UAlbany Athletics
The University at Albany athletics program continued its success in the 2005-06 athletic year. With
momentum from the 2004-05 Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner’s Cup, which recognizes the stron-
gest athletic program in the America East Conference, the Great Danes captured five conference
championships, two regular-season championships, and saw numerous student-athletes garner indi-
vidual accolades, including five All-America honorees.
UAlbany won America East championships in men’s basketball, men’s indoor and outdoor track &
field, women’s outdoor track & field, and softball. In addition, the Great Danes were runners-up in
women’s indoor track & field and men’s lacrosse. Volleyball and men’s basketball also won confer-
ence regular-season titles, led by America East Conference Player of the Years and All-Americans
Blair Buchanan and Jamar Wilson, respectively.
In addition, men’s basketball made its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, becoming
the first Division | program in the State University of New York system to accomplish the
feat. Building on the mantra “Why not us?” the Great Danes nearly became the first 16-seed
to topple a one-seed when they faced the University of Connecticut. Softball became the first women’s
program to make back-to-back trips to NCAA post-season play, while Gered Burns, Joe Greene
and Marc Pallozzi became the first Division | track & field All-Americans for the Great Danes.
UAlbany sponsors 19 NCAA Division | intercollegiate athletic programs, with 18 teams competing
in the America East Conference. Football, a Division I-AA program, has been an associate member of
the Northeast Conference since 1999.

UALBANY
ATHLETICS
The University at Albany and its
intercollegiate athletics program con-
tinue to move forward inthe 21stcentury.
UAlbany's athletic teams are begin-
ning their eighth year of competition at
the National Collegiate Athletic
Association's Division | level. The up-
grade began in September 1999 and
elevated all men's and women's pro-
grams, and placed football in the
NCAA's Division I-AA classification.
In 2001, UAlbany accepted an invitation to become a
member of the America East Conference. Eighteen of the
school's nineteen varsity teams are eligible through America
East play for conference championships and NCAA post-
season competition. Football, as a Division I-AA program, has
been a Northeast Conference associate member since 1999.
UAlbany has won 17 conference championships since
moving to Division |. In 2005-06, the Great Danes captured
America East titles in men's basketball, men's and women's
outdoor track & field, men's indoor track and softball. The
basketball team produced one of the most significant achieve-
ments in the school's intercollegiate history. The program's
turnaround from two years ago resulted in a strong showing
against No. 2 Connecticut in the NCAA Tournament.
In 2004-05, UAlbany was awarded the Stuart P. Haskell, Jr.
Commissioner's Cup, which annually recognizes the strongest
athletic program in the America East Conference based on
success both during the regular season and at championship
competition. UAlbany's point total was bolstered by America
East titles in volleyball, men's lacrosse, men's outdoor track and
field and softball. The Great Danes were also runners-up in
men's indoor track and field and women's golf.
In addition, the UAlbany men's lacrosse program secured
its third consecutive NCAA berth. Volleyball and softball be-
came the first women's sports to qualify for NCAA Division |
post-season play. Meanwhile, Kurt Campbell became the first
UAlbany football player to be selected in the NFL Draft when he
went in the seventh round to the Green Bay Packers.
UAlbany has an athletic history that dates back to the late
1890s when the first known intercollegiate teams arrived on
campus. Albany competed at the college division level prior to
the NCAA's restructuring in 1972. The athletic program moved
from Division III to Division II in 1995-96.
UAlbany's intercollegiate program has a new direction, but
continues to excel in the athletic realm, producing competitive
teams, successful coaches, and outstanding student-athletes
recognized for their accomplishments both on the field and in
the classroom. The University sponsors 19 varsity sports for
men and women. Club sports, an intramural program and
recreational opportunities are also offered.
The quality of UAlbany’s athletic program is evidenced by
some of the finest facilities in the nation. The indoor and outdoor
physical education design is among the most comprehensive
in the Northeast.
In the spring of 1992, the University opened the Recreation
and Convocation Center (RACC), an $11 million state-of-the-
art facility. The RACC is the home for UAlbany’s men’s and
women's basketball teams, and has an .11 mile indoor track.
UAlbany's athletic facilities include the RACC, University Gym, University Field, and The Bubble.
The 5,000-seat arena also serves as a major venue for commu-
nity events such as rock and pop concerts, sporting events and
University activities. The playing surface on the arena's three
basketball courts and the surrounding track was completely
renovated in December 2004.
In addition, the RACC contains a fitness center with Nautilus
and Universal machines, rowing ergometers and exercise bikes;
four racquetball/handball courts and four squash courts; athletic
training and rehabilitation facilities with three whirlpool baths, a
musculoskeletal evaluation device and other therapeutic ma-
chines.
Adjacent to the RACC is the Physical Education Building
which houses University Gym; three full-size playing surfaces
which can be used for basketball, volleyball, and tennis; four
racquetball/handball courts; four squash courts; a swimming
pool; a fitness and weight training center with Olympic weights;
an aerobic exercise room, and a dance studio.
The RACC and Physical Education Building were air-
conditioned in March 1996, as the state appropriated funds for
renovations and permanent improvements to the University's
facilities. The $2.3 million in funding was prompted by the New
York Giants’ decision to hold their football training camp on
campus. The project brought together the region's community in
what has proven to be a successful partnership.
In addition, UAlbany's air-supported structure, fitted with a
brand-new covering with minor interior renovations in the spring
of 2003, is located to the east of the Physical Education Building,
and may be utilized for tennis, basketball, volleyball, and indoor
football practice.
The indoor complex is complemented by fine outdoor facili-
ties, including University Field, which has football seating for
5,000, plus an all-weather, 400-meter track surrounding a natu-
ral grass surface. There are 12 lighted tennis courts and
numerous fields for football, soccer, softball, baseball, lacrosse,
field hockey, and other events.
The practice fields on the Western Avenue side of campus
were renovated in June 1996 with 263,000 square feet of two-
inch-thick athletic sod. The irrigation system was refurbished,
and the area was surrounded with a 3,100-foot chain-link fence.
