Andrew Funk Earns Second Team All-Patriot League Honors
2/28/2022 2:58:00 PM | Men's Basketball
LEWISBURG, Pa. – On the heels of a sensational 2021-22 regular season, Bucknell senior Andrew Funk has earned a spot on the PenFed Credit Union All-Patriot League Second Team. Funk, the Patriot League's No. 2 scorer at 17.7 points per game, garnered his first career all-conference citation.
The lone senior on this year's Bucknell squad, Funk has ranked among the Patriot League's top two scorers all season long, and he is a three-time Patriot League Player of the Week honoree. He has joined an elite list of Bison players to crack 500 points in a season, and with 530 entering the Patriot League Tournament, he is just 20 points away from moving into the top 10 on Bucknell's single-season points chart.
Funk has three 30-point games and 12 20-point games this season, including a career-best 38-point performance at Illinois State on Nov. 20. He is one of only 28 players in the nation to record 28 or more points in a game five times.
Funk has been a workhorse for the Bison this season. His average of 36.4 minutes per game ranks second in the Patriot League and 18th nationally, and he ranks eighth among all Division I players in total minutes and ninth in total field-goal attempts.
Funk reached the 1,000-point mark at Holy Cross on Jan. 22, and he has since climbed to 24th on Bucknell's all-time scoring list with 1,196 career points. Funk also ranks eighth in school history with 184 made 3-pointers.
Funk joined his older brother, Tommy, in the ranks of All-Patriot League honorees, and they are now the first brother combination in league history to both earn All-PL honors. Tommy Funk was a two-time all-league selection for Army in 2019 and 2020.
Bucknell capped off the regular season with an 89-78 win over Boston University on Saturday, and the Bison head into the Patriot League Tournament as the No. 9 seed. Bucknell takes on No. 8 Lafayette in the first round on Tuesday at 7 p.m.
