Sept. 8, 2018 >> Lewisburg, Pa. >> Mathewson-Memorial Stadium >> 3 p.m. >> Attendance: 1,872 The Pioneers (2-0) powered past the Bison (0-2) behind strong showings by running back Jordan Meachum and quarterback Kevin Duke, who combined for 282 yards on the ground. While Bucknell took a 14-7 lead on a 54-yard pick 6 by Fisayo Oluleye in the middle of the second quar- ter, Sacred Heart scored 23 unanswered points the rest of the way to knock off its second-straight Patriot League opponent. The Pioneer defense had a strong showing, limiting the Bison to 178 yards of total offense and eight first downs over the course of the contest.

Collegiate football is celebrating its 150th anniversary in 2019. The Bucknell football program, which is in its 134th season of competition, is one of the oldest in the country. In November of 1883, a group of students from Lafayette College journeyed west to play a group from the University at Lewisburg in the relatively new sport of football. The players from Lewisburg, whose school would be renamed Bucknell University in 1886, lost that first game, 59-0. Perhaps because of that experience, their school did not play another official game until 1887. Still, the seeds had been planted for a program that would grow into one of the most respected programs in the East by the 1950s. Scores of marvelous players have since donned the Orange and Blue, and each season gives rise to new names, new heroes and ® new legends.

BUCKNELLBISON.COM >> @BUCKNELL_FB >> ATTITUDE >> CHARACTER >> TOUGHNESS 2019 BUCKNELL FOOTBALL MEDIA NOTES >>>> 16 CHRISTY MATHEWSON-MEMORIAL STADIUM CELEBRATES 95 YEARS The Bucknell football team plays its home games in a picturesque, 95-year-old stadium that pays tribute to its university’s numerous war veterans and one of its most distinguished alumni. The stadium, dedicated in 1924 in honor of Buck- nellians who served the United States during the Civil War, Spanish-American War and World War I, was renovated and renamed in 1989 to recognize perhaps Bucknell’s most honored alumnus and one of the true heroes of American sports. Christy Mathewson was one of the five original members of the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. but gained his initial athletic fame as a fullback, punter and dropkicker at Bucknell from 1898 to 1900. One of the truly outstanding players of his era, Mathewson kicked a point-after touchdown in the first varsity game of his freshman year and in the next three years added 13 touchdowns and eight field goals. Mathewson gained national attention when he dropkicked two field goals against Pennsylvania in 1899 and added a 45-yard field goal against Army the following year. As a result, he was named the “12th man” on Walter Camp’s 1900 All-America team. The facility that bears Mathewson’s name has seen plenty of transformation over the last few decades. A new locker room and weight room were constructed in 1987. The locker room was later fully renovated in the summer of 2017. The Tom Gadd Weight Room was updated with brand new equipment in 1999 and again in 2014, allowing Bison players an outstanding facility for daily use and weight training. In 1988, the horseshoe edifice was totally resur- faced and new seating was added. New concession stands, restrooms, ticket booths and souvenir stands were added a year later, along with an eight-lane, CIRCA 1920 CIRCA 1940 all-weather track, which was resurfaced in 2017. The section at the south end of the stadium was landscaped in 1988, and a new scoreboard and message board were added. Other upgrades include new lights, which feature a nearly 10-fold increase in candle power. A FieldTurf playing surface was initially installed in the summer of 2001 as a gift from Norm Garrity ’63 and his wife, Mary Lou (Roepel) ’64. That surface was replaced during the summer of 2012 with state-of-the- art synthetic grass. Notably, Bucknell was one of the first Division I schools to install FieldTurf as a full-time playing surface in a football stadium. CIRCA 1955 CIRCA 1970 In 2019, Christy Mathewson-Memorial Stadium will celebrate its 95th year and 30th year since its rechristening.

Sanders’s play and the energy displayed on the Bison sideline were highlights of head coach Aug. 31 >> Philadelphia, Pa. >> Lincoln Financial Field >> 3 p.m. >> Attendance: 26,378 Dave Cecchini’s debut. The Owls, Bucknell’s first FBS opponent since 2015, used stout defensive play, particularly in the first quarter, and a banner game by quarterback Anthony Russo to take the first meeting between the once long-time rivals since 1970. “I’m really proud of how we sustained our effort in the second half,” Cecchini said. “We had some great drives on offense. We moved the football but couldn’t finish. We made some three- and-outs on defense, and we did it playing a lot of third-team guys. Unfortunately, we gave up a couple of big plays, and that was young guys making mistakes. We can live with that.” Temple (1-0) set the tone early, covering 75 yards in 12 plays to score a touchdown on its opening drive. By the end of the first quarter, the Owls held a 21-0 lead; they posted 229 yards of total offense and 12 first downs while limiting the Bison to a single first down and 22 passing yards. Bucknell (0-1) chipped away at Temple’s edge during the second quarter. After the Owls scored a touchdown on their first possession of that frame to make it a 28-0 game, the Bison put together the next two scoring plays. Pringle’s pick 6 gave the Bison new life with 8:13 on the clock. The freshman stepped in front of a Russo pass and dashed 36 yards up the sideline to the end zone; a failed extra point kept the score at 28-6. Bucknell’s defense forced a punt on Temple’s next possession. John Chiarolanzio then en- gineered an eight-play, 60-yard drive capped by a 37-yard Ethan Torres field goal; the highlight of that drive was a sprawling, one-handed grab by Sanders on a Chiarolanzio deep ball that advanced the Bison 42 yards to the red zone. The Owls ultimately went into the intermission up by a 35-9 margin after Russo found Re’Mahn Davis for a 51 yard touchdown with 1:02 remaining in the half. They held sizable advantages in TEAM STATISTICS GAME NOTES total offense (427-66) and first downs (22-4) at that point in the contest.