UAlbany broke ground on the site of what has become two
all-weather athletic fields in May 2005. "John Fallon Field" is the
home to the men's and women's lacrosse teams, and features a
sand and rubber infill turf field that stretches 99,450 square feet.
An adjacent surface known as “Alumni Turf Field" is used for
women's field hockey in addition to serving as a multi-use
recreational field for UAlbany students. The first phase of the
complex's construction, which included lighting, landscaping
and fencing, was recently completed.

Will Brown is in his sixth season as
the University at Albany's head men's
basketball coach. In 2005-06, Brown led
the Great Danes to their first-ever NCAA
Division | Tournament berth after winning
both the America East Conference tour-
nament and regular-season titles.
UAlbany set the program's Division
| record for single-season victories with a
21-11 record and produced its highest win total since 1993-94.
His squad posted UAlbany's first postseason triumph in 11
years with three wins in America East tournament play. The
Great Danes, who also established their top conference mark
with 13 victories in the regular season, went on to put up a
monumental fight against second-ranked Connecticut in a
memorable NCAA first-round battle.
At the press conference to announce Brown's five-year
contract that keeps him as the UAlbany head coach through the
2010-11 season, Director of Athletics Lee McElroy made the
following statement, "Will Brown and his staff have done an
excellent job of building a young Division | basketball program.
Our student-athletes are following the right path both academi-
cally and athletically. The team accomplished many historical
things. The foundation has been laid for the program to be
successful for years to come, something that our students,
alumni and fans can enjoy with great pride."
In 2004-05, Coach Brown led UAlbany to a 13-15 record,
an eight-win improvement from the previous season. The
Great Danes registered their best-ever league record at the
time with a 9-9 mark anda fourth-place finish. UAlbany also tied
the fourth-best improvement among Division | teams which
recorded single-digit victories in 2003-04, as only Texas A&M,
San Diego and Houston were better.
Brown was appointed as UAlbany's head coach on March
13, 2002, and has worked on the collegiate level since 1995.
He became the 15th head coach in the history of the program.
Atage 35, Brownis one of the youngest Division | head coaches
in the nation.
Brown, who joined the UAlbany staff as an assistant in
Sept. 2001, was promoted to interim head coach on Dec. 20 of
that year, and guided the Great Danes to a 7-13 record over the
last 20 games. Albany was among the conference leaders in
scoring defense. He coached the team to several impressive
victories, including a win over Vermont, the America East
Conference's regular-season champion.
Brown previously served as the head coach at Sullivan
County Community College in Loch Sheldrake, N.Y., from
1998-2001. He led the Generals to a 90-10 record over a three-
year period with two regional and two district titles. Sullivan
County C.C. posted a 30-2 record and reached the National
Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) championship
game in 2000-01. Brown's first SCCC squad appeared in the
NJCAA "Final Four" and finished 32-3 overall. The Generals
were ranked second nationally in scoring at 92.9 points per
game, and ninth in team defense with a 67.1 average.
Brown was chosen the New York State Coaches Associa-
tion junior college coach of the year in 1999. He also earned Mid-
Hudson Conference coach of the year honors three times, and
was District V's top coach twice. In addition, he worked at
Sullivan County C.C. as an associate athletic director and as an
adjunct professor of sports management.
Previous to his appointment at Sullivan County C.C., Brown
spent three years at The College of Saint Rose as an assistant
coach on Brian Beaury's staff. The Golden Knights made two
NCAA Division II “Elite Eight" appearances in that span, and
captured three New York Collegiate Athletic Conference
(NYCAC) championships and two Northeast Regional crowns.
Saint Rose compiled an 88-13 record from 1995-98.
As a collegiate player, Brown was a two-time NYCAC all-
star and three-year starter at Dowling College, an NCAA Divi-
sion II program on Long Island. He is the only player in school
history to combine for more than 1,000 points and 500 assists.
Brown completed his career as Dowling's all-time leader in
assists (591), three-point field goals (181) and free throw per-
centage (.859). He also played second singles on the school's
tennis team.
Anative of Miller Place, N.Y., Brown earned first-team Class
B all-state recognition as a high school senior, when he aver-
aged more than 35 points per game. He was chosen All-Long
Island and was a three-time All-Suffolk County selection.
Coach Brown resides in Clifton Park with his wife, Jamie,
and their three-year-old son, Jackson. Brown has a master's
degree in management and a B.A. in marketing from Dowling
College. His father, William, Jr., has served as director of
athletics at Miller Place High School, where he previously was
head basketball coach for 17 years. His teams won three Suffolk
County League VII scholastic titles.
UALBANY | | BASKETBALL
COACH BROWN TALKS ABOUT:
Repeating As America East Champions: "It was very difficult
and challenging to win the championship last year. We face
similar obstacles this season, including a schedule that is as
difficult as we have had in Division |. We learned about expec-
tations last season. We know we have to have to bring a
workmanlike mentality to practice every day.
“| expect Vermont, with all five starters back, to challenge for
top players in the conference back in Kevin Reed. Bill Herrion
had done a tremendous job at New Hampshire and that team has
four starters returning."
His Coaching Philosophy: "Offensively, | would like to push the
basketball, put points on the scoreboard, plus get some points
from our defense. We intend to go up and down the floor. We
need to create easy baskets for ourselves, get second-chance
points, get to the free throw line and put pressure on our
opponents.
“| would like to guard man-to-man for forty minutes on
defense and limit teams to one shot every time down the floor.
We need to challenge shots on defense to be effective. It's one
thing to be tough and talented, but knowing how to play is the key
to success."
What Brown Looks For in a Recruit: "We want someone who
is a good person and a good student. He needs to be talented,
but also have a high basketball intelligence. It's important that
he knows the game, wants to get better and wants to win. | believe
too many coaches are caught up in the ‘great athlete’ concept of
recruiting.
“| would recruit anyone in the United States or world if |
thought he was the right fit for our program and we could put all
the pieces of the puzzle together. The University is a strong
academic school, so the student-athlete must want that chal-
lenge and realize that the school can prepare him for the future.
