The league’s nine men’s head coaches, along with a select media panel, picked the all-Conference teams, as well as the coach, player, newcomer, freshman, sixth man and defensive awards. BYU head coach Dave Rose and San Diego State head coach Steve Fisher shared MWC Coach of the Year honors, while BYU’s Jimmer Fredette was a unanimous selection as the Player of the Year. Additionally, BYU’s Jackson Emery garnered Defensive Player of the Year accolades, New Mexico’s Drew Gordon was selected as the Newcomer of the Year, New Mexico’s Kendall Williams was chosen as the Freshman of the Year and Colorado State’s Pierce Hornung received the Sixth Man of the Year award. Eight student-athletes are repeat selections to the all-Conference list in 2010-11, while the remaining seven make their first appearance on the team. BYU’s Jimmer Fredette becomes the first three-time, first-team honoree in the 12-year history of the Mountain West Conference, while New Mexico’s Dairese Gary and San Diego State’s Kawhi Leonard received first-team accolades for the second straight season. Rose collected his third MWC coaching honor after guiding the Cougars to their sixth Mountain West regular-season title and fourth under Rose. BYU posted a 14-2 record in Conference play this season, matching a school record for most MWC wins. Fisher received his first MWC coaching award after leading the Aztecs to their second Mountain West regular-season crown. San Diego State set a program record for MWC victories en route to a 14-2 finish in Conference play in 2010-11. Fredette, a 6-2, 195-pound senior guard, set a Mountain West Conference single-season record for most points in league play (502), while his 31.4 scoring average was second-best in MWC history.

The San Jose, Calif., product was also second in the Conference in field goal percentage (.556) and fourth in blocked shots (22) in MWC action. Williams, a 6-3, 170-pound forward from Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., was the league’s top freshman scorer this season, averaging 10.1 points in league play. He also averaged 3.7 assists while registering a 1.9 assist-to-turnover ratio against Conference opponents, ranking sixth in the league in both categories. Hornung, a 6-5, 200-pound sophomore forward, averaged 4.3 points and 5.4 rebounds off the bench for the Rams in Conference play in 2010-11. Hailing from Arvada, Calif., Hornung shot 58.9 percent (33-of-56) from the field, while also tallying 20 steals, 11 blocked shots and 10 assists in MWC action.

    La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 2011 Game 1, September 3, 2011: La Salle 44 – North Penn 27 by Kev Hunter, The Reporter North Penn stumbles in loss to La Salle North Penn had two double-digit leads Saturday night against La Salle College High School, but the Knights could not hold on, falling 44-27 at Plymouth-Whitemarsh. The Knights had a 21-10 lead at halftime and a 27-16 lead in the third quarter, but La Salle dominated the fourth. Wide receiver Colin Buckley caught four touchdown passes from Matt Magarity, all in the second half, to make the difference for La Salle in this rematch of last year’s Eastern Final. La Salle has now defeated North Penn three times in the past two seasons. Kyle Mayfield had a 71-yard touchdown run for the Knights and also a 75-yard run to set up another score, but the North Penn secondary could not cover Buckley. His 1-yard touchdown reception put La Salle ahead for good 30-27 in the fourth, and his nine-yarder extended the margin to 37-27. Four fumbles proved costly for the Knights, including the last one, which set up Tim Wade’s clinching five-yard touchdown run for La Salle. North Penn also lost to La Salle to end last season in the state semifinals by a score of 38-35. The Knights were ranked second in the state entering the contest by The Harrisburg Patriot-News but figure to take a tumble this week. by Dennis C.

    Pictured aboved are two of UCLA’s greatest basketball figures – on the left, Lew Alcindor (now Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) alongside the late head coach John R. Wooden. Alcindor helped lead UCLA to consecutive NCAA Championships in 1967, 1968 and 1969. Coach Wooden served as the Bruins’ head coach from 1948-1975, helping UCLA win 10 NCAA Championships in his 24 years at the helm. 111 RETIRED JERSEY NUMBERS #25 GAIL GOODRICH Ceremony: Dec. 18, 2004 (Pauley Pavilion) When UCLA hosted Michigan on Dec. 18, 2004, Gail Goodrich has his No. 25 jersey number retired, becoming the school’s seventh men’s basketball player to achieve the honor. A member of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Goodrich helped lead UCLA to its first two NCAA championships (1964, 1965). Notes on Gail Goodrich A three-year letterman (1963-65) under John Wooden, Goodrich was the leading scorer on UCLA’s first two NCAA Championship teams (1964, 1965) … as a senior co-captain (with Keith Erickson) and All-America selection in 1965, he averaged a team-leading 24.8 points … in the 1965 NCAA championship, his then-title game record 42 points led No. 2 UCLA to an 87-66 victory over No. 1 Michigan … as a junior, with backcourt teammate and senior Walt Hazzard, Goodrich was the leading scorer (21.5 ppg) on a team that recorded the school’s first perfect 30-0 record and first-ever NCAA title … a two-time NCAA Final Four All-Tournament team selection (1964, 1965) … finished his career as UCLA’s all-time leader scorer (1,690 points, now No.

