Mark Brotherton was a standout midfielder and the first Bucknell soccer player to be named all-conference four straight years.

He was co-MVP of the Western Section of the ECC and a Tri-State All-American in 1981 and 1982. Brotherton, who was the first Bison player selected to compete in the Senior Bowl Soccer Classic, registered 21 goals and 12 assists for 54 points in his career. At graduation he ranked fourth on Bucknell's career assists list and sixth in both goals and points. Brotherton helped lead the Bison to 32 victories in his four-year career, including a 22-9-2 mark as a junior and senior captain. Also a terrific defender, Brotherton contributed to 23 shutouts in his career, 15 coming in his final two seasons. A Christy Mathewson Award winner as the top athlete in his senior class, Brotherton was the eighth member of the soccer program to be enshrined in the Hall of Fame.