“Finally, | think we have to recruit people who want to be part
of something special, who want to win conference champion-
ships and get to the NCAAs every year."
What Albany Offers a Prospective Student-Athlete: "The
University provides an opportunity to obtain a meaningful edu-

onship and reached the NCAA Division |
Tournament for the first time.

aspects of the program, including recruiting, player develop-
ment and scouting. The Crusaders won the Patriot League
championship and reached the NCAA Tournament in three
consecutive seasons. In 2000-01, Holy Cross achieved one of
the greatest turnarounds in school history by posting a 22-8
record. The 2002-03 squad tied the program's standard for
most wins in a season with a 26-5 record.
During that period, Eaton recruited the Patriot League's
rookie of the year and assisted in the development of 15 players
who earned all-league and/or all-rookie recognition, including

UALBANY | 0 | BASKETBALL
It all came together for the Univer-
sity at Albany basketball program last
year, as the Great Danes shook off an
indifferent start to win 19 of their last 24
games. The results were an America
East Conference championship and
the school's first NCAA Division |
Tournament appearance.
Despite losing three players who
played a major role in that run to the
championship, UAlbany still has a solid
corps of players that could possibly
turn in a repeat performance.
“This is new territory for us," says
UAlbany coach Will Brown, who
signed a contract last spring that will
keep him at the school through the
2010-11 campaign. "We enjoyed the
taste of last season but now we want
more. Our team learned about
expectations last year and we will face
similar obstacles this season."
The Great Danes return three
starters, including the conference
player of the year, from a squad that
established the program's Division |
victory record and led national power
Connecticut deep into the second half
in an NCAA first-round game. The
roster features two seniors, six juniors,
two sophomores and four freshmen.
"We have a nice mix of veterans
and newcomers," Brown states. "We
are deep on the perimeter and can
play a variety of ways. Our team will be
paying attention to detail as we
prepare, especially with regard to
defense, rebounding and execution."
UALBANY BY POSITIONS
GUARDS: Any talk about UAlbany's
backcourt begins with Associated
Press All-America guard Jamar
Wilson, a difference-making player
who was named the 2006 America
East player of the year and the
championship's most outstanding
player. He averaged 17.7 points, 4.9
rebounds and 3.9 assists.
“When your best player is your
hardest-working player then you have
a chance to be successful," Brown
states. "Jamar makes plays and loves
a challenge with his fearless style. The
bigger the game, the better he is."
Wilson, who totaled 19 points and
six rebounds in his team's first-ever
NCAA appearance, also picked up
valuable experience on a collegiate
all-star tour of France in August.
“He came back from that trip with a
great appreciation for this program,"
Brown explains about Wilson, who is
wthin range of becoming the school's
all-time leading scorer during the
season. "His teammates knew about
UAlbany and what the basketball team
was able to accomplish last year."
While Wilson is a marquee per-
former, Brian Lillis, a 6-foot-5 junior, is
the glue that holds the team together.
All UAlbany did was win after Lillis was
inserted into the starting lineup at the
lead guard spot last December. His
numbers are not dramatic, but he does
something in every category.
“He can play almost every position
on the floor and competes with great
energy," says Brown about a player
who contributed 4.4 points, 4.2
rebounds and 2.1 assists per outing.
“He has the ability to expand his game
and has been encouraged to be more
aggressive on offense."
Jon lati, a sharp-shooter with a
quick release, and Jason Siggers
(6'4") were proven scorers off the
bench last season. lati scored at a 6.7
clip and drillied 40 three-point field
goals. Siggers, who played in all 32
games in his first year with the pro-
gram, averaged 5.0 points and
improved as the season progressed.
“Jon is as good a shooter as there
is in the conference," Brown states.
“You know you are deep when he is
coming off the bench. | defended Jason
(Siggers) as well as anyone last year
because | didn't play him enough early
on. He could be a consistent double-
figure scorer for us."
The Great Danes dipped into the
junior colleges for depth with the
addition of backcourt players Michael
Knight (6'3") and Carl Ross (6'4").
Knight made 41 three-pointers in the
Florida JUCO ranks as an all-region
performer. Ross, an explosive athlete,
averaged 13.7 points as an all-
conference star in California. David
Bauman (6'2") and freshman Lance
James (5'11") are available here.
FORWARDS: The Great Danes also
return an All-America East player in the
frontcourt. Brent Wilson, a 6-foot-8
junior, made the all-conference third
team in 2005-06. He averaged 10.4
points and 4.3 rebounds, plus led the
team with 56 three-point field goals.
"He's ready to build on his suc-
cesses over the last two years," Brown
offers. "He is the best shooting big man
in the conference, and has developed
his post play by adding a jump hook
with either hand."
Brian Connelly (6'8") showed a
tremendous upside to his play as a
Senior Guard/Forward Jason Siggers
freshman. He even saw quality minutes
in all three America East postseason
tournament contests.
“He is a skilled four-man who could
steal minutes at the ‘five’ spot," Brown
says. "He has an excellent mid-range
game and has spent a lot of time in the
weight room."
Mike Yocum, a 6'9" freshman, may
also get an opportunity to play on the
baseline with his athleticism. Freshman
Reid Anderson (6'5") will move between
the two-guard and small forward
positions, plus can do a little bit of
everything with his active style.
CENTERS: UAlbany will have to
replace a key component to last year's
success, as 7-foot-1 Kirsten Zoellner has
graduated to the Greek professional
league. Sophomore Jimmie Covington
(6'7") and Brett Gifford, a 6-foot-11
freshman, are the immediate options.
Covington, who spelled Zoellner last
year, has both the size and strength to
play center and the experience of
appearing in 31 games last year.
Gifford, an all-state selection in Missouri,
brings a solid set of offensive skills.
“Jimmie is a more confidence player
and has used the offseason to his
advantage," Brown comments. “Brett
has a nice touch with both hands around
the basket but will have to get accli-
mated to the college game's pace."
