The freshman-to-sophomore retention rate for La Salle students is over 85%. That compares to a national average of around 60%.

La Salle is located in , the fifth largest city in the . Whether you seek cultural opportunities or historical sites, social opportunities or just the chance to meet people from all over the world, there are few places like Philly.

The New York Times, Barron's and Money Magazine all selected La Salle as one of the best buys in higher education. That selection was based on value received versus cost to the family.

incorporates all 23 sports. He also works in con- junction with the department's athletic training and

sports medicine staff in assisting w ith the rehabili- tation of athletic-related injuries.

n the La Satlc In

La Salle University's Strength & Conditioning program is designed to maximize the student-athletes' performance. This is accomplished through the use of orthopedically safe, physiologically sound exercises and comprehensive total body training.

By systematically and progressively overloading the muscles trained and holding the student-athlete accountable for each repetition of each exercise of every workout, the program ensures consistent and marked strength gains.

The program maximizes the time spent in the weight room and on the court preparing for the competition by making the workouts purposeful. The focus is on teaching the student-athlete, through tactically sound preparation and technique, to produce a maximal effort on a consistent and improving basis.

12 Philadelphia Philadelphia Big Five

The phenomenon of Philadelphia basketball is something that people outside the area may never under- stand. A game between two of the Big 5 schools - La Salle, Pennsylvania, St. Joseph's, Temple, and Villanova

- in the Palestra is a fascinating thing to watch. Year-in and year-out, games between these schools create a buzz that lasts all year long. Every year there seems to be an upset and a new hero.

Each of the five schools has had a team that ranked among the best nationally. La Salle saw its

1951-52 squad win the NIT Championship, which was the big title game of that era. The 1953-54 Explorers won the NCAA Championship. Two of the best teams in La Salle history were the 1968-69 Explorers who went 23-1, and the 1989-90 team that went 30-2.

The 1970-71 went 28-1, losing in the NCAA East Regional final. St. Joseph's 1964-65 team, coached by ESPN's , finished 26-3. Temple's 1987-88 team with finished 32-2, while the 1984-85 won the 1985 NCAA Championship in an improbable fashion. To understand Philadelphia basketball, people need to understand the Palestra, on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania. Here are some people's thoughts on the Palestra and Philadelphia basketball...

Sports Illustrated writer Alexander Wolff - "Not Cameron, not Mac Court, not the Pit - the Palestra is my shrine. It's college hoops' Quaker meeting house, where an entire city, not just one school, comes together in brotherly fashion. I love the roof, the floor, the sight lines, the energy from the fans as they rub elbows with one another - and the soft pretzels you can buy as you exit into the winter night."

Penn Quakers Head Coach - "The Palestra is arguably the finest facility in the country. When you think of the Palestra, you think of 'aura, color, and excitement.' I have been fortunate enough to experience the Palestra as a spectator, player and coach. If I had to play my last basketball game, that's the place I'd choose to play."

Dallas-based writer Joe Rhoades, who in 1985 traveled the country watching basketball games - "This is a place with magic in the air. The Palestra has the acoustics of a big bass drum. It's a basketball echo chamber where every sound is amplified, where 100 people sound like a thousand, where a thousand sound like 10,000, and where 10,000 sound like nothing you've ever heard before. When the bleachers are full and the games are good, this is the best place to watch a college basketball game in America. It is the best basketball gymnasium in the country - by far."

The legendary Palestra on '%'* the campus of the University ofPennsylvania has hosted more college basketball Hi^K WS^. games than any facility in .*•* America. The arena has • hosted over 50 NCAA Tournament games > through the years.

21 What some of Hahn's former players say about the coach...

"Coach Hahn is the main reason I went to Maryland. I met him when I was a little kid at camp and he always remembered me. He helped me through some really tough times and when I got to Maryland he treated me like a son. Coach Hahn prepared me for the next level. There is no doubt in my mind that part of the reason I've been so successful in the NBA is because of the hours he put in working with me on my handle and jump shot. He helped me learn how to become a more explosive and efficient player." - Steve Francis, NBA Rookie of the Year, Houston Rockets

"I was always ready to play at Maryland and part of the reason was because Coach Hahn had us fired up. He is just a great coach and leader. I've never been around a guy with as much energy and passion for the game of basketball." - Joe Smith, #1 NBA Draft Pick, Detroit Pistons

"The thing that impressed me most about Coach Hahn was his creativity as a coach. It was mainly his idea to give me some minutes at the spot while I was at Maryland and that allowed me to take advantage of smaller defenders. When I had bigger guys on me he helped design ways to isolate me on the wing or rub me off screens for scoring opportunities." - Walt Williams, NBA Lottery Pick, Houston Rockets

