Last year’s team posted a magical 30-2 season faces one of his and captured the attention of the nation with a perfect biggest challenges regular season record, a number-one ranking, and a top in his 10-year seed in the NCAA Tournament.

It doesn’t mean we’re not going to have good players, it just means we’re not going to have that set of skills on this particular team.” But the experience of winning 30 times in one sea- son is invaluable and Martelli expects that there should be some lasting effect in the minds of the 10 returning players. “I would hope that they would understand the stan- dard of play that they’re being held to. The sharing of the basketball, the maximum effort on defense on every play – I wholeheartedly expect they know that is how basket- ball is meant to be played,” said the head coach. “The standard to which to play to is number one. The idea that we expect to win is second. Because Jameer’s gone, or because Tyrone’s gone or because Delonte’s gone, that doesn’t mean that we expect to take a step backwards. I expect them to expect to win, and therefore, prepare to win.” SJU has won many times in the last four years and in 2004-05, the Hawks will be seeking a third straight NCAA Tournament berth, a fifth consecutive Atlantic 10 regular season title, and a third straight outright Philadelphia Big 5 crown. But to continue the winning ways, the Hawks are going to have to find more ways to score.

I think that in this day and age, to see players so selflessly give of themselves, from the All-Americans to the walk-ons, the only thing that mattered was the team. What do the achievements of that team do for the expectations of the program this season and in the future? Expectations is the wrong word. What it does first, is now players coming to St. Joe’s or the current team expect and should expect to win.

  • No. 17 St. Joseph's Beats No. 10 Gonzaga in Marquee MSG Matchup
    No. 17 St. Joseph's beats No. 10 Gonzaga in Marquee MSG Match­Up All­America Nelson scores 20 as Hawk Hill takes over the Garden box score NEW YORK (AP) ­­ Jameer Nelson lived up to the billing. Jameer Nelson handled all the hype with 20 points for Saint Joseph's. The second­leading vote­getter on the AP's preseason All­ America team had 20 points, eight rebounds, 10 assists and a ton of oohs and aahs in leading No. 17 Saint Joseph's to a 73­66 victory over No. 10 Gonzaga in the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic on Friday night. The senior guard struggled with his shot in the first half but more than made up for it in the second, seeming to come up with every big play the Hawks needed in the teams' season opener. "People roll their eyes when I self­promote our kids, but he's the best in America because he leads and he believes the reason you play basketball is to make your team win," Saint Joseph's coach Phil Martelli said. Nelson's best sequence came when he drew a charge at midcourt, then took the inbounds pass and made a drive through traffic that left the crowd of 10,328 at Madison Square Garden standing and cheering. "It was great, probably the best game of this season so far," Nelson said, adding comedian to his other talents. More than 4,000 Saint Joseph's fans bought tickets and they turned the building in New York into Philadelphia's Hawk Hill for a night.
