Joined May 2010
Nate, thanks for an amazing 4 years and good luck with #BBN. We will be watching! #rayBucknell #TheBisonWay.
It’s been an amazing ride from Emporium to Bucknell and everywhere in between, and it’s surreal to think my college basketball career isn’t over yet. I’m humbled to get started with @KentuckyMBB! Need to thank God, my family, my coaches, teammates and @UKCoachCalipari #BBN

Pretty good night. A road win, and then on the bus ride home we got to watch our guy @NateSestina23 play a great game for the soon-to-be No. 1 team in the country.

Some folks called this a rebuilding year after we lost three First Team All-League players who combined for 4,801 points. Nope. This group won 21 games, won a co-regular-season championship, made it to the PL title game, and put up one helluva fight. #rayBucknell #TheBisonWay

We lost a treasure today. There was no finer gentleman than Al Yearick. His postgame raps were legendary. His words of encouragement were heartfelt and impactful. He would never accept the praise, but Big Al was a huge part of our team's success over the last 25 years. #RIPBigAl