OUTLOOK: UAlbany's rise has come
in defined steps over the previous
seasons, and now comes the business
of defending a title. “Repeating is tough,
but that comes with doing something for
the first time," Brown explains. "We
welcome the new challenge with open
arms. Ina league like the America East,
there is no room for error. We need to
put ourselves in a good position to take
care of business in conference play."

AMERICA EAST: UAlbany is in its sixth year as a member of the
America East Conference. Eighteen of the school's 19 intercol-
legiate teams compete for conference championships and NCAA
post-season play. The America East basketball membership
includes UAlbany, Binghamton, Boston University, Hartford,
Maine, UMBC, New Hampshire, Stony Brook and Vermont.
UAlbany elevated its entire men's and women's athletics pro-
gram to the Division | level in the 1999-2000 academic year.
SCHEDULE HIGHLIGHTS: UAlbany begins its America East
schedule on Jan. 3 against New Hampshire and concludes the
season with the America East Conference Tournament on March
2-10. The non-conference schedule is highlighted by high-
lighted by a trip to Storrs, Conn., where the Great Danes will meet
perennial national power Connecticut on Nov. 26 in a rematch
of last year's thrilling NCAA first-round contest. UAlbany will also
travel to the state of Utah for a pair of games on Dec. 28 and 30
against the University of Utah and Utah Valley State. The Great
Danes will participate in the BracketBusters series for the second
consecutive year on Feb. 16-17. The annual meeting with Siena
is slated for Saturday, Dec. 2 at Pepsi Arena. Other non-league
opponents include Ivy League foes Harvard and Cornell.
ATTRACTIVE HOME SLATE: The Great Danes open at home
against two-time defending Patriot League champion Bucknell
on Nov. 11. The Bison, who have won their NCAA first-round
game the last two years, finished No. 25 in the coaches' national
poll in 2005-06. Virginia Commonwealth, Delaware, Brown, St.
Bonaventure and conference-rival Binghamton, this year's op-
ponent for Big Purple Growl (Feb. 3), are also at the RACC.
BRACKETBUSTERS: UAlbany has been invited to participate
in the ESPN BracketBusters series on Feb. 16-17, 2007. The
Great Danes are among 102 teams representing 16 conferences
in the event. Pairing decisions for the 13 televised games on the
ESPN family of networks will be announced on Jan. 28. The
schedule for the remaining 38 contests will be known on Feb. 5.
CROSSTOWN RIVALRY: UAlbany and Siena renewed their
crosstown rivalry in 2001 at Pepsi Arena, a 15,500-seat down-
town facility. The two schools had not met since 1976-77. The
Saints hold a 27-18 lead in a series that dates back to Jan. 1940.
CHAMPIONS: The Great Danes put together their most cel-
ebrated season at the Division | level last year after the program
won just five games and finished last in the America East
Conference standings in 2003-04. UAlbany captured the America
East regular-season and tournament championships and
reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time. UAlbany's 21-
11 overall record represented the most victories since 1993-94.
The Great Danes set the program's Division | marks for confer-
ence wins (13), home victories (10) and wins on the road (8).
COACH BROWN: Hired as one of the youngest head coaches
in the nation, Will Brown was named the 2006 New York State
Basketball Coaches Association's Coach of the Year after lead-
ing UAlbany to the America East Conference championship and
NCAA berth. Brown, 35, was the head coach at Sullivan County
Community College in upstate New York and an assistant at
Division I! College of Saint Rose prior to his arrival on campus.
HOME FLOOR: UAlbany's Recreation and Convocation Center
opened in December 1992. The on-campus facility has seating
for 5,000. UAlbany has a combined 105-63 record in the arena.
Last year, the Great Danes posted a 10-3 mark at home.
UAlbany averaged 2,541 fans in 13 home dates.
ACROSS AMERICA: The basketball roster is represented by
11 states. Three players are from Pennsylvania, while a pair of
high school standouts are from lowa. UAlbany has one player
from California, Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio, Texas and Washington.
TWENTY: UAlbany reached the 20-win mark for the first time
since 1993-94 with a 21-11 record last year. The Great Danes
set a record for victories by going 25-3 overall in that season.
UAlbany has posted eleven 20-win campaigns in its history.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR: The Great Danes' Jamar Wilson was
voted the 2006 America East Conference Player of the Year by
the league's head coaches. Wilson, who averaged 17.7 points
and 3.9 assists, joined a select group of players who have
earned the America East's player and rookie awards during a
career. The list includes Taylor Coppenrath (Vermont), T.J.
Sorrentine (Vermont), Tunji Awojobi (Boston U.) and former
Boston Celtics’ standout Reggie Lewis (Northeastern).
ONE THOUSAND: UAlbany earned its 1,000th win as a basket-
ball program on Dec. 20, 2005. The Great Danes have a 1,018-
748 record in 92 seasons of competition. UAlbany began varsity
play in 1909-10 and competed at the NAIA, NCAA College
Division, and NCAA Division II & Division III levels prior to 1999.
ALL-LEAGUE: UAlbany's Brent Wilson was voted to the All-
America East Conference third team as a sophomore. Wilson,
who averaged 10.4 points and 4.3 rebounds, led the Great
Danes with 56 three-point field goals. He was named the
America East all-championship squad after scoring at a 12.0 clip
in three wins. Wilson was on the 2005 A-East all-rookie team.
X-FACTOR: Junior Brian Lillis became a key contributor to
UAlbany's title run once he was inserted into the starting lineup.
The Great Danes won 19 of their last 24 games after that point.
He averaged 4.4 points and 4.2 rebounds on the season.
THREE FOR IATI: UAlbany guard Jon lati ranks sixth on the
school's all-time list with 124 three-pointers made. lati, the 2004
America East Rookie of the Year, has the ability to score in
bunches as evidenced by his 23-point outing vs. No. 16 UCLA.
NEW GUYS: UAlbany has six new faces on the roster, including
junior college transfers Michael Knight (6'3") and Carl Ross
(6'4"). Knight, who played at UMBC in 2004-05, comes from St.