    La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 2013 by Chris Jastrzembski, WEXP Sports Blog, August 11, 2013 Training Camp Preview Today begins the first day of La Salle Sports for the 2013-2014 school year, with practices and tryouts beginning. One of the biggest events during this time is training camp. Throughout these next two weeks, we will have news about what’s going on in camp, including interviews, videos, and possibly new things that have not been done in years past. Let’s take a look at some key stories that we will cover in the next couple of weeks. 1. The arrival of QB Kyle Shurmur This has been the most talked about subject at La Salle since early this calendar year. He’s 6-foot-4 and weighs 210 pounds, and is the son of current Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur. This will be his first year as a starting QB and he also gets to work with offensive coordinator Brett Gordon (Shurmur will be wearing Brett’s old number on the field this season, #9 [editor’s note – right now, it seems to be number 14]). It will be interesting to see what the two-sport athlete (also a swimmer) brings to this team and if he can pick up where current Kutztown QB Chris Kane left off. Shurmur also wanted to play safety this year, but head coach Drew Gordon is not open to that idea for this year only. 2. No-Huddle Offense Along with a new quarterback also comes a new offense Drew Gordon will use this year.

  • Chronicle 2006 Game 1
    La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 2006 Game 1, September 1, 2006: La Salle 29 – Plymouth-Whitemarsh 8 by Rick O’Brien, Inquirer La Salle rolls past PW behind Ashley's 134 yards La Salle running back Chris Ashley probably touched the ball a few more times than usual yesterday because of the rain. Still, he is not concerned that new head coach Drew Gordon will regularly feature a pass-happy attack on a dry turf. "It's the same offense we ran last year," Ashley said. "We usually mix things up pretty good. I know I'll get my share of carries." Showing quickness and strength, the 5-foot-8, 165-pound Ashley carried 23 times for a career-high 134 yards and a touchdown as the Explorers cruised past host Plymouth-Whitemarsh, 29-8, in the nonleague opener for both teams. Drew Gordon, who took over when Joe Colistra stepped down after 21 seasons, was a prolific passer at Bishop McDevitt and Villanova. His son, Brett, was a record-setting quarterback at La Salle in the 1990s and then, following in his father's footsteps, starred at 'Nova. He is La Salle's offensive coordinator. The Explorers have stayed with the multiple-scheme offense they used last year, when Drew and Brett Gordon ran the offense on Colistra's watch. "We'd like to keep it even," Drew Gordon, 56, said. "You go with what the defense gives you." Ashley, who ran for more than 700 yards last season, capped yesterday's victory with an 18-yard TD scamper in the third quarter.

    BC formats_Layout 1 10/2/12 4:21 PM Page 1 BC formats_Layout 1 10/2/12 4:21 PM Page 2 There has never been a better time to be a part of the Boston College men’s basketball family, and I couldn’t be more excited about the future we are creating here in Chestnut Hill. We are proud of our participation in the Atlantic Coast Conference, a league that puts as much emphasis on academic performance as it does on athletic prowess. The ACC features nine universities that rank in the top 50 according to the U.S. News & World Report and also sent five teams to the NCAA Tournament last season. This year, we look forward to bigger and even better things. With one of the youngest teams in the country, I feel as though our potential is unlimited. After going through last season together and taking our trip to Spain in August, our team is ready to take the next step as we progress toward our goal of postseason play. We need to make Conte Forum one of the toughest places to play in the ACC. We have taken steps in my first two seasons to increase the fan base, and as we continue to grow and improve, more and more people will want to show their sup- port for our team. Another goal of ours is to graduate every player in our program because we recruit players not just for four years, but for 40. Receiving a Boston College educa- tion, a Jesuit education, is one of the great predictors of success, and I have no doubt that the education received, and the experiences shared both on and off the court enrich our students’ lives forever.
