Announcing the Bucknell Men's Basketball Team of the Decade
9/7/2020 1:10:00 PM | Men's Basketball
LEWISBURG, Pa. -- What a decade! The period from 2010-19 saw the Bucknell men's basketball team capture eight Patriot League regular-season titles, four Patriot League Tournament titles and make four NCAA Tournament and three NIT appearances. The Bison posted an overall record of 215-116 (.650) and a Patriot League record of 128-36 (.780) in the decade. That level of success cannot be achieved without tremendous players, and the talent in the program in that 10-year span was staggering. So we asked our fans to take on the difficult task of selecting an All-Decade Team. Online voting was conducted last week, and after more than 170 ballots were submitted, it is now time to announce the three five-man All-Decade Teams. Thank you to everyone who voted, and a special thanks to Mid-Penn Engineering and Mid-Penn Energy for sponsoring the All-Decade Team.