Petersburg College in Florida. Ross, who originally attended
Fresno State, transferred from San Joaquin Delta College. Reid
Anderson (6'5"), Brett Gifford (6'11"), Lance James (5'11") and
Mike Yocum (6'9") were standout high school players.
NCAA STATS: UAlbany ranked among the NCAA leaders in
two categories last year. The Great Danes were 45th in 3-point
field goal percentage (.379) and 73rd in scoring defense (64.5
ppg). Jamar Wilson was 35th in free throw percentage (.850).
BIG PURPLE GROWL: The 10th Big Purple Growl and Fero-
cious Feast is scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 3. UAlbany's Winter
Homecoming will feature a men's and women's doubleheader
against America East opponent Binghamton. Last year's capac-
ity crowd of 4,538 was the largest in the event's history.

UALBANY WINS AMERICA EAST
Jamar Wilson scored 29 points in lead-
ing UAlbany to its first-ever America East
Conference championship and NCAA
Division | tournament berth in an 80-67
victory over Vermont before a capacity
crowd of 4,538 fans on Saturday, March
11, 2006 at the Recreation and Convoca-
tion Center.
UAlban rolled to an 18-4 lead in the
opening seven minutes and never trailed.
Lucious Jordan scored seven of his 18
points in that outburst, including a three-
point field goal from the top of the arc on his
team’s first possession. Wilson added a
three-point play when he was fouled in
transition. Brian Lillis’ tip-in of a missed
foul shot and Jordan's driving layup fin-
ished the run.
Vermont captured the previous three
America East titles, but the Catamounts
could never get closer than 10 points the
rest of the way. UVM was held to 8-of-26
shooting in the period. Meanwhile, Wil-
son, the championship MVP, burieda three-
pointer at the halftime buzzer to give his
squad a 44-26 lead at the intermission.
In the second half, Wilson, who made
10-of-18 from the floor and tied a season-
high with eight rebounds, increased his
team’s lead to 58-36 when he made an-
other three-point play when he was fouled
while going underneath a defender to the
basket. The Great Danes would later push
out to a 27-point advantage when Jordan
drilled a 3-pointer from the left corner with
7:14 remaining.
“My goal when | got here was to put this
program in a position to compete for an
America East title every year,” UAlbany
coach Will Brown offered. “We've won one
this year and | don’t see why we can't
compete for another one next year.”

Great Dane Awards
The University at Albany's Department of Athletics hosts
the Great Dane Awards every May as a celebration of the current
academic year's athletic achievements. The most valuable
players on each of the 19 intercollegiate teams for men and
women are recognized, along with members of the UAlbany
Athletic Director's and Athletic Academic Honor Rolls and the
Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Featured award presen-
tations include the Presidential Scholar-Athlete Awards and
ECAC Merit Medal recipients.
Basketball's Jen Schumacher and track and field's Andy
Allstadt received the 2005-06 Presidential Scholar-Athlete
Awards as the senior male and female with the highest cumu-
lative grade point average. Volleyball's Ashlee Reed, the
America East Woman of the Year, and Stephan Hall, a men's
soccer Academic All-American, were given ECAC Merit Med-
als. Basketball's Jamar Wilson, volleyball's Blair Buchanan and
softball's Casey Halloran were voted the male and female
athletes of the year.
Director of Athletics Lee McElroy (left) presents America East Confer-
ence Woman of the Year Ashlee Reed (right) with the ECAC Merit Medal
as the school's top female student-athlete for 2005-06.
What is a Great Dane?
The University at Albany adopted the
nickname "Great Danes" in the spring of
1965. UAlbany's mascot was founded in
a contest on campus for a $25 savings
bond. The judging committee made the
choice noting, "The Great Dane is noted
for its grandeur, its alertness, and its intel-
ligence. It is an animal whose prowess
and strength are easily recognizable and readily admired."
Contest winner Kathy Earle explained the Great Dane was
renowned for its "size, weight, strength, character, courage,
speed, and stamin:
In the 1960s, UAlbany grew from a college for teachers to
a top research university. The old school mascot, "Pierre the
Pedguin," representing the Pedagogues, seemed inappropri-
ate as the University's mascot and nickname.

BracketBusters
ESPN Bracket Buster 2007
The University at Albany men’s basketball team has been
invited to participate in the BracketBusters series on Feb. 16-
17, 2006. The Great Danes are among 102 teams representing
16 conferences in the event. UAlbany, the defending America
East Conference champion, in joined by Maine in the field.
In its fourth year, BracketBusters is an ESPN television
property that provides potential NCAA Tournament-caliber
teams the opportunity to meetin a two-day, 51-game event. The
format involves “wild-card” pairings for the pool of participating
teams, with half of the BracketBusters teams pre-designated as
“home” and the remaining half as “road” teams.
In an effort to provide an even greater showcase for these
programs, the event has expanded its pool of teams each year
to produce a better cross section of squads. The actual pairings
take place three weeks in advance of the event, and those
match-ups are determined on the basis of regular-season play.
A total of 13 games will be televised, including six games on
ESPN2, five games on ESPNU -- ESPN's collegiate network
that was launched on March 4, 2005, and ESPN 360 - ESPN's
broadband network. ESPN, in consultation with the conference
commissioners, will make pairing decisions for the 13 televised
games on Sunday, Jan. 28. Pairing decisions for the remaining
38 contests will be announced on Monday, Feb. 5.
“Having been fortunate enough to receive nationally tele-
vised games for the past two BracketBusters series, we ex-
tremely excited once again to have two teams chosen to the
BracketBusters pool,” America East Commissioner Patrick
Nero said. “Albany and Maine are expected to be two of our top
programs for the upcoming season, so we couldn't be happier
to have them included in this tremendous event. The chance
to gain national exposure through ESPN's various networks is
a great opportunity for not only Albany and Maine, but also
America East.”
Another important component for BracketBusters partici-
pants is future scheduling. Each team that participates in the
event agrees to enter into a home-and-home series with its to-
be-named opponent. The return game is made in November or
December of the following season. This contest allows for
completion of the two-game series contract andis not part of the
BracketBusters event in that second year.
“We are looking forward to once again participating in this
prestigious event,” said UAlbany coach Will Brown, whose
team dropped a thrilling 70-67 decision to Virginia Common-
wealth in last year's BracketBusters. “Our team enjoyed playing
at VCU on ESPNU last season. It was a great experience for
our program. This event also provides us with an opportunity
to start a home-and-home series against a quality opponent.”
The 102-team field will feature 12 teams from the Mid-
American Conference and Colonial Athletic Association; 11
from the Ohio Valley Conference; 10 from the Missouri Valley
and Metro Atlantic Athletic; nine from the Western Athletic
Conference and Horizon League; eight from the Big West; four
from the Big Sky and Southern; three from the Patriot League
= a2: oe NES
and Big South; two from the America East, Mid-Continent,
Southern, and Southland; and one from the West Coast.
The pool of teams in 2007 represents six Sweet Sixteen
squads, a regional finalist and a Final Four participant from the
last five NCAA Tournaments. George Mason reached the
national semifinals of the 2006 NCAA Tournament, Kent State
advanced to an Elite Eight game in the 2002 NCAA Tourna-
ment, while Southern Illinois (2002), Butler (2003), Nevada
(2004), UW-Milwaukee (2005), Bradley (2006) and Wichita

UALBANY | 69 | BASKETBALL
Dr. Lee A. McElroy Jr. is in his seventh year as the
University at Albany's Vice President and Director of Ath-
letics. McElroy, who provides leadership for UAlbany's
NCAA Division | 19-sport intercollegiate athletics program
for men and women and is a member of the University's
Executive Committee, spearheaded a successful search
for a broad-based athletic conference when the University
accepted an invitation to join the America East Conference
in the 2001-02 academic year.
During his tenure, UAlbany has won 17 conference
championships and made NCAA appearances in men's
basketball, men's lacrosse, softball, women's volleyball, and men's and women's
track and field. In 2004-05, the Great Danes were awarded the Commissioner's
Cup as the America East Conference's top athletic program. McElroy has also
worked to renew the men's and women's basketball crosstown rivalry with Siena
College, led the development of a master plan to upgrade the school's athletic and
recreational complex, plus has energized athletic development efforts.
McElroy, who serves as president of the National Association of Collegiate
Directors of Athletics (NACDA) in 2006-07, was also a key figure as the University
successfully completed the NCAA's second cycle of Division | athletics certification.
He was honored with the 2004 General Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic
Director Award by the All-American Football Foundation.
McElroy, who played football at UCLA in the late 1960s, was previously
American University’s director of athletics for four years. American, a Division |
school in Washington, D.C., competed in the Colonial Athletic Association. In that
period, the AU athletic department upgraded to 19 sports, expanded corporate
partners by 400 percent, and planned capital projects for a fitness facility, intramural
field and soccer stadium. McElroy founded the Eagle Club, the department's
fundraising arm, and developed a program rated as one of the top ten in the nation
in its compliance with NCAA gender equity requirements.
Dr. McElroy served as president of the America East Conference Executive
Committee in the 2003-04 academic year, and has gained national prominence
for his roles with numerous professional organizations and NCAA committees. He
served a three-year term on the NCAA Division | Management Council as one of
four at-large representatives from I-AA or I-AAA conferences. McElroy previously
worked on four prestigious NCAA Committees: Athletics Certification, Financial
Aid, Degree Completion Program, and the NCAA Special Committee on Agents
and Amateurism.
In 1998, McElroy was named to the NACDA Executive Committee for the
University Division, and chair of the Sears Directors Cup Committee. The Sears
Directors Cup is the only national award and academic scholarship program to
recognize all NCAA and NAIA championship sports for women and men.
From 1989-96, McElroy was the director of athletics at California State Univer-
sity-Sacramento. He led the program's transition from Division II to Division | and
engineered a move to the Big Sky and Big West conferences. He also implemented
a strategic plan that developed a corporate partners plan, created an effective
fundraising and marketing program, redesigned academic support services,
improved the athletic facilities complex, and provided for campus and community
outreach programs.
McElroy also worked at the University of Houston from 1981 to 1988 as an
assistant director of men’s and women’s sports and as an associate director of
athletics, and for one year as the director of athletics at The University of the District
of Columbia. Before joining the Houston staff, he taughtin the public school systems
of Santa Monica, California and Beaumont, Texas, and was a high school principal
in Beaumont.
Along with his duties for the NCAA, McElroy has testified before congressional
committees on issues in college athletics, such as gender equity, the welfare of the
minority student-athlete, and the academic/athletic balance. McElroy serves on the
boards of the National Consortium of Academics and Sports, Athletic Business
magazine, and the National Minority Golf Association. He is also a fellow at the
Institute of Ethics and Sportsmanship at the University of Rhode Island.
McElroy, who resides with his wife, Karen, in Slingerlands, earned his B.S. in
political science and history from UCLA in 1970. He later received a M.Ed. from
the University of Southern California, and an Ed.D. from the University of Houston.

America East ...
Since its modest beginning as a men’s
basketball-only conference in 1979, America
East has evolved into one of the most compre-
hensive NCAA Division | conferences with a
commitment to broad-based, competitive ath-
letics programs, complementing the academic
integrity and missions of the member institu-
tions.
Each of the nine institutions - University at
Albany, Binghamton University, Boston Uni-
versity, University of Hartford, University of
Maine, University of Maryland-Baltimore
County (UMBC), University of New Hamp-
shire, Stony Brook University, and University
of Vermont- offers a unique blend of academic
and athletic tradition.
Progressive in its approach to its more
than 3,500 student-athletes, America East
recognizes champions in each of its 22 sports:
men’s and women’s basketball, baseball,
men’s and women's cross country, field
hockey, men’s and women's golf, men’s and
women’s indoor track and field, men’s and
women's lacrosse, men’s and women's out-
door track and field, men’s and women's
soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swim-
ming and diving, men’s and women’s tennis,
and volleyball.