"Coach Hahn is a motivator who brings out the best in his players. He is great at utilizing our strengths and eliminating our weaknesses. His basketball IQ is unbelievable. He worked with me on my individual moves and helped me find new ways to score!" - Juan Dixon, Ail-American, 1st Team All-ACC

"Coach Hahn believed in me when no one else did. When I got to Maryland I was overweight and out of shape. No one thought I could play in the ACC, but he had the confidence in my skills and desire. He taught me how to play hard and improve my shot and post moves. He is a tremendous motivator!" - Obinna Ekezie,

22 Assistant Coach - Roland Houston

Roland Houston, who enters his third season with the Explorers, knew that the dis-

tance between Martin Luther King High in Philadelphia to La Salle University was

approximately five miles. Yet it took Roland Houston 21 years to make the trip.

Houston, who joined the Explorer staff in mid-September of 1999, has done quite

a bit of traveling since his high school graduation in 1978. That travel took him to the University of Rhode Island, and such overseas basketball stops as Nice, LeMans and

Limoges, all in France, then on to Spain, Argentina and Israel.

Among his most memorable visits were to Limoges, where he caught up with an old friend and rival, former La Salle and West Catholic High great Michael Brooks, who still maintains residence in France. "Michael and I had played against each other and with each other a good while back in Philadelphia and it was great being with him and competing with and against him," Houston said.

When he enrolled at Rhode Island, his coach was Jack Kraft, who had coached Villanova to 1 1 post-season tournaments before heading to New England. "I was the first player coach Kraft took from Philadelphia," Houston said, "and I still try to stay in touch with him since he's not too far away down in Stone Harbor (New Jersey)."

At Rhode Island, in what was then called the Eastern 8 before becoming the Atlantic 10, Houston played four seasons, started for three and was captain in his senior year. Houston ironically enough was recruited to the

University of Rhode Island by current Explorer head coach Billy Hahn, who was an assistant with the Rams at the time. All of Houston's time wasn't taken up with hoops. As a communications major, he wrote for the school newspaper, produced jazz shows and did an occasional stint on the campus station.

While playing professionally overseas, he also got a taste of coaching and the business side of basketball, preparing him for life after playing. He became involved in several ventures, including acting as a consultant for

NBA players and would-be NBA players and always had his eyes on getting into coaching full tilt.

Born in South Philadelphia, Houston transferred from Southern High to Martin Luther King early in his career and continued on his journey which has now taken him to La Salle University. Coach Houston and his wife

Lisa live in Cherry Hill, New Jersey with their daughter Zuri.

Coach Hahn on Houston: Roland was the first young man that I recruited to the University of Rhode Island out of the city of Philadelphia. Over the years, our relationship has grown, both as a friend and a coach. It is amazing to me that many years later, I would have the chance to work side-by-side with him. It is a big asset to have such a good player from the city of Philadelphia on the staff. Assistant Coach - Joe Lombardi

Joe Lombardi begins his career with the Explorers after coaching at St. Bonaventure

from 1992-2001. Lombardi helped orchestrate a dramatic reversal in the fortunes of

St. Bonaventure basketball before coming to La Salle. Lombardi is in his first season at

La Salle and his 20th as a college coach.

The Bonnies' success in 1999-2000 was perhaps the highlight of Lombardi 's career.

With his help, the Bonnies went 21-10, advanced to the NCAA Tournament, reached the

championship game of the Atlantic 10 Tournament and set a school record for conference

wins with 1 1.

Lombardi also has been a part of two NIT teams at St. Bonaventure, 1997-98 and 1994-95. Helping lay the foundation for St. Bonaventure's success, Lombardi has been involved in the recruitment of such Atlantic 10 All- League players as Caswell Cyrus, Peter Van Paassen, J.R. Bremer and . Time and time again,

Lombardi has tirelessly scoured the world in search of players who would be the right fit for St. Bonaventure.

As an assistant to at St. Francis (PA) from 1987-92, Lombardi was a major contributor to the success the Red Flash enjoyed. During his tenure, St. Francis went 74-71 overall, including records of 17-10 in

1989-90 and 24-8 in 1990-91. The latter season marked a championship and the school's first-ever trip to the NCAA Tournament.

The native of Sharon, Pa., served as assistant coach at St. Francis from 1987-89 before being promoted to assistant head coach in 1989. He was involved in all aspects of the Red Flash program, including administrative responsibilities and scheduling.

Lombardi is a 1981 honors graduate of Youngstown State University, where he received his degree in education. He was a two-year letterman and team captain from 1979-81. He began his basketball coaching career as a graduate assistant at Ohio University in 1981-82.

Lombardi returned to Youngstown State as a restricted earnings coach during the 1982-83 season before being named an assistant coach at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, serving there from 1984-87.

He was a member of the coaching staff of the Panamanian National Team in 1992, which participated in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament of the Americas against the United States "Dream Team." Coach Lombardi and his wife Janet have three children - Dominic, Alyssa and Dante. They reside in

Blue Bell, PA.

Coach Hahn on Lombardi: He adds tremendous experi- ence to our staff. Every step he has taken in coaching, success has followed. I am very fortunate to have him on my staff. Assistant Coach - John Gallagher

John Gallagher is now in his third season as an assistant coach with the Explorers. When he was hired prior to the 1999-2000 season, Gallagher, at the ripe age of 22, was the youngest assistant coach in Division I basketball. Despite this, he brought plenty of experience with him. Gallagher served as the Director of the Main Line Basketball team for the Sonny Hill League for two years and coached in the high school league. He was the creator and founder of the Delaware Valley Elite AAU Program.

In his playing days, Gallagher was a guard at St. Joseph's University for three years. He was a member of their magical Sweet 16 run in the NCAA Tournament and played against top-ranked Kentucky in the tourney. John was also a starter for three years at Cardinal O'Hara High School where he earned All-City Honorable Mention and All-Catholic Honors his senior season.

With his addition to the La Salle staff, Gallagher became the first of a basketball-wealthy family to enter the coaching ranks. His sister Ann was the point guard for the Explorers' Women's Basketball team from 1993-97 and another sister Joan was a four-year starter from 1992-96 at Boston College. His eldest sister Kathleen is a professor in the History Department here at La Salle.

Coach Hahn on Gallagher: John is a young, exciting coach, who brings a tremendous passion to his coaching every day. He has a bright future ahead of him in coaching.

Director of Basketball Operations - Matt Hahn

Matt Hahn is in his first season as a coach with the Explorers. He played at the University of Maryland from 1996-2000. Hahn was elected captain of the 1999-00 Terrapins. He was a member of four NCAA tournament teams and two "Sweet 16" teams. After joining the team as a walk-on, Hahn earned a scholarship.

While at Maryland, he was named as a four-time member of the Atlantic (Oast Conference All-Academic Honor Roll and to the Omicron Delta Kappa National Leader and Honor Society. He was a member of the Universitj of Maryland Student Athlete Council. Hahn also developed his skills as an intern in the Wl S A Spoils Department, as an anchor with the Terp TV News Department, and as a reporter and play-by-play man for the \\ All t Sports Department Along with being named to the Atlantic Coast Conference academic honor roll. Hahn was named to University of Maryland Athletic Directors Honor Roll lour times, earned the Maryland President's Cup Vward,

25 The 2001-02 basketball season is upon us, and

with it has come many changes to the landscape of La Salle basketball and the Atlantic 10 Conference. The Explorers have a new leader, two new assistant coaches

and five new players. As for the conference, there is a new team in the league - Richmond - as well as seven new men's basketball coaches.

One of those new faces is leading the Explorers - Billy Hahn. He comes to La Salle from the University of Maryland, where he spent 12 years as Gary Williams' right-hand man.

ble-digit rebounding games^Jtecorded a career-high 1 7 Quints versus Old Dominion... Prior

to College - Okosa averaged 21 points. 10 rebounds, and five blocks as he was named

Gatorade Player of the Year in the state of Delaware in his senior season in high school... Was

named First Team All-Conference and All-State in his senior campaign... Named one of the Junior top 15 centers by Hoop Scoop magazine. ^Kf Forward 6-9, 225 Why Did You Choose La Salle:WAV. 1I chosei that 1 could play in a better league and

closer to home... The competition at Virgi iPnwealth was good, but I wanted to play Claymont, DE in a league with stronger competition lei in the Atlantic 10 is much higher Brandywine High than it is in the Colonial Athletic Assoc" is also about 30 to 35 minutes from

my home in Delaware... My family is important to me and playing closer to home will give

them a chance to see me play more often.

On Coach Hahn: First and foremost, he has brought a lot of enthusiasm and hope... Many people would get excited about the season early on in the past few seasons, but after the first five or six games, that would die down... Coach

Hahn has such an energy level and a drive that he'll make sure that doesn't happen.

older sister Michelle was a star player with the Villanova women's basketball team in the early 990s.

Why La Salle: I chose La Salle for the education and a chance in the Atlantic 10

Conference... Education comes first for me, and I knew that La Salle would push me to be a

better student and person.

Sophomore Guard 6-2, 170 Havertown, PA Monsignor Bonner

Why La Salle: I came to La Salle for the great academics and the fact that it was close enough to home but not too close.

Why Basketball: I always entertained the notion of walking-on to the basketball team,

and then it happened. I was playing in the gym one day when Coach Lombardi asked me

my name and recommended that I come by to visit Coach Hahn. Coach Hahn asked me to work out with the team, and then he invited me onto the squad after workouts and the recom- mendations of other players.

Academic Goals: I would like to attend graduate school for accounting to become a CPA, and eventually, I'd like to attend law school.

Basketball Goals: This year, I hope to just help out the team in whatever way possible.

I will continue to work on my game and hopefully earn more playing time next season.

Playing in the Atlantic 10: It's kind of weird actually being in uniform now because last

year I was at every game. It's a whole lot different being in the stands and seeing some of

these big names on TV . . . now I am on the floor playing against these guys, and it's a little overwhelming. Avenel, NJ Union Catholic

50 The 2000-01 Explorers entered their season knowing they had three of the top players in the Atlantic 10

Conference, in Rasual Butler, Victor Thomas and Julian Blanks. The challenge was to find another scoring option for the offense.

Butler entered the season as a nominee for the Award, given to the top collegiate player in the nation. Though he did not win the award, Butler showed that he belonged as one of the top players in the nation.

Butler led the team in scoring for the second straight season, this year finishing with a 22.1 points-per-game average. He led or tied for the team lead in scoring 16 times. Butler was named to the First Team All- Atlantic 10 after having been named Second Team after his sophomore season.

To complement Butler, Thomas continued to elevate his game, as he raised his scoring average to 19.7 points per game. He led or tied for the team lead in scoring 1 1 times. Thomas also led the team in rebounding for the second consecutive season, this time averaging 6.8 boards per game. He led the team in rebounding nine times and finished ninth in the Atlantic 10 in rebounding.

Delivering the ball to these two high powered scorers was Julian Blanks, who had more assists than turnovers for the third straight season. Blanks upped his scoring average, rebounding average, and assists per game average for the third consecutive season as well. He averaged 6.0 assists per game, which placed him second in the

Atlantic 10. Blanks has upped his assists for 97 as a freshman, to 135 as a sophomore, and to 174 last season. In doing so, he has climbed to seventh all-time at La Salle in career assists.

The trouble the Explorers had throughout the season was finding another consistent scorer. The next leading scorer was Garrett Bragg, who averaged 6.2 points per game, but he missed five games due to injury. As the season unfolded, Thomas or Butler led the team in scoring in the first 19 games of the season. One time during that string, Blanks tied Butler for the team high. These three led the team in scoring in every game last season.

In the season-opening trip to the Sooner Invitational, the Explorers defeated UNC-Wilmington in the opener, before falling to Oklahoma in the Championship game. The Explorers had a hard fought game, then fell to a late run. The Explorers were done-in by the Sooners bench, as the Sooners bench out-scored the Explorers bench 35-3.

After splitting the next six games, the Explorers headed to the Christmas break with a 4-4 record. After defeating Drexel, the squad headed to California to play in the Golden Bear Classic. After beating Lafayette in overtime, the Explorers struggled against the Bears. La Salle saw its five starters - Blanks. Butler. Thomas. Anwar

Wilson, and Garrett Bragg - play a majority of the minutes in the two games. These five also scored all but two ot the points in the team accumulated in the two games.

Entering the conference schedule at 5-5, the Explorers played four of the first seven games on the road and this contributed to their losing six of the first seven conference games. After a heartbreaking loss at Rhode Island,

in double overtime, La Salle rebounded by winning three of the next four. After witnessing Butler pour in a career- high 39 points in the Explorers loss at Rhode Island. Thomas responded 10 days later as La Salle defeated the Rains at the Tom Gola Arena. Thomas lit up Rhode Island for a career high 35 points. He had plenty oi help that da\ as

Butler added 23 points and Wilson cleared a career-best 16 rebounds. Not to be outdone on the day, Blanks dished out 15 assists, a career-high that came within three of the school record.

After this, the Explorers dropped four straight before closing oul the regular season at home against

nationally-ranked St. Joseph's. In a classic Big Five/Atlantic lo game, the Explorers pulled out a one-point win,

91-90, despite a remarkable IS points in the final minute by the Hawks Marvin O'Connor I he Explorers balance on this night helped lead them to victory. Thomas scored 26. with Butler adding 25, and Blanks chipping m with 20.

Following this emotional win. il was onto the Atlantic 10 Tournament to lace lordhain. With its \ielor\

over the Rams, La Salle accomplished a rare hat trick, as it defeated lordhain lor the thud tune on the season \tiei

this win, the Explorers faced St. Joseph's fol the second tune in five days aiul ihe third Straight season in the Atlantic

From 1970 to 1974 he was a member of the English and Religion Departments at South Hills Catholic High School in Pittsburgh, Pa. While a graduate student at the University of Notre Dame, he taught under- graduate courses in the Theology Department and was an instructor in the residence hall training seminars and assistant rector of Grace Hall.

His first teaching experience at La Salle was as a visiting instructor in the Graduate Religion program in the summer of 1978. He was also an assistant professor at Washington Theological Union from 1979-84. From 1986 to 1990 he was a visiting instructor at Loyola University's Summer Institute of Pastoral Studies.

In 1984 Brother McGinniss joined the faculty at La Salle on a full-time basis, eventually reaching the rank of full professor in 1993. Recognized by the DeLaSalle Christian Brothers for his qualities as a leader, he attended La session internationale des etudes lasalliennes (a program of study of Lasallian spirituality) in Rome in 1991. He became Chair of La Salle's Religion Department that year and the following year he received the Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching. Also in 1992 he was appointed Vice President of La Salle University Corporation. In 1995 he became a member of La Salle's Board of Trustees.

130 Dr. Thomas Brennan has ushered in a new era in La Salle Athletics since his appointment as the

school's fifth Director of Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation on September 18, 1997. He guides

the school's 23-sport Division I Athletic program.

"La Salle has a proud and respected tradition of intercollegiate competition and I am excited to lead the department into the next millennium," Brennan said. "You must have integrity in your program. You must have a program which emphasizes the educational mission of athletics. You must

also strive for excellence in the athletic arena. I know that these are all important at La Salle and that

is what attracted me." Since coming to La Salle, Brennan has enhanced many areas within the Athletic Department, including the formation of the Explorer Club, a fundraising/booster organization, and the introduction of an active Corporate Partners/Athletic Sponsorship Program. Membership in the Explorer Club has more than doubled during his tenure. Corporate partnerships have been established with many local businesses and corporations. During his tenure, the Philadelphia Big 5 has been rejuvenated, the Tom Gola Arena has been dedicated, the Alumni Hall of Athletes' Program has been expanded and many other initiatives have been introduced in an effort to enhance the overall program.

Under Brennan's guidance, La Salle Athletics has enhanced its commitment to Youth Outreach and Community Service. La Salle was selected, by the NCAA, as one of only 20 schools to participate in a national program with the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Organization (Campus Pals). La Salle has also been recognized by the National Consortium for Academics and Sport for having one of the most active and expansive outreach programs in the country. Dr. Brennan serves as a member of the Executive Committee for the Philadelphia Sports Congress, and as a member of the Board of Directors for the Big Brother and Big Sister Association of Philadelphia. He has served as Chair for the Atlantic 10 Conference Post-Graduate Scholarship Committee and the Television Committee, and as a member of the Atlantic 10 Women's Basketball Committee, and the Student- Athlete Advisory Council. Dr. Brennan is also a member of the Executive Committee for the National Consortium for Academics and Sport.

Brennan was the Athletic Director at San Jose State University from 1990-97, moving the school from the Big West Conference to the Western Athletic Conference. During his administration, graduation rates for student-athletes more than doubled as did participation by women in intercollegiate athletics, as the university was recognized for Title IX compliance efforts by the Office of Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of Education. In addition, annual athletic contributions increased three-fold, while $6 million was raised for a new field house and administrative complex.

Prior to his tenure as the Athletic Director at San Jose State, Brennan was the Director of Athletics at Loyola College in Maryland from 1986-90. During that time, Brennan successfully moved Loyola from the Northeast Conference into the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. The Greyhounds became national contenders in men's and women's lacrosse and men's soccer and competed for the NCAA Division I Championships in each of these sports. While at Loyola, Brennan was a member of the Board of Directors for the Maryland Special Olympics.

From 1980-86, Brennan worked at the University of New Mexico, first as Assistant Athletics Director and then Associate Athletics Director for Advancement. At the time of his departure, he oversaw the fundraising. media relations, sponsorship, marketing, sales and athletic alumni efforts. Part of his duties included establishing a statewide radio and television network. Prior to that, he oversaw the NCAA compliance program and academic support area of the department.
