By Erin Izydorczak Staff Writer The lacrosse team lost in the last three Atlantic 10 conference games, but it is showing a lot of improvement, according to Coach Ryan Lynn. “I think we have become better as a team. We have battled to the very last second in each of the game,” Lynn said. In…
Junior prom is here, and when it comes to proms, Bonnies do it best. Night number one of this fun-filled weekend will be a Jock Jams party in the Skeller. Whoever chose this theme obviously knows what they’re doing when it comes to party planning because the meaning of Jocks Jams is crystal clear. Googling…
By Zach Waltz Sports Assignment Editor I think it’s safe to say that nobody predicted that both the University of Connecticut’s men’s and women’s basketball teams would win their respective national championships, except maybe a percentage of the people who live in Connecticut. This is not the first time both Huskies’ basketball teams won the national…

By Eustace Q. Browne Staff Writer The St. Bonaventure softball team (4-22,1-2) has had a difficult first half to its season, but after playing 23 games on the road the team is looking forward to a little home cooking as it continues an important 12-game home stand.

By Eustace Q. Browne Staff Writer As their season rolls along, the St. Bonaventure softball team (3-20) continues to slide further into the Atlantic 10 conference’s cellar. The Bonnies return home after falling twice in Vestal, N.Y. to the Binghamton Bearcats (9-10) on April 1. Coach Michael Threehouse expressed his concern about the team’s attitude…
By Taylor Nigrelli Sports Editor Because St. Bonaventure is such a small school that hasn’t fielded a varsity football team in 62 years, its connection to pro football is often overlooked. So, when Buffalo Bills (the geographically closest NFL franchise to St. Bonaventure) owner Ralph Wilson died last week, it’s unlikely many people thought he…
By Pat Tintle Staff Writer The Bonnies continued their spring season last weekend as they traveled to Maryland for the Towson Invitational. Despite finishing in a tie for 19th place with Siena, Head Coach John Powers saw some encouraging aspects come out of his team. “For the spring season, you’re not really focused on results…

By Gavin Lindahl Assistant Sports Editor The baseball team suffered a sweep in its three-game series against Atlantic 10 opponent Virginia Commonwealth University this past weekend. Perhaps the most glaring loss of the series was Saturday’s lopsided 17-5 defeat. According to Coach Larry Sudbrook, the score was a result of the Bonnies’ lack of scoring…
By Pat Tintle Staff Writer While golf may not be known as the typical team sport, there are competitive relationships developing between Bonnie golfers on the course. “Obviously, golf is an individual sport,” senior Chris Mackey said. “But I don’t think a lot of people understand the team aspect is so important when trying to…