America East also conducts the nation’s
most comprehensive academic recognition
program for student-athletes. More than 1,800
student-athletes with grade-point averages of
3.0 or better were honored in 2005-06 alone.
With a geographic footprint covering the
Mid-Atlantic to Northeast regions of the United
States, America East has a population base of
more than 50 million people and nearly 30
million television homes. America East mem-
ber institutions include more than 106,000
students on the nine campuses and boast
nearly one million living alumni.
Athletic Success...
America East enters its 19th year of all-
sports championship competition on the heels
of one of the most successful seasons in
history as four of its 10 team sport champions
won at least one game in the NCAA Champi-
onship.
Hartford advanced in the NCAA Women’s
Basketball Championship with a 64-58 upset
win over Temple in the first round. In addition,
America East sent Stony Brook to the National
Invitation Tournament in women’s basketball.
Albany's men’s basketball team earned its
first-ever trip to the NCAA Championship by
capturing the league’s regular season and
tournament championships. The Great Danes
held a double-digit second-half lead, but could
not upset top-seeded Connecticut.
Stony Brook's Leonora Joy and Maine's
Kirby Davis, the 2005 America East Women’s and
Men’s Individual cross country champions, respec-
tively, were also the top league finishers at the NCAA
Northeast Regionals. Joy finished 12th, while Davis
was 29th.
The 17th-ranked Boston University field hockey
team captured a 5-3 victory over Central Michigan in
an NCAA Play-In Game. With the win, the Terriers
advanced to the NCAA tournament for the first time
since 2000. They were narrowly defeated in a 4-3
overtime decision by Michigan in the first round.
The Stony Brook men’s soccer team won its first-
ever NCAA Division | Tournament game with a 2-1
overtime victory over Yale. The victory marks the fifth
straight season the America East Champion has
won a first round game in the NCAA Tournament.
The Seawolves advanced to the second round
where they were defeated by eighth-ranked Con-
necticut, 2-0.
The Boston University women’s soccer team
earned a 1-0 win over the University of Connecticut
in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The
Terriers season came to an end as they lost 1-0 to
Boston College in the second round.
New Hampshire's Shannon Daly and Kary
Goodman both competed at the 2006 NCAA Divi-
sion | Women’s Swimming and Diving Champion-
ships.
Albany's Marc Pallozzi and Joe Greene,
Binghamton’s Rory Quiller and Boston University's
Andrea Walkonen all competed at the 2006 NCAA
Outdoor Track & Field Championships. Pallozzi and
Greene earned Division | track and field All-America
honors, as announced by the U.S. Track & Field and
Cross Country Coaches Association.
Academic Success...
America East institutions boasted eight Aca-
demic All-Americans in 2005-06 while another 30
were named All-District.
The conference also honored a top-scholar ath-
lete in each of its 22 championship sports. 2006
America East Scholar-Athletes were Kirby Davis
(Maine men’s cross country), Marisa Ryan (Boston
University women's cross country), Merrie-Beth
Maynard (Vermont field hockey), Stephan Hall (Al-
bany men’s soccer), Debbie Newman (New Hamp-
shire women's soccer), Ashlee Reed (Albany vol-
leyball), Brendon Hitchcock (Binghamton baseball),

More than 1,800 of America East's 3,500 student-athletes
were named to the Academic Honor Roll after receiving grade-
point averages of 3.0 or better. Included in that total were 757
student-athletes who earned a 3.5 or better.
Vermont, whose student-athletes maintained a 3.14 grade-
point average, has been awarded the America East Academic
Cup for the second consecutive season and becomes the first
institution in conference history to win the award three times. It
ties the highest grade-point average in the 11-year history of the
award, which the Catamounts set last season.
Commissioner’s Cup...
Seven league titles, three runner-up finishes and one third-
place showing by its women’s programs led Boston University
to the 2005-06 Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner's Cup. For
the fourth time in five years, the Terriers earned the conference
award that annually recognizes the highest scoring athletic
program in America East as determined by a points system,
which rewards a school for success both during the regular
season and at championship competition in the league’s 22
sports. Boston U. took home the conference crown in women’s
cross country, women's soccer, field hockey, women’s indoor
track & field, women's tennis, women’s golf and women’s
lacrosse. The Terriers were also runners up in women’s basket-
ball, women’s outdoor track & field and softball, while winning
regular-season titles in women’s soccer, field hockey and
women’s lacrosse.
America East in the Pros...
Several America East athletes have extended their playing
careers beyond the collegiate level. Former two-time America
East Players of the Year Craig Claxton of the Atlanta Hawks, and
Malik Rose of the New York Knicks, helped lead the San Antonio
Spurs to a World Championship in 2003. Former Hartford star
Vin Baker of Los Angeles Clippers continued the legacy of the
late Reggie Lewis, when he was selected as an NBA All-Star.
In addition, three-time America East Player of the Year Taylor
Coppenrath has been invited to preseason camp with the
Indiana Pacers.
America East has also been well-represented in the WNBA
as current Hartford head coach Jennifer Rizzotti and former
America East Players of the Year Cindy Blodgett (Maine), Jamie
Cassidy (Maine) and Katasha Artis have played in the top
women's professional league.
Former Hartford star Jeff Bagwell of the Houston Astros
became the 35th player in Major League history to hit 400 home
runs when he homered in a game on July 20, 2003. More
recently, he also helped the Astros reach the World Series for
the first time in franchise history in 2005. Joe Nathan, who
played at Stony Brook andis now atop reliever forthe Minnesota
Twins, was selected to the Major League All-Star game in both
2004 and 2005. Former America East Players of the Year Mark
Sweeney (Maine) of the San Francisco Giants and Kevin Mench
of the Texas Rangers are on 2006 Major League rosters. Jay
Witasick of the Oakland A’s, who played at UMBC, is in his 10th
season in the majors. Several other former America East
players, including 11 draft choices from 2004-05, are presently
in the minor leagues.
