Bucknell University Athletics
2025-26 Men's Basketball Supporters (July 1, 2025-June 30, 2026)

Great players, great coaches, and an enthusiastic herd of supporters have been the hallmark of Bison Basketball for many decades, and they are the reason Bucknell has been the preeminent program in the Patriot League since its inception in 1990. Bucknell has captured 14 Patriot League regular-season titles -- no other school has more than five -· and the team has made eight NCAA Tournament appearances to go along with three NIT bids.
No matter your level of support to the program, every donor helps the program get closer to its overarching goal of competing for Patriot League championships. Fans and former players are invited and encouraged to show their support for the Bison by investing in Bucknell Men's Basketball and its student-athletes.Â
Thank you for supporting Bucknell Men's Basketball!Â
Outright annual fund gifts to men's basketball are recognized immediately at the appropriate Bison Club level, and will continue to be recognized during the following fiscal year. Minimum donation to be listed is $100. If you would like your name removed from the supporters list, please contact Todd Newcomb at 570-577-1771 or tnewcomb@bucknell.edu.
