive year, and in the process became just one of five A-10 schools to have four consecutive winning seasons.

The team opened the season with 11 consecu-tive wins – the longest winning streak in program history. It also finished in the top 10 in the nation in four different categories: free-throw percent-age (80.3/5th), 3-point percentage (38.5/7th), turnovers (13.6/7th) and scoring defense (52.7/9th).

Following a season in which the club tallied an all-time school record with 23 wins, Crowley and the Bonnies have launched themselves into a promising position for the future. For the 2008-09 season, Crowley was named Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year. He is the first coach in pro-gram history to win coach of the year. He also earned the New Balance - Basketball Coaches Association of New York (BCANY), Women’s Divi-sion I Coach of the Year.

Crowley has turned in his finest coaching per-formances on the sidelines in the last four sea-sons after directing the Bonnies to a combined 80 victories since the beginning of the 2006-07 campaign.

The 2008-09 season was one of the most suc-cessful campaigns in St. Bonaventure history, as the Bonnies broke the previous win record

by five. Crowley guided the Brown and White to their first postseason appearance and highlighted it with two wins against Big East foe West Virginia and Big Ten contender Wisconsin.

In 2008, the Bonnies beat No. 24/23 Michigan State for the third time in program history. After the victory, St. Bonaventure received a vote in the AP Top 25 poll for the first time in program history. The team’s 15-5 start was the best start after 20 games since the pro-gram’s inception.

The Bonnies won nine Atlantic 10 games in the 2008-09 season, including wins against Temple and Char-lotte, setting a program record for most conference wins in a single season. The 55-52 victory against Tem-ple was the first win against the Owls in seven years.

St. Bonaventure finished the season in a four-way tie for fourth place in the A-10 with its 9-5 conference record. Its seventh seed in the 2009 A-10 Champion-ships tied the 2007-08 club with the highest ranking in the tournament since 1996-97.

Following a record-setting season on the court, a pair of Bonnies received postseason recognition from the Atlantic 10. Dana Mitchell earned a spot on the All-Conference Second Team for the second year, while Katelyn Murray earned a spot on the Academic All-Con-ference squad for the second consecutive year.

Under the tutelage of Crowley, Mitchell developed into one of the premier players in the conference. Mitch-ell ranks 2nd on the all-time Bona scoring chart with 2,011 career points, and holds five program records, including being the only member of the 2,000-point and 700-rebound club.

The Brown and White jumped out of the 2007-08 open-ing tip to the tune of a then program-best 11-2 start before finishing non-conference play with a then all-time high of 12 victories heading into Atlantic 10 ac-tion. Crowley led the Bonnies to their highest league finish since 1996-97 as the team exceeded preseason expectations with a seventh-place finish. The club’s six league triumphs were the most since 2001-02.

Crowley and Bonnies achieved great success despite taking on a heavy road schedule, including a 10-game span away from the Reilly Center. The Brown and White notched the fifth most true road triumphs in the nation with 10, and matched the longest road winning streak in school history with six. The club’s 18-win season was highlighted by a 63-60 upset of No. 14/13 George Washington on Bob Lanier Court. The victory marked the program’s second ever win over a nationally ranked opponent in the 37-year history of women’s basketball at St. Bonaventure.

Following a record-setting season on the court, a pair of Bonnies earned postseason honors from the Atlantic 10. Mitchell followed up an All-Rookie campaign with a selection to the All-Conference Second Team, while Murray earned a spot on the Academic All-Conference squad. For her sophomore performance, Mitchell be-came the third Bonnie and fifth sophomore ever to lead the conference in scoring thanks to an 18.1 point per game average.

wilSOn family funD raiSeS nearly $20,000The St. Bonaventure Department of Athletics, in conjunction with University Ministries, has collected nearly $20,000 as part of the Wilson Family Assistance Program for freshman women’s basketball player Tatiana Wil-son.

University officials established the fund in December to help Wilson’s family, whose house in Far Rockaway, Queens, was destroyed by fire early in the morning Dec. 13.

University Ministries accepted almost $19,000 in cash and checks and nearly $1,000 in gift cards. Additionally, 15 large boxes containing clothes, toiletries and other supplies were donated to the family.

“I want to thank the St. Bonaventure University and Olean communities from the bottom of my heart for all their support and contributions to our family over the past month,” Temeka Wilson, Tatiana’s mother, said. “Our family is very blessed to be alive, and the generosity and kindness of those who helped outside of western New York is also very much appreciated. We are extremely grateful for all donations, phone calls and well-wishes that were made, and I just want to say ‘thank you’ one more time.”

Wilson’s mother and five younger siblings jumped from their second-story home into the arms of New York City Sanitation Department workers, who saw the flames from a distance and called 911. Temeka broke her back while trying to escape, sister Amari, 12, suffered a broken leg and sister Shaina, 17, suffered third-degree burns. The family lost everything in the fire.

For those who would still like to donate to the family, cash/checks may be mailed to the following address:
