SYRACUSE, NY – Syracuse has added Bucknell to its 2011-12 non-conference schedule with a December 20 date at the Carrier Dome. The Orange has an 8-1 series advantage although the Bison won the last meeting, 74-69, in 2005-06.
Head coach Dave Paulsen led Bucknell to a 25-9 overall record and 13-1 Patriot League mark last winter. The Bison captured the Patriot League Tournament title with wins against Army, Lehigh, and Lafayette. The 72-57 victory over Lafayette was enough to earn the Bison a spot in the NCAA tournament, its fifth tournament berth in program history. The 14th-seeded Bison fell in the first round of the NCAA tournament to eventual NCAA champion Connecticut.
Paulsen was the head coach at St. Lawrence (1994-97), LeMoyne (1997-2000) and Williams before his hiring at Bucknell in 2008. He guided Williams to the 2003 NCAA Division III Championship.