Hartford's Jerry Kelly, who recently finished second at the
U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee, joined the PGA Tour in
1996 after turning professional in 1989. Kelly has earned more
than $2 million in each of the last three seasons. He's joined by
former Hawk golfers Tim Petrovic and Patrick Sheehan on the
Tour.
America East also has a number of former men’s and
women’s soccer and men’s lacrosse players in various profes-
sional leagues, including former Boston University standout
Andrew Dorman, who is in his third season with the New
England Revolution of the MLS.
UMBC's men’s lacrosse player Brendan Mundorf, the 2006
America East Player of the Year, r ecently concluded his first
season with the Denver Outlaws of the Major Lacrosse League.
He is one of the top rookie scorers in the league with 17 goals
and 21 points for the Western Division leaders.
History...
To see how far America East has progressed, consider the
conference was established in 1979 as the ECAC North. The
conference at that time consisted of 10 institutions and spon-
sored league competition only in men’s basketball, with the
champion receiving an automatic bid to the NCAA Champion-
ship.
Men's basketball remained the lone league sport until the
1988-89 academic year. At that time, the conference’s Board of
Directors made a new commitment to an all-sports association,
creating the North Atlantic Conference by establishing an office,
hiring a full-time commissioner, and embarking on a building
program.
The North Atlantic Conference merged with the Seaboard
Conference (the league in which Boston University, Hartford,
Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, among others, com-
peted in women’s basketball) in 1989 and the NAC looked to
establish conference championships in several men’s and
women's sports.
The conference changed its name to America East prior to
the 1996-97 academic year and moved the conference head-
quarters to its present location in downtown Boston in 1997.
In 2005, America East hired Patrick Nero, most recently the
Director of Athletics at Maine, as the conference's third commis-
sioner.

ALBANY
NEW YORK’S CAPITAL
Albany, the state capital of New York, offers some-
thing for everyone, and is the center of a region remarkable
for its natural and cultural resources.
The Capital District area represents the cities of
Albany, Schenectady and Troy, and has a population of
approximately 875,000. Within a short distance are the
Berkshires, the Catskills and the Adirondacks, the largest
wilderness area east of the Mississippi River.
Major ski areas such as Killington, Gore, Hunter,
Bromley, Stratton and Mt. Snow are within easy commut-
ing distance. Saratoga Springs, 25 miles to the north, is
internationally known as a sports, concert, and cultural
center, and features outstanding thoroughbred and har-
ness racing at Saratoga Race Track.
Geographically, the city of Albany is only 150 miles
from New York City, 175 miles from Boston, and 225 miles
from Montreal in Canada. The New York State Thruway
and two maior interstate highways intersect one mile from
the main campus. Bus, rail, and air terminals are all within
ten minutes of the University.
Designated an All-America City by the National Civic
League in 1991, Albany is dominated by the Nelson A.
Rockefeller Empire State Plaza, a billion-dollar complex. It
includes government buildings, a convention center, the
state museum, and the state library.
Directly across from the Plaza stands the State
Capitol Building. This majestic five-story structure, in
A skyline view of downtown Albany
existence since 1879, houses the governor's offices and the
chambers of the State Senate and Assembly.
The Plaza has spurred the renovation of a large portion
of historic downtown Albany. You will enjoy exploring the
cosmopolitan area of old townhouses, boutiques and res-
taurants, or attending major sports, entertainment or cultural
events at the Pepsi Arena, the host site for the 2001 NCAA
Division | Ice Hockey Frozen Four, 2002 NCAA Division |
Wrestling Championships, and 2003 NCAA Division | Men's
Basketball East Regional.
This $65.4 million arena seats approximately 17,500
with a 1,700-car parking facility. Pepsi Arena hosts nearly
200 events a year including professional basketball and
hockey games, arena football, rock concerts, trade shows,
and conventions. The arena previously hosted UAlbany’s
spring commencement.
The City of Albany has experienced unprecedented
progress and development during the past fifteen years.
Over $1 billion in economic development projects have
been implemented. The historic link between downtown
Albany and the Hudson River was restored with the opening
of the Hudson River Way Pedestrian Bridge and the con-
struction of a multi-purpose amphitheatre at the Corning
Park. The restoration of the historic Palace Theatre now
provides a venue that complements the Pepsi Arena as a
host to world class entertainers and cultural events.
Four major malls and shopping centers, including
Crossgates, Stuyvesant Plaza and Colonie Center, fall
within one mile of campus. Nightlife in Albany is lively with
concerts, movies, theatre, dancing, and just about every
kind of restaurant or eatery you can imagine. Most attrac-
tions or activities are a short walk or accessible through the
local bus system.

UAlbany Athletics
The University at Albany athletics program continued its success in the 2005-06 athletic year. With
momentum from the 2004-05 Stuart P. Haskell, Jr. Commissioner’s Cup, which recognizes the stron-
gest athletic program in the America East Conference, the Great Danes captured five conference
championships, two regular-season championships, and saw numerous student-athletes garner indi-
vidual accolades, including five All-America honorees.
UAlbany won America East championships in men’s basketball, men’s indoor and outdoor track &
field, women’s outdoor track & field, and softball. In addition, the Great Danes were runners-up in
women’s indoor track & field and men’s lacrosse. Volleyball and men’s basketball also won confer-
ence regular-season titles, led by America East Conference Player of the Years and All-Americans
Blair Buchanan and Jamar Wilson, respectively.
In addition, men’s basketball made its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, becoming
the first Division | program in the State University of New York system to accomplish the
feat. Building on the mantra “Why not us?” the Great Danes nearly became the first 16-seed
to topple a one-seed when they faced the University of Connecticut. Softball became the first women’s
program to make back-to-back trips to NCAA post-season play, while Gered Burns, Joe Greene
and Marc Pallozzi became the first Division | track & field All-Americans for the Great Danes.
UAlbany sponsors 19 NCAA Division | intercollegiate athletic programs, with 18 teams competing
in the America East Conference. Football, a Division I-AA program, has been an associate member of
the Northeast Conference since 1999.
